-> I afraid of pretty much anything that is meant to kill.  If someone
-> aimed, say, an alligator or a Chevy Suburban or something like that at
-> me I would react in much the same way I would if a gun were pointed at
-> me.

That's the first rule you learn in a gun safety class - where to point
the gun.  IE you don't point the gun at ANYTHING if you would be upset
if that thing (or person) were gone forever.  I would be just as offended
if somebody carelessly pointed a chainsaw, an axe, or a meat cleaver at
me, actually.
