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

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.
