This John raised his boys on one principle. Get out alive. That's *it*. Nobody else matters. You don't hurt or kill civilians if you can help it. Or other hunters, if you can help it. But. If they get in the way, well - in a war, there are casualties, and some of them are civilians. This John? Has no remorse, and no mercy, and he will shoot you dead if you fuck with him.
And Sam and Dean learned that leasson well and early. *Family* - is all that matters.
Of course, you don't leave yourself with no resources, and you don't spoil your own nest but... There's no way the boys want to play. Playing is done in the safety of that night's bolthole, and 'playing' is usually a form of training, and only John gets to see that kind of vulnerability. Not outsiders.

Thank you so much, bay-bee.
