"Hi Joe! I was just downstairs bringing those brownies over and I thought I'd come upstairs and say hell- Oh God you shot me!"

Really? You didn't hear the dog barking furiously and me slamming and locking the door? Why did you pick the lock? Why are you in my house at 3AM with brownies?

What the hell is wrong with you?!?!?! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

...said the parents of thousands of gun deaths...
seriously, this is one of the most common "accidental" shooting situations. The victim is nearly always an unexpected family member. Not that I think you'll have this happen, it's just that this justification sends shivers up my spine.

Well, it is just me and the wife, and the rest of the family is hundreds of miles away... if I had kids, I'm not sure I'd have a gun at all.

That's why I carry a knife for protection.

I recently took up shooting though as a mental discipline, and it is a nice way to unwind. It brings things into focus too. But, I just rent for an hour at the range once every other week.

Blasphemer.
3AM (any time for that matter) is a suitably adequate, if not perfect, time for brownies and they completely legitemise the use of lockpicks for granting human access and promote the sharing of the brownies. Personally, I tend to slam doors frequently when brownie-deprived and I am simply appalled that your dog refused my offer of one. Deeply shocked. Sad. Disappointed. Did I mention sad?

Yeah, shooting as meditation is really relaxing. Like I said earlier, I wanted to buy a gun for that reason but I couldn't justify the cost of purchase. When you add in the home defense angle, I have enough reason to buy. And funny that my knife is illegal where I'm moving, but I can carry the gun damn near everywhere.

You're a Darwin Award waiting to happen. Your last thought in life will most likely be "What? I thought this was a good idea!"

I wouldn't shoot Bambi with my handgun. I'd want to use a rifle with a fairly large-caliber round to ensure a relatively clean kill. :lol:

Winchester .243 and upward. Yep. Good times. :)

It's ok if he has a badge.

Be honest, Mr. Joe. are you "taking the piss"?

No, although earlier I left some in the toilet. I normally don't take urine anywhere... I mean, where would I take it and what would I do with it? Pee in a jar and carry it to the movies with me? Out to dinner?

Nahh, probably more in the lines of "damn glad I saved only one and ate the rest myself." And when I die the rush of endorphins will fight against the wrenching pain of the bullet wound and I'll be happy... and screaming in excruciation pain, and happy, and bawling my eyes out in agony, and happy, and dead. Roughly in that order.

I'm thinking of wearing this one for the occasion.

... and then I get to clean up the mess. It hardly seems fair!

I carry a knife more for utility these days.

I admit that I myself get into to quite a "zen-like" state when firing a riffle. The hand gun doesn't really do that for me though. Something about being in an open range, with a slight breeze, and natural light. You have to become pretty tuned in to changes in the wind, control your breathing, clear your vision, control the focus in your eye, align with your target, and relax your trigger pull....there's something unavoidably meditative about it.
