So there's nobody that agrees with me in going back in to end the threat besides 0317? Where are my sheepdogs at?!

With the basis of the current laws, I'm not willing to risk my life, my income and my family for co-workers.Originally Posted by OscarMike1127
When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
It's people like you that give me reservations about risking my life for another. While it may not be, true I like to think I'm not doing anything that anyone else would not have done.

We have a family friend who has been in jail for 13 months because he tried to help a woman who was being beaten to death by her husband.
His wife and kids are living of donations.
My job is to protect my wife and kids. I can't do that if I'm detained.

You can't do that if your whole decision making process is based on what the repercussions may be rather than assessing the situation in real time and moving to produce a satisfactory result.
I don't think I could protect my family or myself at a satisfactory level with that kind of hesitation built in to my OODA loop

One more of them is right here.
. . . . I'd like to say something witty and perhaps even profound here.
But the truth of the matter is simply; if you convince me that you are about to, or are in the process of start to kill innocents, I will be your worst fucking nightmare come to life. Bottom line.
I'd rather be lucky than good, but I'd rather KNOW I'm good than HOPE to get lucky.
