Nobody objects to killing in self-defense.

there are plenty of our legislators and congressmembers who DO object to
the
use of deadly force in self defense. Strange, but true. Senator
Feinstein
has stated something to the effect of "I understand why some people want
guns for hunting, but self defense is not something I am comfortable
with".

Is that why she has an armed bodyguard?

Does she? Hmmm, well I bet a bodyguard has more training the everyday yokel
walking around the street.


We also hear quite frequent howls when a police officer shoots someone in
self defense.

With the inevitable "Yes, he had a long criminal record ,but he was just
starting to think about considering turning his life around" wailing,
yes.
