Linda Darnell may have been the best looking woman to ever appear in films.

It was a great movie for entertainment of course but the true story was Hollywooded out of existence.

This film is less respected, but this is terrific dialog:

Phantasm: “Warning shots are bull****

The actor is now a Christian musician.

My warning shot slogan is that if it hits you, you probably will be meeting Jesus real soon.

Warning shots just tell the other thugs where to aim.

Cathy Downs was beautiful in The Dark Corner. She played Clifton Webb’s faithless wife. Can’t blamer her. He’s icky.

Warning shots, Easter bunnies, unicorns, working with lefties, are all BS fables like an honest politician. That’s why having a not politician like Trump in the WH is so swell. Honest lawyers, now there’s another BS story.

In our current state of firearms and use of deadly force laws, there is a lot of truth that if you pull a gun you kill a man.

Specifically, under most deadly force laws the only reason to use deadly force is if you fear for your life/health or that of another. If you pull a firearm (hence you bring deadly force to the confrontation) in most placed the only legitimate reason for using deadly force is you need to kill someone to live. Shoot to live not shoot to kill.

If you pull a firearm on someone who is not about to kill you, that usually is at best considered brandishing to intimidate, reckless endangerment, assault or a variety of crimes.

Hence, if you pull a firearm, make sure you have to do so to shoot to live and then shoot to the center of mass.

...."Warning shots are Bull****".....

Sounds pretty much as my dad taught me.

First rule,...All guns are loaded, even if you just unloaded it.

Second rule,...Never aim at something you don't want to shoot, that includes waving a gun around. Always know where the muzzle is pointing.

Rule 3,...Never shoot anything you don't want to kill, no warning shots, no shooting in the leg, shoot for the chest.

Rule 4,....If you have the right to shoot once, empty the magazine.

School's out.

That’s ridiculous:

Someone is advancing on you and won’t back down. As soon as they see your gun, they will probably turn and run away.

The unfired gun may have saved your life and that of the would be attacker.

So they throw you in jail for not killing him?

Yes, it’s ridiculous. It’s also how the law works in many anti-freedom states (I’m in the People’s Republic of Maryland). Someone is advancing on you and won’t back down. As soon as they see your gun, they should also see Jesus. The fired gun did save your life, and a still-resentful attacker (or political prosecutor) cannot claim otherwise to get revenge.

Yes, that sometimes happens where DA’s don't like people with firearms and want to discourage concealed carry.
