I don't know about anyone else....but if it's between me or them getting the worst end of the situation....I would rather it be them. I would rather NOT depend on anyone else to take care of me in critical situations where TIME DOES COUNT. No one cares about me like I do.

I don't have a gun yet just because I haven't gotten around to the training first.....after my experience with a bow & arrow when I was in Junior High....shot it at the target & it flew over the house.....my aim isn't that good at least NOT with a bow & arrow.....but when it comes to life or death....I'm sure my aim would be a whole lot more right on.
