Democrat, Republican, or Redneck? [modified]

You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, an [INSERT READILY RECOGNIZABLE BAD GUY OF YOUR CHOICE] with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises [INSERT THE DEITY OF YOUR CHOICE], praises the knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a M1911A1 .45 semi-automatic pistol and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do? Democrat's Answer: Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the man look poor, or oppressed? 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? Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand? What does the law say about this situation? What do the European courts say about this situation? Does the Colt have appropriate safety built into it? Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children? Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me? Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me? If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me? Should I call 9-1-1? Why is this street so deserted? We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior. This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for few a days and try to come to a consensus. ................................ Republican's Answer: BANG! ................................ Redneck's Answer: BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! (sounds of reloading) (CLACK! slide released) BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! (sounds of reloading) (CLACK! slide released) Daughter: "Nice grouping, Daddy!" Son: "Can I shoot the next one?" Wife: You ain't taking that to the taxidermist! EDIT ================== So... Are we to interpret the 1 votes as support for islamic terrorists? EDIT ================== Let's try an experiment...

You can never have too much ammo - unless you're swimming, or on fire. - <Baited question... Question; would you do the same if it was some white kid high on meth from Tenn? Gun vs gun, the better shot wins.. Gun vs knife, he better be quicker then me as I don't feel like wasting bullets unless total needed ( a knife can be disarmed, and I'd prefer to be with my wife see my kids grow up instead of time in Jail). And just in case; I'm more Centrialist. this is just my opinion. :) nice topic though.

Baited question... Question; would you do the same if it was some white kid high on meth from Tenn? Gun vs gun, the better shot wins.. Gun vs knife, he better be quicker then me as I don't feel like wasting bullets unless total needed ( a knife can be disarmed, and I'd prefer to be with my wife see my kids grow up instead of time in Jail).

When it comes to being attacked (in any fashion), I don't believe in fighting fair, nor do I concern myself with the welfare of my attacker. If I have a gun, my attacker will most definitely be shot.
