[QUOTE]Originally posted by JeffKardde: [QB] Omega, I think you what question we want an answer to. Stop stalling. Er, I for one would also like to invite anyone who carries or wants to carry a handgun to answer the question as well. Ah, well, I'll type it here. You might also want to refer to my post from 17 December for some more info on what Daryus is talking about ... [i]A question for Omega. Ever been in a critical situation? You know, where you are really in danger? Felt the blood run through you, knees turn weak, focus go off, senses reach out, doubt & fear flood you? Obviously not. So, until you have been there, stop spouting all this crap about 'yeeha, I'd just go down there and bust all their asses!'. When you are in a life threatening situation, no matter what training you have had, or what weapons you carry, you'll realize how immaterial all this squablling and posturing is. You have a split second to make a decision that could end a life, one way or the other. Now, any kind of martial training helps keep you focused, and some experience with weapons is invaluable, but you, I would guess lack any experience with high pressure situations and I'd bet a months wages that your stomach would turn to jelly and you'd want mamma to come cover ytou up the first time you're really shite scared of being killed. Theres' nothing shameful in that, but just make sure you can seperate your realistic reactions from your fantasies about being the all conquiering hero who takes out the baddie. These situations are fluid, and never what you expect. Your reactions are always half as good as they should have been, upon reflection. Keep that in mind.[/i] And I've got a question to add. Okay, ya'll most vocal that if someone breaks into your house and rips you off, he's going to kill you, rape and kill your wife, and sodomize your children before he kills them too, 'cuz lordy, he can't leave any witnesses around! Aren't you only witnesses if you (I dunno) witness the thing? Why is he going to go out of his way to kill you if all he wants is the big 30" TV in your living room? The cops would put more effort into finding someone who killed a bunch of people then just someone who stole your (replaceable) Television -- yes? I mean, I'm just asking here. Maybe you didn't know that witnesses had to see the thing going on, or that most criminals wouldn't want to kill someone because that would means the cops would be after them more than before? Just curious. [/QB][/QUOTE]
