The answer can be found by your response to the
following situation:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife
and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a
huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams
obscenities,praises Allah, Praises the knife, and charges at you.
You are carrying a Colt .45 automatic 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?
This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with
some friends for few a days and try to come to a consensus.
