I think people get wrapped around the axle trying to codify these things. It's a gun, it needs to be respected. I get where all of it comes from, but it's all an attempt at simplifying something that is already just so damn simple. I remember in the police academy that they talked about the "laser rule" where you treat the gun like there's a laser coming out of it that will cut or burn anything it touches. I always thought that was idiotic...how 'bout it's a fucking gun and if you point it at stuff, it can kill stuff? Seems easy to me.
