Sadly no. That would come after the fact and not be a first thought.

Self and family defense comes first.

My door is locked when I'm home, not for my protection but for the protection of the fool on the other side that doesn't know I'm sitting quietly in my easy chair, watching a show on ancient history and posting on GLP with a handgun, round chambered, safety off, in my hand or beside me, waiting for him to invite me to empty it into him the second he enters my home.

I forgave the person that crippled me in a car accident by saying to her in the courtroom "Please heal and be well." when I had a chance to be attacking and cruel had I chosen. I am merciful and kind but that doesn't mean I am a pushover or one to be taken advantage of. Another's life ends where my sanctity and security begin if they chose to lose theirs.

It isn't easy, but ending another's ability to hurt others isn't painful or upsetting to one when they realize the future horror they have prevented from happening to others.
