Absolutely. I'm a very compassionate individual but I have had to use deadly force - ask any military medic whose been in combat, most of us would much rather save lives but there are times when shooting another human being is the only way to save the lives of others.

Same way for police they go between risking their life in hopes of saving alife and somrtime that means takeing a life. I hope to never again have to make the desicion to hurt or take another's life, but don't mistake my mild manner and kindness as weakness.
