I mean... if you're raised as a decent human being, killing somebody is against every moral thing you've ever been taught. And so, generally, in combat it's 'krauts,' the 'gooks,' the 'yanks' - whatever you want to do to try and make it so that it's not a human being.
One thing I always say when I discuss guns with people - if a gun is not present, it's generally more difficult to do irreparable harm.

It is generally much more shameful to lose a good reputation than never to have acquired it.
And generally the shows I'm in fail really big.
Before a game, I avoid having a heavy meal so that I don't feel sleepy at the board. You eat to be healthy, and that generally takes care of everything. Also, you can't be too finicky, since at tournaments you tend to eat at restaurants here and there. But, as long as you're eating sensibly, it's all good.
Those who believe that they are exclusively in the right are generally those who achieve something.
If you go out on the Appalachian Trail, you have to bring so much more equipment - a tent, sleeping bag - but if you go hiking in England, or Europe, generally, towns and villages are near enough together at the end of the day you can always go to a nice little inn and have a hot bath and something to drink.
In the broad and sweeping sense which the use of the term generally implies, I am not a free-trader.
