John, believe it or not, some people need it.
And it ain't like we're talkin' about killin' the local minister.
The older I get, the less I'm inclined to pass judgment. Or exact judgment.
Truth of to matter is, there is no right and wrong. Unless you're a homo sapien. We're the only ones who are so cock sure of ourselves to pass judgment.
My dog doesn't draw a moral lesson from what it does. Ever see a clip of a bunch of wolves eating the guts out of a deer while it's still alive?
And when it gets right down to it, nothing is more dangerous than a homo sapien. We're smarter, better armed, and we can shed our facade of "moral superiority" quicker than my little dog can shed it's winter coat.
Not right, or wrong...'tis the nature of the beast. And far be it for me to dictate to my fellow man as to the path he shall follow.
I'll stick with a GP100 and a Chief's Special in my nightstand for the time being. If that don't cut it, I'll bring in the H&K 91.
After that, I reckon they'll be eating my guts while I'm still alive.

Not right, or wrong. Simply the was things are, and always have been.
