Here is a little test that will help you decide..
The answer can be found by posing the following question:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children.
Suddenly, a terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises the knife, and charges at you...
You are carrying a Kimber 1911 cal. 45 ACP, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?
THINK CAREFULLY............
Democrat's Answer:
? Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
? What is a Kimber 1911 cal. 45 ACP?
? Does the man look poor or oppressed?
? Is he really a terrorist? Am I guilty of profiling?
? Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
? Could we run away?
? What does my wife think?
? What about the kids?
? Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?
? I need to debate this with some friends for a few days and try to come to a consensus.
? This is all so confusing!

Daughter: 'Nice grouping, Daddy!'
'Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hollow Points?!
Son: 'Can I shoot the next one?!'
Wife: You are not taking that to the Taxidermist!
Sorry but I failed this test.
"terrorist" has new meaning after I became one as a life long NRA member.
I have't gotten a traffic ticket in plus fifteen years if that counts for anything.
As a terrorist the State can take everything I own then arrest me. I couldn't defend myself because they took everything.
In other words I had to stop and think from the words you wrote:
"Is he really a terrorist? "
Hmm. I’d never suspected Southerners of being such poor shots before this ... :)
Might be a second bang if he’s still twitchen.
But for my money-I don't care where Trump calls home. I am just very glad that he's in the WH and we are lucky enough to get him back for a second term.
The Conservative bench isn't very deep-so I do worry a little about Trump's successor.
People who for decades have been calling themselves Republicans, don't speak for me and I just hope there are more where Trump came from.
I also hope that Trump continues the precedent set by ‘obozo’ of continuing to influence American politics from the sidelines, once he's out of office. He'd be way better at that the “O” is or ever was AND after all, obozo DID set the precedent, as I said.
Oh, c’mon.
Even a ‘Pubbie knows you keep shooting until he stops moving towards you.
Don’t you mean “survive as a Constitutional Republic” not “democracy”?
The demonRATS are trying to turn us into a democracy... majority rule on everything...
Constitutional Republic, state’s rights, all politics are local, electoral college, etc.
Learn the differences, preach them to the high-Heavens!
LOL! Perfect.
12 rounds in a 1911 .45 ACP? Must be the TV version.
At least Trump has shown a better way than W's punching-bag style: like Grant, "he fights." We'll be demanding combativeness as a prerequsite.
No more ‘Mr. Nice Guy’. The GOP gets itself hung up on ‘nicey-nicey’, while Democrats kick s^%t in their faces.
Trump isn’t having any of that!
It’ could be why the MSM continues their en mass race into the sewer, right along with the DNC. If the opposition uses the same tactics, then the only hope for the DNC is if the MSM covers themselves
oops...’Covers themselves with s*&t too’
If he is still moving (or twitching) he is still a threat.
Of course the real answer depends on how far away he is when making the decision to draw your weapon. Even a very skilled shooter requires some time to draw, aim, and fire. A terrorist with a knife and the intent to kill could cover some ground in a few seconds.
This scenario also assumes that no other family members are armed, which might not be the case where I live in Texas. In scenario 4—the Texan—the discussion afterward might be over who made the kill shot.
Claim: A sheriff attributed a suspect’s being shot 68 times to “that’s all the bullets we had.”
TRUE
Plus one “warning shot” fired right afterward
I like that last warning shot
Yeah. If you whack someone with one shot, always make sure two are heard.
