Most people who take on the responsibility of firearms ownership have a more stable personality, however this is purely anecdotal from my own personal experience. We train, we drill, it becomes automatic. Same with martial arts.

Regardless if you are a excellent marksman how do you shoot someone with tear gas going off and in the dark? Should they carry their gun, gas mask, and night vision at all times?

"Heading out to see Batman honey."



"OK be safe."

"Always."
