Its to bad that only really now that this is happening. Meaning vast comments about self defense/vs personal and property rights.
Maybe its the focus from the gentleman down in Texas that has brought this to the surface, or to just my attention.
Actually maybe it is just me realizing for the first time that this is a possibility that any one of us might face one day.
I would only hope that if I am ever faced with something similar, that I will act logically.
I am sure that there are times in these situations that one might "go" for the gun and only cause more problems. I am sure that there might be zero chances for going for the gun, all one can wish for is the best. And of course there might be that possibly that a weapon of sorts will make a positive out come to a situation such as this. All I wish for is that the people that the offenses are being committed to act rationally for their best interest. In other words, think before grabbing the gun.
Hope that makes sense. I think congrats the west valley man and his family for making it out of a nasty situation physically ok.
And for the record, for any prick that puts me/or my family in a similar situation, they best watch out. Because if the opportunity is there, I will take it and the outcome will not be pretty.
rant off.
oh and for the record, one might pick up the book called
deep survival. It talks about actions and thought pattern that lead to either survival or lack of.
