[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] It only takes a miniscule moment to identify whether an intruder is harmless or not. The Third Rule of Gun ownership is "ALWAYS know your target," - this means never shoot something until you know for certain what it is and whether or not you really need to kill it, or whether scaring it will do, or whether you can go ahead and put your gun away because it's only your houseguest making a midnight refrigerator raid. Anyone intelligent enough to follow that rule has Zero chance of shooting a half-naked drunk girl. (Gun grabbers like to pretend that gun owners are like you see in sitcoms on TV, suddenly blasting away in darkened rooms before they get a clear look at who they're shooting. But that's another way TV lies to you.) You know, us human-qualified people, we LOOK before we blast. (If you don't look, you don't have a very good chance of hitting your target, anyway.) As for that poor japanese student: 1. The gun owner was not following the commonsense rules. He SHOULD have been fined, jailed, and whatever else they did to him. It's still a crime committed with a gun. A reasonable case for self-defense would be damned hard to prove in this instance. 2. It's mean to say this, but it's hard to believe that there's anybody who DOESN'T realize that having a gun pointed in your direction is the Universal sign for "GO AWAY FAST." [/QB][/QUOTE]
