My solution is simple. I now have a 12 gauge shotgun, and a semi-automatic rifle. They are both loaded at all times. I also have two big dogs who have both decided that they don’t like strangers.

I think once some of these criminal idiots start getting capped by decent citizens, there will be a decrease in attacks on folks like you and me.

If you get a chance, you should read the law on the use of force against people who trespass your home. There’s a presumption that the use of deadly force is reasonable, if the intrusion was forcible.

This time, I have a much shorter and easier CAPTCHA. I wonder if I’ll get he same “(null)” page error.

Or reintroduce the stocks….
