I can’t say this surprises me. I’ve seen this mentality first hand in my cousin. I can’t even get him to touch a weapon. He almost recoils at the sight of one of those evil black rifles. I’m about sure he’d rather die than to use one to defend himself, if it came down to it.
Just shockingly sad, what our modern culture has done to what would otherwise be good men.
However, as strong as the instinct to live is, there are circumstances where the mind overrides it.
Of course, she's never been in a situation to choose, so who really knows until that happens.
