Well Bruce, I'll let you in on the fact that I worked for the Fulton County
Sheriff's department for 4 years, and was well trained on how to use my
firearm. Also I was very aware of what intruders can do when they break into
a person's home, I've seen the results in person. So believe me when I say

Just blasting away is on dangerous legal grounds is what I was talking

there are enough dead innocent people out there to prove my point.

My grandfather, with 20 years on the LAPD and about 20 more as a Special
Investigator for the State of California was my source, by the way.
