Jeff CooperWe are somewhat amused by the hysteria manifest in the press at the suggestion by Gordon Liddy that if one is menaced by bad guys (particularly the ninja) one is wise to shoot for the head.

If you decide to shoot you have made the big decision. Where you place your shot is merely a technical matter.
