Civilian men and guns. Does owning a gun alter the brain?

I know guys that own guns, and guys that don't ( I don't & never have). In general conversation with both (with nothing to do with criminal activity), I have only heard the guys that own the guns say things like " Well I'd shoot the sun-o-biotch". So it gets me to thinking, how many actually would if they could get away with it? For the comedians: yes, I know to shoot someone you have to have a gun.

    Or maybe people with altered brains buy guns. I wonder which comes first. I do not own a gun because I am not afraid of other people, and I have no desire to shoot any son of anyone

    If someone was trying to stab you to death, and you had a gun in your hand, will you shoot?

    You are skirting around a very interesting issue...would the gun owner freeze rather than shoot?

    Stories of GIs freezing in combat and dying because they could not squeeze the trigger are quite commonplace...for all the wars.

    Civilians with guns lack the training that the GIs get. Would they be more inclined to freeze than GIs?

    I think many of them would. Taking another person's life is an anathema for normal people.

    In every society in history - no exceptions, anywhere, ever - free men have the right to be armed, while slaves do not.

    It is not the owners of guns that is the problem as there is a law it is your right to have a gun. If your so stupid to believe you have a right to something and it's wrong, you change things not the people.

    I'm watching this TV show at the moment called Utopia, it's about a secret worldwide organization that is developing biological weapons to wipe out large amounts of certain races of people, it's not exactly clear why, but more stuff for them. The reality is worse than that, although they haven't killed more than a few hundred million, at any particular time, billions over time. They start wars for weapons, drugs, oil profits, they put poison in food, because the same people own the pharma companies, the same people who deal the drugs own shares in the jails, the same people who formed ISIS have shares in the US weapons companies. I mean, it's corrupt as hell, when you think of what would these type of people do, the question is more, what wouldn't they do, and the answer is probably not much. They blow up children against their will with suicide vests in order to create terror, and that's not for religion, they say it is, but it's for heroin profits. That's the thing there, they try to make you think they are just stupid, but they're really, really evil, the people in charge.

    In defense of my own life and lives of those I care about...

    You'd better believe I'd shoot the sun-o-biotch.
