Aw crap. I've tried to stay out, I really have. I keep telling myself everyone to their own opinion.

My 'fascination' has to do with not allowing myself to be a victim if at all possible. I believe in 'live and let live'. Don't bother me, and I won't bother you.

I am not aggressive towards people, believe it or not. I am perceived as friendly and helpful by those whom I deal with.

But look. IF I am ever in a situation where my or my families, or even complete strangers lives are threatened, by some idiot who decides people are picking on him and its his turn, or who has a grudge against someone for whatever reason, or who invades my home or car, I will not hesitate to do my best to be the last one of us standing.

What are you going to do.........call the cops? Reason with them?

Or just die peacefully, knowing you didn't contribute to this 'fascination' with guns.
