Why discount the idea if it is good? I have no problem with guns being
designed to kill. Whether it be animal or person. I am not a vegetarian.
I know my place in the food chain. I am a predator. I eat meat. I hunt
and kill animals and eat them. I also have a liking for living myself. If
someone was threatening it I would have little compulsion to stop them in
whatever way I thought necessary. If it required the killing of them, I
would do it. I admit to my selfishness of me thinking my live has more
worth than the life of the person trying to take mine. I am proficient
with firearms. They are good TOOLS. I would use one to protect myself,
just as I would anything else I may have at the time. My views are simple:
Me living = good. Me eating = good. Me dieing = bad.
