You're probably thinking. "I've seen this guy shoot zombies. He misses more than he hits, I can't imagine what he would do with a real gun!"

 

haha right!?

Are your reactions fast enough to pull your trigger the moment you see his finger twitch?

And would that actually prevent his muscles from continuing to contract if his brain has already sent that signal?

Or would you just end up with two dead people, and maybe some cohorts of the robber getting away and the police not being able to question them on who they might have been.

Oh, and possibly having a bounty on your own head for taking out one of their friends.

No, can't say that I can predict that everything would be OK in that situation. I would only hope to never be in it!

 

And no, nobody shoots my friend.

Here's a question. If one of you fine Brits came to America are you allowed to shoot a gun? Would you ever want to shoot a gun?

 

I would imagine you are allowed right? Your military has guns.

No, I only went to like two or three lessons. Get all dizzy when I roll about too much. :(

My Dad's could... well, I think he did the instructor's course... he is a black belt though. :D

If it were legal to carry weapons in public here, I think I'd carry a glaive. I've been in love with that weapon since playing Mount & Blade. It's a knife on a long stick. Genius.

Either that or I'd ride a tiger. Maybe both. It'd be like living in my very own Korean MMO.

I can fly planes. Well not legally. Only took 3 lessons and then ran out of time to get my license.

Well at least he went to some lessons.

How many have you been to?

Not even trying is worse than quitting. :@

I don't shoot in any kind of league where it's scored. Sometimes we shoot at targets, sometimes I'll take beer cans or bottles out to the farm and shoot and have a good time.

We can own and shoot weapons here, you just need a license. Can't take them out in public and have to keep them very securely locked up. And we're not (reasonably, I think) allowed assault weapons.

I've used shotguns a fair bit growing up in the countryside. And I've fired pistols and rifles. Guns are quite fun to fire, I certainly understand the attraction.

But yeah, if we go to the US we're allowed to fire guns in a range or whatever.

I believe in Switzerland it's illegal to not own a gun. (Something like: they all do military service and they get to take the assault rifle home after. They're legally obliged to keep it in working order and that and can, I think, take it out and about with them if they want. Might be a bit wrong but it's roughly there. Hwre we go: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_Switzerland )

Some people also eat soft shell crabs. Hopefully they haven't eaten yet else they would be full of shit.

 

I have eaten soft shell crab sandwiches and they have not tasted like shit; on the other hand I have never eaten shit so am not sure what it would taste like. Crab shit might have a different flavor than say, cod shit.

 

Shrimp shit might often be eaten with gusto and perhaps cocktail sauce, since many people are not aware that the "vein" present in shrimp is really only a shit tube. But I digress.


    Did you ever see such a messed up situation in your whole life, son?

Only three?

And then you could have applied for a license!? O.o

That's scary!


I want to learn to fly, but I think (especially with current fuel nonsense) that it's stupidly expensive over here. :(

huh, I didn't think I knew that, but then I remembered hearing something on the radio about a fellow over there getting in trouble for protecting himself when someone broke into his house.

 

OK, so that's cool, you're allowed to shoot and stuff. Everyone should at least shoot once and then decide if they like guns or not.
