Cotton Picker,

Again, I have no idea what you’re trying to say.

Did you or did you not post this:

Chances are good that not too many here have experienced any of the above... An hopefully never will...
That is where I dug up the reference to YOUR prerequisites, if you bother to read any of my posts I wrote no such thing. I simply quoted you and wrote that many people have managed to defend themselves with firearms without the benefit of experiencing the above.

Having had a home invasion.

I guess there's just a first time for everything.

Also if you can find any “trigger happy rhetoric” in any of my posts please go ahead and quote it for me.

Nowhere in any of my posts have I even alluded to any type of rules of engagement, again if you can find any examples please quote them.

I believe I've pretty much managed to stick to the issue of using birdshot for SD, and done my best to substantiate my opinions using articles, test reports, and ballistic data.

I think enough has been said about this topic.

Does someone want to start a new thread on the best caliber for defensive pistols?
