That's what I thought too. Essentially what I was told was, "You haven't been around many people who've been shot before, have you?" Take it or leave it, it won't hurt my feelings--after all, it's second-hand knowledge from friends I trust to me, but to you it's third-hand knowledge from someone you don't know.

Hmmm, Gun vs. Katana...

Can I vote for both?
