Doesn’t matter. It’s the very concept of snipers - the fact that there are people in the world who can puncture you from thousands of yards away - that’s frightening.

Julian Assange got married in a British prison.
Quote:Wearing a dress made by Vivienne Westwood, Stella Moris walked through the crowd of well-wishers to cut her wedding cake. But unlike most new brides, she was alone. Her husband, Julian Assange, remained in Belmarsh prison where the pair had just been married watched by their two children and a handful of guests.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

You are less chilled by a nearsighted chap with a derringer?
Or a guy in a monster truck who wants to see what it' s like to run over somebody?
I fail to see what is terrifying about good marksmanship.
Personally - the idea of somebody blowing my brains out while I am unaware is oddly comforting.
Death is certain. Getting that way without any forewarning seems better than sitting around stressing out about it.
So chill, relax, and quit moving around so much....
