Do we so stuff to feed our dark side?

Like learning how to fight, use a firearm, etc. Is doing these things good for us or does it make us evil even though some of the things we do to feed our dark side might be used to help not only ourselves, but strangers and our love ones?

Nothing WRONG with that, and I don't see it as a dark side.. I learned to fight as a very young pre-teen, and continued up through the Military into Basic Training. A good skill. Also firearm training in an Academy... good things to know

Learning to defend yourself is not "dark side," sunny.

Learning how to fight of owning firearms are a response to bad circumstances.

Since when is preparation dark? Seems pragmatic to me.
