Ok you say they should be stopped but not killed, I have a proposition for you, why don't you come down here look at a 15 year old with a .38 and say stop shooting while your empty handed, just keep in mind that the 15 year old has no respect for you or anybody else, not even himself, and is trying to kill something just cause he can.
Personally I'll be returning fire, if I'm a better aim than he is then its his loss.
and if its either me or him, like the old saying goes, better him, than me.
and as for little darlings, granted he didn't say it, but he is sure as hell insinuateing that I'm the bad guy fro defending my life and property, while the little ganster is a inocent just cause he's under 18. Heres a news flash, a 5 year old can kill you, gonna not shoot at him when he starts bounceing bullets off your head?
