Exactly. Ya stole my post.

Guns were always intended for protection, whether personal or against a tyrannical government or against the wilderness.

Isn't it possible that this guy was just hunting and returned fire against other hunters who shot at him out of anger, saving his life by virtue of the fact that he was in better position?

I remember several years back that even the ACLU weighed in on a case where a poor family bought a gun for protection in the city and they defended them because it was the cheapest way to obtain protection. I wish I remembered the details.

Wisconsin Hunter Shooting Threads and Links - Thread One

Read some of the background before posting such asinine garbage. He shot eight people, some multiple times, most in the back, including a woman and a teenage boy. All but one were unarmed and he was shot first. Vang is a stone cold pathological killer. He has a history of domestic abuse and has had trespassing citations since he started deer hunting in Wisconsin.

Ummmmmmmmm...NO. Only one of the hunting party this guy attacked was armed. Otherwise, the story might have had a different ending.
