Another School Massacre

[southwind]

So if suddenly you awaken and realize you have an intruder or are aroused from sleep by someone crashing through your door, what's the KC defensive plan to see the sun arise tomorrow?

2 shotgun blast...............err...............wait............no shotgun in the house ! How 'bout a recording of a shotgun blast? Maybe one of Tree's deterents................. ear-splitting alarm, Pomeranian, mace or saying "Pretty please" !

7 is the magic number. You can't commit mass murder (defined as 4 or more) with a 7 round magazine.

I suppose anything could happen Dell, but as I said, in 121 years of my family history - it HASN'T happened and the one time anybody was on our property when they shouldn't have been, my DOG took care of the problem

South...a recording of a dog barking has thwarted about as many crimes as displaying an UZI

Agreed! The point being it's my life to live as a choose and defend myself and my property as I choose free from the heavy hand of government.

True story for you south....when my first dog (a gentle little labrador with a big, nasty bark) was young, I used to go home at lunch to let her out to pee. While eating lunch in my suburban neighborhood with 2 income familie in the middle of the day, the doorbell rang. My puppy, who most likely would have licked the guy went berserk with barking....by the time I got to the front door, this guy was backing off the porch and getting ready to hit the highway. Were his intentions less than good? Nobody knows. But...without a single shot fired...or a single shell chambered, the "threat" to my home was taken care of. In my CURRENT house I have TWO 80 pound labs who lounge on the sofa in the living room (I'm single therefore the dogs own the living room) and they look out the front window. When someone is in the yard or driveway, they BOTH make a horrendous barking sound and the younger one has that badass raised hair on the neck look that I really don't think I need a gun. Combine that with the fact that the police station is less than a mile down my street...I feel pretty safe.

Of course, that doesn't protect me from government oppression,but then again, I'm not one who feels the government is out to get me

I used to watch Bad Boys Bad Boys......while they smashed down druggie doors and these bred to be badassed dogs crapped them selves and ran to hide.......Thought, hmmmm so much for a dog alarm.

I too have a dog and she is a good watch dog as far as sleeping overnight. Shes there to alert me IF she hears something, then its up to me to spread defensive fire with my M-60 until police come IF I can cool my noogies enough to dial a phone. KC, in a situation like this, dialing and talking on a phone are a challenge.
Also, hopefully none of us ever have to endure such an experience....

I guess the good news is that after the criminal uses 2 rounds to kill your dogs he will only have 5 rounds left in his magazine to kill your family. Then again, criminals always obey the law and the police always show up before a crime occurs.

Yeah dell...and I had a german shepard that took out a florist because he reached into the back of a van and when his hands disappeared - down went the delivery guy. BUt we live in a nation where it's not just a loner thug....it's hordes of marauding thugs and we need semiautos with a 100 shot magazine to protect ourselves

Yes...if the dog barking doesn't alert me, the two shots would alert the neighbors....who would alert the police. I'd miss the dogs, but I have an idea that if anyone wanted in my house bad enough to shoot my dogs, then I guess I really wouldn't want to live in this country anymore

Indeed. KCFlyer: "Yeah dell...and I had a german shepard that took out a florist because he reached into the back of a van and when his hands disappeared - down went the delivery guy."

"I had a german shepard that took out a florist..." So then...Let me get this straight here. You've no problem whatsoever with having obviously poorly (if at all) trained and dangerous animals at you beck and call, at least one of which has already gone so far as to attack an innocent florist (which you strangely seem to feel's sufficent for bragging rights)......BUT....you absurdly believe yourself qualified to tell me how many rounds any magazine I own should hold?....Noting that ZERO personal weapons of mine have EVER injured any innocent person? I must fairly note that even my "gun nut" self has never allowed any dog of mine to bite ANYONE. That's called exercising some degree of adult control over adversely developing situations....as opposed to dialing 91Yelp/Whine/Pretty Please help me Mr. Dogcatcher!

Half of All Dog Bite Victims are Children!

"...it’s important to understand how over 4.5 million people in the US get bitten by dogs every year."
http://www.edgarsnyd...statistics.html

So...You're perfectly fine with over 2 MILLION children being bitten by dogs in a given year? it gets worse from there: "In 2012, 38 dog attacks resulted in death: 19 child victims and 19 adult victims." You "dog nuts" are directly responsible for the deaths of 19 children in 2012 alone! http://www.dogsbite....-fatalities.php How can you "dog nuts" even live with yourselves? Government action MUST be taken to stop these atrocities!

Good people everywhere! It's far past time to disarm all these irresponsible, lunatic "dog nuts" of their obviously uncontrolled and dangerous weapons! Just hink of how much "safer" our world would be! At the very least; we should immediately ban all "assault dogs" the likes of german shepards!...As well as requiring thourough background checks for anyone so much as wanting to transfer ownership of even chihuahuas! If you do NOT completely agree with that "logic"....then you dare not call yourself a concerned (and of course, absolutely "brilliant") liberal!

Yes and the world has changed with regard to violence and crime over those 121 years.

Hey east..you can't fix stupid. That shepart wasn't barking....just looking with the hair up on his neck. We lived in the country and I told the guy to let me put the dog up. He said he wasn't afraid. When he opened the back door of the van and his hands disappeared, he broke loose from grip and intercepted the guys arm. YOu know, had that guy been POSING as a florist, as our marauding thugs are wont to do, I didn't even have to fire a single shot. Trouble is East..."in the country" there are a lot of people who are suspicious of anybody they don't know...perhaps one of them "campers" dell linked to would come out the front door with his AR15.

Yep....the world has sure changed. Back then we had the "boogie man". Then it was the "boogie men", until today when it's marauding hordes. Life must suck as a Mad Max movie

Speaking of the world changing, check out thread 8 in the Heterophobia rant and tell me if you think these people are of sound mind to have access to weapons.
Funny, growing up I can't recall anything like that at all.
