    Did it ever occur to you, that when a comment doesn't seem to apply to you, maybe it wasn't meant for you?
    Well, she said "y'all"....not "some of y'all".


    ETA correction of pronoun.

    Actually I wasn't the one who made the comment. But please, feel free to think the world revolves around you. Everyone is clearly talking only to you.

    Whoa. You okay? Not sure why my commenting to someone who included me by saying "y'all" in her post says I think the world revolves around me. I was explaining the difference between being flippant about the loss of human life and saying we'd shoot at an intruder.
  • for the record i dont want to kill anyone. i want to stop them. however if they just happen to die well thats a possible side effect from getting shot.

    How do you know she was talking to you? Does the world revolve around you, too? :wink:

    Ditto! I want them to heal in jail. Hopefully with a limp.

    Sadly though, you almost "have" to kill them because if you shoot them and maim them, they'll come right back and sue you and there have been plenty of cases where the burglar has won for damages.

    Note: Not advocating killing intruders, just stating a fact.

    It's amazing how flippant ya'll can be about taking someone's life.

    Are you for real? Well maybe the criminal should've thought twice about breaking and entering! I'm glad he's dead! One less scumbag off the earth!

    That poster is always caustic. I have not figure out why nor do I wish to invest the effort in figuring it out. There's an ignore button for a reason. :yawn:

    I will chime in here. I shoot to kill. Aim center mass and squeeze till them stop moving. Dead men don't get up and attack. Dead men also don't sue.
