I agree. Anyone who is cavalier about shooting people has a serious problem.
If you are a Christian and have that mindset, then your theological math needs serious work. https://twitter.com/KevinDr_ver/status/1385349918924083202">https://twitter.com/KevinDr_v...
While I have never shot anyone, I HAVE drawn a firearm a couple times, one of those times was on a COP.
(I was in my home, and I thought it was a break-in at 11PM. The fact that I held fire is why I am here to tell the story.)

If you are a Christian with any regard for human life, just the act of DRAWING a deadly weapon is going to give you some pause.
The prospect of killing someone--even someone who warrants it--is NOT something that one should relish or take lightly in any way.

I have carried a firearm for most of the last 18 years. I have wrestled with the mental and theological implications of what it would mean to use that firearm on someone else.
Yes, I could do it. I will not give a treatise on that in this thread; I have done so before.
But I must concede: I& #39;d be in therapy for a long time if it came to that. No matter how clear-cut the scenario is.

As I often say: JUSTIFIABLE HOMICIDE IS STILL HOMICIDE. There is ALWAYS a price to pay.
Old Testament Law actually illustrates this principle. Don& #39;t believe me? Look it up.
