Yeah I remember when he posted that. So sad.

My dad who was a Green Beret during the Vietnam era always told me the big downside to pulling weapon on someone is you have to be prepared to use it. If you put yourself in a situation where you have to use it and you hesitate it will probably be used against you. He's not a big fan of people that walk around in public places brandishing weapons for that reason.

He also told me the first human being you kill will always stay with you no matter how justified.

Ironically my dad has lost interest in weapons and I couldn't get him to kill any herons for me when i wasn't home when I had a federal permit to do so. Said he killed enough in his lifetime and wasn't going to do it anymore. Needless to say he doen't hunt anymore either.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
