There are nuts everywhere. Locking your house should be your first
step. A handgun is an option to consider.

Rob (NRA Life Member)


Don't usually feel the need to lock it... when I go to sleep or if I'm
feeling particularly creeped out after watching a horror flick. I just
re-watched Nightmare on Elm Street last night. So, I locked the doors
(and windows and cars).

Good Lord...don't you get enough of the Kruger family here in

I didn't realize he had a family... Krueger that is...



What else didn't you realize today? Did you obsess over anything outside
of your computer screen?


I didn't realize what a total loser you seem to be until now. You can stop
obsessing about me anytime. We're never going to meet.



For the last time (I hope) - don't flatter yourself. You look average,
at best, and your persona doesn't help you. That might explain why you
live alone.

A word comes to mind...

addlebrained
A adjective
1 addlebrained, addlepated, potty, puddingheaded,
muddleheaded. stupid and confused; used especially of persons;

"blathering like the addlepated nincompoop that you are";

"a confused puddingheaded, muddleheaded fellow"- Isaac Sterne

.....vacuously addlebrained...

I like it.

Good for you! There are people out there who will attack *anyone*.

Honestly, it's not that attractive when you talk about yourself.


Honestly, you could be dumb Donny White's double with that post. Aren't
you a bit smarter than that?

Rob


A bit smarter than a post, definitely. How about you?

You watch too much television or you're just old, feeble and
paranoid.

I don't know if he's old and feeble, but he's definitely paranoid.
I
don't have a problem with guns. If you want to carry, go for it,
but
if
you think you need a gun for protection, you have been watching to
much
television. I'm 60 years old, and I've never been shy about where
I
travel, but in all that time, I've never been in a situation where
I
though I needed a gun. I have been in a few situations where I'm
glad
guns weren't around. I don't even like carrying the weight of a
watch,
I
sure can't see carrying a gun around for years, on the off chance
I
might
have a use for it. Hell, the average cop never pulls his gun.

I've never been shot at but.
In the mid seventies we had our home invade, while we were
sleeping.
The
trauma so upset us that my wife would not remember it for a long
time.
I thought I had just dreamed it for some time. We haven't brought
it
up
to
our Daughter ever because she hopefully has no memory of it as she
was
only 4 or 5.
There have been a few times over the years that we found ourselves,
in
situations that we transited without any problem but the dice could
roll
the other way sometime.
I don't carry but have, in the past, in the course of my job.
We've been broken into one other time and had different vehicles
vandalized several times. Dirt in the gas ruined children's little
four
wheelers. Daughter's truck has had fuel filters changed and line
flushed
three times. Boat motor almost ruined by someone putting water in
the
tank. We live in a rural area and have great LEOs. Most of the time
we
simply said nothing because, there was nothing to be gained except
for
the
one time and we were so traumatized that we denied it happened for
a
long
while.
The need to protect one's self and their family is great. A firearm
is
appropriate, in many situations.


I live in a fairly remote area. We have a very active neighborhood
watch
(unofficial) system... phone tree and people who check around
regularly.
We've had a few situations of unwanted "guests" checking out
people's
property, but the worst case in my memory (only been here about five
years)
was some low-lifes who stole a few things on someone's property.
Someone
got
their description and car license, and they were caught pretty
quickly.
I
have a 20-gauge but it's not like I could get it out and ready that
quickly.
My neighbor wanted to give me a handgun for my b-day, because I'm
the
only
resident in my house, but passed. I have pepper spray. I have no
objection
to handguns, but I don't feel like I need one. I have good locks,
but
most
people don't really lock up their house around here. Sometimes I do,
but
only if I'm not at the house.



There are nuts everywhere. Locking your house should be your first
step.
A handgun is an option to consider.

Don't usually feel the need to lock it... when I go to sleep or if I'm
feeling particularly creeped out after watching a horror flick. I just
re-watched Nightmare on Elm Street last night. So, I locked the doors
(and
windows and cars).

A word comes to mind...

addlebrained
A adjective
1 addlebrained, addlepated, potty, puddingheaded,
muddleheaded. stupid and confused; used especially of persons;

"blathering like the addlepated nincompoop that you are";

"a confused puddingheaded, muddleheaded fellow"- Isaac Sterne

....vacuously addlebrained...

I like it.
