187sks and I are on the same page. From my office chair I look up to see:







Except that I keep a dim red LED light in the living room to prevent killing myself on kids toys when I go see why they are crying in the middle of the night. Oh, and my 22 has a GTL-10 light on the bottom which is HIGHLY recommended.

ive had someone try to break into my house with me in it TWICE now, and both times were in a "safe area of town"

You are more likely to shoot a family member than a robber when you keep guns in the house for protection. Just like the police, accidents happen. I honestly feel sorry for you guys living in fear, in your own home!



Interested in not living in fear? Move to Canada....... eh.

in this gunless society:



Your daughter is eating a twinkie at midnight:

APPROACH THEM: You keep your pimp hand strong

DON'T APPROACH THEM: She'll get diabetes when she's your age



Local methhead breaks into your house:

APPROACH THEM: Get threatened with a screwdriver

DON'T APPROACH THEM: You get your $80 worth of playstation games and digital cameras back in a couple of weeks



T.R.G. or the mafia roll your house:

APPROACH THEM: Get arrested and tazered

DON'T APPROACH THEML Get arrested and tazered





loaded to the hilt with belt-fed RPG launchers and dual wielding AR-15s



Your daughter is eating a twinkie at midnight:

APPROACH THEM: Threaten daughter with gun, potentially cap her dome

DON'T APPROACH THEM: She'll get diabetes when she's your age



Local methhead breaks into your house:

APPROACH THEM: Whisper 'please leave my house' then pray to the castle laws that you have good aim

DON'T APPROACH THEM: You get your $80 worth of playstation games and digital cameras back in a couple of weeks



T.R.G. or the mafia roll your house:

APPROACH THEM: Get shot and bleed out all over the good carpet

DON'T APPROACH THEML Get arrested and tazered





Iunno, it's up to you. I think that people do have the right to bear arms. I just don't really see the need for deadly weaponry lying around the house, with my luck, somebody I love would kill themselves with it, or somebody I hate would be able to use it as a justification to kill me. Nup.

What have I got to be afraid of? I've got a gun! The likelihood of shooting a family member GREATLY increases if you also happen to be black, male, between 16 and 26 years of age, are a gang member, and live in a major urban area. Other than that, the probability is approximately zero. Most of the gun murders in America are young black urban males, killing OTHER young black urban males with whom they were previously acquainted. Drug dealers and their clients, and gangbangers you got in a fight with last week, count as acquaintances.

That ISN'T what I'd be yelling at the time...









LOL at gun kept on high shelf so it is safely out of reach of kiddies, crayons stored on next shelf up.

Stocker

The children know better than to touch any of the guns without asking . . . but if you want to see what kind of mess they can make, move those crayons down a couple shelves.



Texas: I realized I hadn't brought my wallet with me when to the car when I went to slip my carry pistol into the door pocket and it wasn't in its holster. It was in my other pants with the wallet and knife and phone and lighter...
