Sure you can get into some trouble with that - and some have - but that is because they used the logic to attack first and ask questions later. A keen eye, constant vigilance - will keep you alive more than most realize. Its not perfect - but if they are shooting at me - I consider it a "high intensity conflict" regardless of what some politician says.

As an old expression from my former line of work states:
"Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6".

Here endeth the lesson....
