He walked 3 ks back to the car without shoes. He noted he was also silent. I told him when I became a partisan, I would make him my lead scout. I'm saying this because we all want to protect. I guess as a pacifist ex soldier there's a fair degree of conflict within the being named 'Carl'...
That's me as well Carl, but the protector (of familly and self) in me beats down the pacifist everytime.

I used to go all day in bare feet as a young bloke. Growing up in the bush is a different life though. I couldn't go 100metres now, let alone 3Kms.

Hmmm. It reads like it's in a joling tone, but methinks there might be a serious side to this one James. However if you stick all the people who want guns in a room, they won't shoot it out, they'll sit around all day and all night and talk guns, make life long friends, form shooters associations and political parties, and have all the policies in place for when they finally get a chance to right the vermin, feral bunny(s) (and their) huggers wrongs in the country, and set it on the path to true freedom and true conservation of native flora and fauna... <---See! A smiley so you know I'm only half serious.
