Rules of Gunfighting

This also applies to knife fights, fist fights, road rage, and even
arguments that involve loud voices or foul language. If you think of
life as fundamentally confrontational, then YOUR life WILL be; and you
will NOT enjoy what happens when you meet someone else just like you.

I agree with yer premise but not the whole argument.

I taught Uechiryu karate for 4 years. In ALL of those years and years since
we trained for the unexpected. In most cases the same scenario, multiple
times. Things that most people would not even consider but do indeed happen
to somebody everyday.
Your post reminded me of that training. Just by talking about it is
training.
It's not confrontationtional to think about confrontations. It may be a bit
neurotic but that doesnt necessarily make it a bad thing.

Our military and police train and think of the unexpected everday. That
doesnt make them neurotic. it makes them better at their jobs.

People make the mistake of thinking that guns inherantly are bad things in
themselves. They never mention the people that pull the trigger as being the
bad, neurotic things that they are.

If I dropped a post about how to defend yerself with yer own body would that
be considered as bad as Gunner's post? What if mine was as humorous as his?

Granted, at 50 yards the human body is not so efficient as a gun but at
close range it can be more lethal.

You never have to worry about reloading, and in most cases you dont need a
permit.
In all my life I have seen more people beat to **** than shot by a gun.
