..."Well, what do you think happened, ss?"<br /><br /> No idea Mike. I tend to default to the finger on the trigger syndrome. When people mess up, they often try to somehow distance themselves from the event. You've mentioned it before in what you call the passive voice. <br /> In situations such as this, irregardless of what the guy said, he received immediate negative feedback in the form of a bullet in the ankle. He gets a hefty fine also in the form of medical bills. And he'll get reminders for years when people bring up the event at family holidays and such.<br /><br />ssgmarkcrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480230040370709682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-7872630607823722572014-11-07T14:19:13.740+01:002014-11-07T14:19:13.740+01:00"What the hell are you blabbering about.

Where do you suppose they got the information? The injured guy.<br /> Think they sent the crime lab guys out there? Not likely. So, as I said, you seem quite comfortable in taking the gun owner's word as the truth in these situations. But not when a gun owner is defending themselves. <br /> ssgmarkcrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480230040370709682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-79140723804803758342014-11-07T14:05:13.832+01:002014-11-07T14:05:13.832+01:00Why?
