    Right. What's your point? The card says to say "SOMEONE call 911"....and you just said "ideally I would have someone else call them." And also "first I need to speak with my attorney". Since you can't seem to get the facts straight and, and are actually saying the complete opposite of what is on the card and are wasting everyone's time, I think we need to end this conversation.

    The card is still wrong in my opinion.

    Just double checked, you are wrong also it does not say for you to say "someone call 911.
    Some people just plain suck.
    If you're gonna be dumb ya gotta be tough.

    The card says to say "SOMEONE call 911"....
    You should re-read the card and see if you can find "SOMEONE call 911" anywhere on it. Here it is, for easy reference:

    Besides which, why would I be calling 911 if someone else shot some other person in self defense anyway?

    I would never want to hurt anyone. But there may be instances where I have to.
    You won't know until that time comes.
    I believe if a threat of death or the person is capable of grave bodily injury to myself or someone whom is unable to defend themselves then its time to take action.
    But if you have been training, you will do what needs to be done.

    What I am trying to say is I believe that some percentage of persons could not truly use a firearm even in self defense. Not sure of the percentage but there is a percentage.
