There seem to be a variety of reactions to this situation. I know men
who have had to kill or be killed and felt no remorse. On the other
hand, there was a game warden in California who had to have therapy
after killing a mountain lion which had killed a woman. Different folks.

I second that point of view. I expect a lot may depend on what you've
experienced in your life already, i.e. a sheltered silver spoon life vs one
where you've seen that there really are evil people out there.

"Man up" is unlikely, the game warden in question was a woman. However,
I agree that her concern was misplaced.

That was me. it just seems to me that some skel would gut me and leave me for
dead for the $5 in my pocket or rape and murder my 6 yo girl for the hell of
it irrespective of the pain inflicted on the victims or the families and
loved ones of the victims.
One does not agonize over the cancer cells removed from one's body. These
bastards are little more than a cancer on society. I would feel no more
remorse over killing one of these bastards than I would going all out to save
myself or my daughter from a potentially fatal or crippling medical
condition. Or the predator that takes an occasional duck or chicken. Actually
I might feel a little for the predator, he's just doing what he's programmed
to do.
Trying to hurt my little girl is the fastest way I can think of to find out
for yuorself if there is a God.
Lose sleep over it? Not likely.
I have read some of Cooper's work. He laid it out for me. You will be in the
most extreme struggle of your life, your very existence is on the line. When
you prevail you will feel euphoric, not for having killed by for having
survived intact. Don't feel guilty about it, it's part of the survival
mechanism. The reason it screws with people is they can't cope with thier
real humanity.
I'm no tough guy, military wouldn't have me 'cuz of my eyes and I generally
try to avoid confrontations. But my life is noone else's to take.

I remember that one.
The lion left two orphan kits and people raised about $250K to care for them
The woman killed left two orphans (3 and 6 IIRC) as well; the fund
raiser for her orphans raised about $10K.
So WHO is *normal*?
