The scariest things I have read in this thread is the message that some people :
1) feel the need to kill in self defense [not wound]
2) have the feeling that if it might be legal to kill someone that its OK


Concerning, "feel the need to kill in self defense [not wound]".

Because of legal ramifications you can't say, "I was shooting to wound him. Oops, I'm sorry he died."
So I think legal concerns force us to adopt the mindset, "I was shooting to stop the threat." with death or life being incidental.


As for, "have the feeling that if it might be legal to kill someone that its OK"
I hope I haven't come off like that. I seldom carry. I've never pulled a weapon on anyone and never shot at anyone. I hope I never need to, but if it happens I want to win and live.
