Not at all, I'm always "now" out with a pistol, I rarely shoot anything

The reason for that is this http://ezknot.com/raccoon.html

It's a funny story now, but it was not when it happened

Wow. Reminds me of the time we had a mangy-looking skunk in the
neighborhood with a definite problem! It was out in broad daylight in my
front yard chewing on the grass. Maypies were flying down pecking at it.
The kids in the neighborhood (residential street in city limits) were about
to get out of school. My neighbor called all "the authorities" and got no
where. So he took matters into his own hands. Since he would be fined
heavily for discharging a firearm, he dropped a big rock on its head.

No one could open their windows that evening, but our kids were safe.

Today the authorities wouldn't pull that off for long, as one of the local
news stations now does a troubleshooting section called "What makes you
mad?" Where local citizens can call and complain. This show has cleared and
gotten the slow moving bureaucracy stepping up. ~ jan
