| 4Sarge, I think that people just have to understand that you are coming from a position where a gun was just another tool on your duty belt. Being female, a long time shooter and former LEO I was not offended but can understand why some others might have taken exception to how you stated your case. For me, growing up with 3 brothers and a 1 sister that was 10 years younger, I have always been very "masculine" in my thinking and in controlling my emotions. That has made a world of difference in how I view self defense. We all need to glean the real meaning out of each others posts because you never know where you might find a pearl. Don't stop posting and for you other women don't stop questioning him.
One thing I strongly agree with is not carrying unless you have made the decision that you could under the necessary circumstances take another life.
