1. Who said the gun would be drawn to scare someone? You're adding all
sorts of "value" to the posit here.


You said the gun would be in your hand "with your finger on the
trigger (another serious violation of proper gun handling)"



Yeah, in response to seeing some idiot coming at me or mine with a
knife...I don't walkabout with drawn guns.




2. In Maryland, if you have a conceal-carry permit and you are walking
along with your wife and The Freak comes out of an alley and stabs here,
you are not going to go to jail for defending your wife or yourself. You
certainly do need a permit in Maryland to carry.


... and mere mortals can't really get one. Do you have one?

3. I am more than willing to take my chances with the legal system by
blowing away a home invader. There are more holes in the concept of
"retreat" than in a circle of Swiss cheese. "I retreated to the garage
but The Freak followed me in there, brandishing his machete, so I shot
his head clean off." "The Freak chased me around the second floor of our
house, I jumped through a window and he followed...so I shot him six
times..." And so forth.
