Well good for you. I didn't want to get into a pissing contest when I made my first post in the thread. I was supporting the OP. You break into a home in our culture and you're likely to get shot. I simply pointed out that even someone such as myself (I abhor violence) would defend my home. I personally would attempt to avoid taking a life. It is because of my experience both that I would wish to avoid taking a life and that I would have the nerves to remember to, even if I were in mortal danger.

Ten foot away with a AR-15, standing position until I fell off loft onto ground floor. Pic taken from ground floor. Impressive, huh?

I my country they do some sick shit to people when they home invade, torture, rape, murder and they don't steal anything. South Africans are at the stage of shoot first ask questions later, dangerous outlook but that's how it's become here.
In SA we have a major race problem, the goverment keeps trying to seperate the races by doing things like this; A white guy is sleeping in his bed, a noise wakes him up, he sees a black guy trying to climb though his window with a firearm in his hand, the white guy shoots the black guy dead, the black guy falls out of the window and lands in the garden, it becomes a racist murder and the dude is still in prison to this day, camera's around his house confirm the white dudes story, but because a white guy killed a black guy, it was a racist killing and he must suffer. Sad country SA has become.

Clover leaf? Nice cock and balls.... Intentional?
Good one! You hit the narrow side of the barn.
Standing position is called 'Offhand' in marksman terminology, Then you have kneeling, seated and prone. Prone is laying on your belly and is the most stable position. Most people with a modicum of skill could hit people sized objects at 500 meters with an AR-15 using iron sights, unsupported, and hit them 95+ out of a 100 tries in the prone position. It's that good.
Hahaha!! I never even noticed until now!!
Cloverleaf is just shooter parlance for any target where all the holes made by the bullet are all touching. when you just shoot 3 shots ( because it's easier to get 3 to all touch than 5) it tends to look like a clover, but I couldn't find any of those because I tend to only shoot 5.
It wasn't intentional, I'm not THAT good. I'm no Martin Riggs.

so why in the fuck ? would you only shoot to wound?? This is absolutely absurd and how even more innocents could get hurt. not to mention open yourself up to a lawsuit. If you are gonna pull a weapon, you better damn well be willing to go the distance.
and before you ask...no i've never shot someone. Hope I never have to either, but I can say with absolute certainty I wouldn't go for a leg shot... wtf???

I don't reckon you have been in a situation like that, it's hard to think straight, you first emotion is to protect yourself. I reckon they only way to make that moral decision is if you used to people shooting at you, when you lose the emotional attachment. Me personally, I don't think I could make that decision and if you hesitate well then you screwed in most cases.

I would not expect most people to have the nerves I have. I made my living invading homes.

Sounds like bullshit. Video evidence and a perpetrator with a firearm. I'm calling bullshit.

I didn't say that. You just completely turned what I said into something else. I said nothing like that. If you must know how to avoid killing a person who is armed, you take fucking cover and tell them to surrender. There are many ways to do it but it always requires balls and nerves. It's also risky. The alternative is to kill.

no, you said this.
which directly contradicts with what you are saying now
you said you would shoot, but not kill.....how am I misinterpreting this?
