Trigger happy.

People have always found excuses for fighting each other. Every since that day when you were 4 years old and that mean kid next door took your favourite toy and refused to give it back.

Then you have people fighting over religions, among other things. It just seems to be in peoples nature to want to fight. Maybe its the cave-man gene that tells us we have to show that we are stronger. No matter why, people have always been fighting each other, and I have no doubt they will always fight.

The difference from my point of view is this. When I grew up kids and teenagers were fighting just as they are today. But it was different back then. Back then they were fighting with their fists, and whoever got knocked down first lost, as simple as that. and it was an unwritten rule to not keep hitting someone who was already down.

Now these days every other guy, not only teenagers, but kids and adults as well are carrying some sort of weapon. A knife, a gun anything. Why would they do that? You read every day in the paper that someone had killed someone over some really stupid thing. And then claim that they didnt mean to kill him. I got news for you, if you shoot someone in the face, they usually die. If you didnt mean to kill anyone then why did you even carry a gun in the firt place? For protection you say? Yeah, I dont believe that. If everyone was carrying a gun  for protection, people will get trigger happy. They will see threats where there is none and shoot before they find out there was no threat.

That guy looked at you in a way you find threatening? Bam, shoot him!

This guy have an opinion that differs from yours? Bam shoot him!

That guy took the parking space you had your eyes on? Bam shoot him!

I dont believe in carrying guns for protection, because even if thats all you want it for. You will never know when you find yourself in a situation where you get so provoked that you will use it, even if its not needed for your own safety.

Besides, is it worth it to spend the rest of your life in prison because you reacted too fast and killed someone?

Ofcourse, where I live the authorities have greatly underestimated how long we live. Because anyone who gets a life sentence ususally gets out from prison in about 10 years or so. What are they thinking about?

You bastard! you killed someone, you'll pay for this by sitting in prison for the rest of your life. We estimate that you will live for 10 years, so unless you die within these 10 years we're just gonna set you free again. But by then I really hope you have learned your lesson!

Whatever happen with an eye for an eye? Killed someone? Then you deserve to get killed in the same way.

Could I ever kill someone? Ofcourse I could, if my life or the life of someone i love was in danger I sure could kill someone. Am I carrying around a gun every day just incase anything like that should happen? No I'm not, why would I? That sounds almost like you're hoping for someone to attack you so you'll get an excuse to shoot them. If I find myself in a situation where I need to kill someone to either protect myself or someone I love, I can assure you I dont need a gun.

I'll kill that bastard with my cellphone if needed. I'll smash that cellphone so hard in his face that he wont know what hit him. Guns are for pussies.
