good point. a lot of anti-gun folks assume that the individuals guns are meant to protect from are not always rational agents. i guess a warning shot could have been fired through the glass, but that might give a potentially armed criminal time to react less than favorably.Te Occidere Possunt Sed Te Edere Non Possunt Nefas Est. -
To clarify, if he had a weapon and was trying to gain entry, I wouldn't wait. It's if I didn't see a weapon where I hope I'd give him a couple of seconds to rethink his plans while staring down a barrel of a gun.Originally posted by camleish View Post"Remember to double tap"Comment

Here in CA, they have to be in your home and you feel your life and that of your loved ones was in mortal danger, not just on your property. Their deceased family is going to sue the shit out of you anyways, even if you are in the right.

This happened five minutes away from the house I grew up in.
There was also a fatal gang-related stabbing near my house a few months ago. Kinda crazy."I don't know the origin of said bitch booming."-Art Vandelay

I instantly thought of the movie Law Abiding Citizen. I don't get why they have to be in your house to feel your life, or your family's lives are in danger. For crying out loud, if someone is busting the glass out of a window to get in my house I would instantly think danger. I shouldn't have to wait until they actually get in my house to feel threatened and justified to shoot.Comment

Looks like another home invasion in Bluffdale was spoiled. The home owner hit the intruder over the head with a shovel and the intruder ran.
Today someone set fire to that same house and the cops are pretty sure it is related.
That is scary stuff.*Banned*Comment

The lesson here is to shoot and kill the home invader as a means of home fire protection.Originally posted by cougjunkie View Post"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill

A Kirby salesman stopped by offering to clean my carpets for free. Any wisp of a temptation was dismissed as soon as I remembered this story.Originally posted by Pheidippides View PostNot that, sickos.Comment
