It doesn't matter that you can benchpress 500 lbs... I can pull 8 lbs with one finger... I win. Plain and simple.

^ No, a police officer expects to shoot in line of duty, to save his/her own life, to save someone else's life, but not "in anger" EVERY TIME, fortunately it doesn't happen that way. The point is that if it was practical officers would carry long guns everywhere instead of the ballisticly deficient handgun.

She was sceaming that someone was coming in the front door. I woke up enough to realize that someone was trying to come in the door. I reached over picked up my pistol and pointed it at the shadow. The first time you point a loaded gun at a live person you start learning alot about yourself.
I was lucky in that about .5sec before I shot the shadow spoke revielling himself as my wifes step brother.
Its harder to shot a person than you think.
