Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I think the joke here was that, like jimbob in the gif, Daphne wasn't actually being attacked the Klanners at the time. The 'its coming right for me' is being used to justify killing the target(s), the ram(?) in jimbob's case, the Klanners in Daphne.
Also like Jimbob, no crime was depicted in either image, only justified self defense as would be recognized by a jury of their peers.
EDIT: Jimbo not jimbob lmao
I think you may not have the context from that gif. The animal wasn't actually coming right for them, or doing anything other than standing there, it's just being used as a thinly veiled justification to open fire. This is a clip from another part of that episode with the context explained to the kids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTrMBI5fvfA
