    I honestly do not remember writing that. The post seems vaguely familiar, and I do remember writing something like it . . . . but I do not remember writing "pew pew pew."

    Hmm. :thinking:

    Maybe at the time of your writing, you were thinking of either walking the dog or baby diapers

    I don't know where my line is but I sincerely hope it's an inch closer than necessary. I've had to mentally ready myself to kill to protect someone else several times: weapons at low ready while calculating backdrop and ballistic penetration, Mexican standoffs with rednecks, hand on holstered concealed hip carry pistol exposed in public in daylight while screaming commands to backup at a junkie trying to wrestle with me where I could not retreat with my wife, hiding in the dark with a knife while several gang members tried to break into the home where my wife was sleeping, planning precisely how to kill the second kid (they were juveniles) climbing through the window to jam up the third while I turned on the first in the darkness and his confusion. But I've never even needed to maim someone in self-defense or professionally, which is fairly impressive for a lowly ninja with my violence exposure. I strongly dislike using even pain compliance on people, unless they're frat boys. For some reason I kind of enjoy hurting frat boys. I'm like a bro slayer.

    I have only been in a situation where I contemplated it once. My stepfather was drunk and beating up the whole family. He broke my mother's arm and I picked up a pair of scissors. Fourtunetly my mother stopped me, but I was convinced that he was going to kill one of us. What happened next was my friends arrived and my mother was kind of the "mom" of the neighborhood. We dragged him to the door and threw him off the porch and never saw him again.

    The others jammed. That's often a problem with churches carrying greater than 15 rows. Especially if one gets grease in the chamber.

    Just ask my dog

    "Hallowed", I would think.

    We got home this evening to find that Lazy Sod, our dog, had gotten into the wife's bbq ribs and devoured them.

    No doubt the house will be filled with the sounds of a 50 cal after he drifts off...:rolleyes:

    That would be a Cathedral of pews

    It was no cathedral, believe me.

    Not talking about quiet, I'm talking about the many pews

    This is hilarious, did you read my post in "Thought of the Day" or did you just come out with this?

    Exactly what I thought.

    The timing was too perfect!

    No, I haven't read it, mine came to my mind since my whisky IS actually running out - highland bird, cheap, but I would claim that it is pretty good for its price :p

    You will have all the reason to kill if you are on that bus.

    If you don't make it to the post in that thread, I commented about somebody misinterpreting the Whiskey Rebellion in the United States in 1791-1794. The federal government put a new tax on whiskey producers, and they rebelled against it. :p
