I scared the bejeezus out of a lady today, LOL she was turning left in town, and she just pulls across the other lane (mine) and waits for her lane to clear while chatting away on her cell phone...looking away from me so i give the brakes a tap, just to make sure they are working and then I roll up on her drivers door at the speed limit, and brake right at the last minute while nailing the horn... She turned my direction just before i hit the brakes and you could just see the terror on her face as she screamed into the phone (her window was up and I could hear it inside my helmet) I laughed so hard... I bet she won't be doing that again for a couple days.1 point

I can do internet schooling.... Lesson 1. Park the Shadow on a flat part of the yard. Now push it over so it falls on it's side. Pick it back up and place it on the kick stand and do it again. Let me know when this is mastered for lesson 2.1 point

I kind of knew this was gonna happen. I know how it 'sounds' in text format, I just don't have any way to make it sound better. My problem isn't necessarily with people having the right to carry a firearm, it's that the people who have the right don't necessarily have the training. They're taught the legal aspects of it, which is important, but they're not taught things of a different type of importance. I'm NOT against civilians having guns (it's been proven time and time again to be more of an asset than a problem) I just WISH there was solid training for those who qualify to carry them that goes beyond operation, safety, and when you're allowed to shoot people (legislative). I served on a team where one of the biggest eye openers for me was in the training when they said 'it's like paintball, but with consequences' 15 minutes into the training you've killed four civilians, a hostage, out right murdered two people who were compliant in their own way, and escalated a drunk from a point of passive-non-compliance to were deadly force was a need to protect your life --- In all cases we were wrong and we were serving on teams of six. Our instructors were a F.B.I. trainer, two U.S. Marshal's, and a former Marine recon sniper, all impressive histories, all with impressive scenarios and sea-stories of what-if scenario's. MY favorite quote from it all is: "When it goes down and you've been put into a position of you or them has to die, get out of the situation, don't turn your back, if they lock you into a position where you absolutely can not get away from them and de-escalate ... It's time to get to work, your family is waiting for you at home." --- Not for the drastic twist at the end but I always thought it exemplified the right mind-set you need to be in. The most important thing I learned through all of it is all you can do is train and train and train and be prepared to use it and hope you don't have to, because when it comes down to it, who is going to push the furthest, and if you're prepared to go the whole distance, you had better be justified (as was mentioned). I had to apply more of the training than I ever cared for, but without the training, I'd be dead many times over, or worse, other people would have been. But the ideal scenario will never present itself and (some) people think they're going to hear a noise in their house late at night, it'll wake them from their slumber and they'll be in a mindset to 'protect' their family with the loaded gun they keep next to their bed at night. Their going to sneak down stairs and be in a mindset where they can make the right choices given their scenario. It's just not realistic to think that a situation will present itself and you're going to have all this time to think, analyze, decide if you need to draw or not to shoot and/or kill someone. I literally feel heart-ache for anyone who has HAD to use their firearm to defend themselves or others because that's absolutely not a easy decision to make in this world, and I respect everyone who has civilian or military, just wish you all had more training (civilian and military). Sorry these posts are so long haha, this is a hard thing for me to communicate over the internetz.1 point
