If you say you're shooting to kill, you could be charged with that as your intent.

Sick I know. <BR/><BR/>But having been stalked, attacked and almost raped (my limited martial arts training saved me that time) I would aim to shoot for a kill, not an injury. <BR/><BR/>Why? As they taught me in martial arts, if I'm defending myself it means the person is on top of me. Standing at 5ft tall, I have no room for error and need to swiftly inflict maximum bodily injury in order to escape/defend myself. <BR/><BR/>There is nothing worse than a slightly injured, adrenaline fueled guy that is doubly hell bent on hurting you. That's from personal experience. <BR/><BR/>You have no idea how I wish I could carry a gun. <BR/><BR/>michele<BR/>http://lettersfromnyc.mu.nuAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21084151.post-40398984993099031812007-03-19T21:03:00.000-04:002007-03-19T21:03:00.000-04:00B.C. - ha... if someone had been standing there wi...B.C. - ha... if someone had been standing there with some aloe, well... let's just say, no argument.<BR/><BR/>I got your e-mail... thanks for the info.

I think too many women are intimidated by the thought of a .45 rather than the reality of it.<BR/><BR/>Daisycat's .380 kicks almost as much as my .45. The reason has to do with the relative mass of her gun (very lightweight) compared to mine. The extra mass is a shock absorber. The tradeoff is, of course, the superior concealability of her gun.Desert Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13656526816699347744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21084151.post-30658703850731341232007-03-18T22:46:00.000-04:002007-03-18T22:46:00.000-04:00I should have gotten you in touch with my mother. ...I should have gotten you in touch with my mother.
