Folks, Lawdog has a GREAT post up on self defense. Take a couple of minutes to go read and reflect…
Having been the victim of two break-ins, one in Hawaii and one in California, I am here to tell you that perps DO NOT like being met by an armed and pissed off individual. Both times the perps were armed, once with a knife, once with a gun. In both cases I used a shotgun for defense (never had to fire Thank God); and both perps were yelling for me not to kill them…
I am a firm believer in armed self defense and practice that on a daily basis.
Nobody Asked Me…
Veritas nos liberabit
Amen, brother. Amen.
Exactly why you are here to tell us, too. 🙂
Wyatt- I know you folks are pepetually snowed under, there is NO WAY you can possibly respond to every call.
RT- Sorry, but I’m an old fart, grew up in the South where one relied on themselves to take care of ‘situations’, as the LEO’s were few/far between.
I grew up carrying a rifle or shotgun and pistol in the car depending on the season… Never a thought of a carry permit. All the LEO’s knew we had guns; hell, they could see them in the gunrack in the pickup 🙂
Amen brother. Shick Shick!
Exactly Captain! But it’s hell getting piss stains out of white carpet… Human bladders are a LOT bigger than dogs… 🙂
