Yeah, when the FBI raided the Branch Davidians in Waco, I think it was Michael Savage that said if the FBI, or any law enforcement comes after you to shoot them in the hip, because it's almost always unprotected and incapacitating. He caught holy hell for that.
Why not apply the same logic to the bad guys too?
Life is like riding a motorcycle. Balance is key, unless you’re at a stoplight and forget to put your feet down. Then, balance is just embarrassing.
