Yes, I have a wife too. It's a fairly common thing. So too are reactions to events of the world as you have suggested is a good idea. But we don't "go for a gun" in civilized society. If there was a wrong of the type you say was reported by Mr. Ingalls, clearly the appropriate response is either police involvement or a lawsuit, not firearms like a gangbanger hoodlum. This is not the Wild West or the Old South where one must resort to vigilantism to defend "honor" nor is it a Hollywood movie where such actions have no real consequences. At a MINIMUM, "going for a gun" in such circumstances is the mark of an irresponsible gun owner. It gives us supporters of 2nd Amendment rights a really bad name. Not to mention what it can do to one's Christian reputation.
You can keep going with your attack on the eldership in Anaheim which "let it come to this" or whatever. I care not. It's probably deserved on some level it seems to me.
What I'm calling attention to is your seeming inability to appreciate that siding up with a would-be murderer puts you in most peculiar company and you are fully comfortable with that because to your judgment someone else was worse. It's not just that the gun-slinger is a symptom of the problem for you. You actually admire the guy. And that's just twisted and bizarre to me for a believer to publicly espouse in this day and age. Both unchristian and unenlightened wasn't something I was expecting from a keyboard here, really...
