Ummm....
I think my first post made things pretty clear.
I would shoot the fucker deader than dirt as soon as I discovered him in
my place. He has no business being there. I don't care if he has a drug
problem and wants my VCR to get a fix. The second he crossed over my
threshold, he committed suicide.
Please understand, I am a peace loving, law abiding citizen. Never
broke the law above a parking ticket. I go to work, and to college and
raise my High School, teenage daughter by myself. I don't bother anyone.
BUT... If someone chooses to fuck with me, they are *ended*.
Chances are that they are probation for something horrible, on early
release because our jails are over crowded by pot smokers (I don't
smoke, BTW).
I target practice three hours a fortnight, just to keep accurate. I am
not obsessed, just don't want to be fucked with. There are to many
vicious animals on this planet. If one of them decides that I am easy
prey, he will never hurt anyone again.
I hope you all understand!! :D!
