help? What will either of those actions get you? That's right...... dead. For someone (like me) who has a loaded pistol in my nightstand,
the outcome will likely be two dead thugs, and my family and property safe.
I wonder how many times your outcome is what really happens as
opposed to something else. E.g. one of the kids finds the gun
and plays with it.

Anyone who allows the chance of a kid finding/playing with the gun
should be prosecuted and jailed. In my case, the kids are grown,
and even yet, the gun is in a locked (biometric quick-open) small
safe. All the other guns in the house are locked in a large safe
in another room. Zero chance of anyone accessing any of them "accidently".

How quickly can you access the firearms when the armed thugs
break in?

The one in my bedroom (locked in a biometric-lock small safe) - in
2-3 seconds. Probably less if I'm not fully asleep.
'Biometric" as in how? Fingerprint? Eye-scan? Bettery powered or
on the grid? If I enter your house illegally and shut-off the
power first, is the safe still safe? Can it still be opened?
Just curious.
Personally I don't get excited about gun-ownership but if I'd
live in Montana, I'd have one.
I've had one break-in attempt many years ago, young kids (like in
their 20s) trying to get in via the garage. Now I still have my grandfather's WW1 bayonet sheathed. These were not small things
but long heavy things, like a small sword. Slammed-on the lights,
stood there, unsheathed the bayonet/sword in plain sight and I
swear I've never seen anyone run as fast as these kids to the
get-away car.
Ever since, I also have baseball bats at strategic locations, out
of sight, but where I know they are.
many places needs to pass a gun safety course. You seem to be from
Florida, which has a more lenient set of rules.
To hell with lefty democrats telling us what we should and shouldn't do.

The thug has 2-3 seconds to block you from your gunsafe then....

Is that any less acceptable than "righty" conservatives telling
women what they can do with THEIR bodies?
Yes, it is. Here's why:
Gun rights are GUARANTEED by the US Constitution.
The act of killing babies is NOT protected by the Constitution.
There. Pretty simple, isn't it?
"Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of
religion..." ALL of the anti-abortion arguments are based on
their religion
Another question is how does he distinguish between the noise
that a burglar makes versus the noise that one of his adult
children dropping in unannounced because of a bad break up with
their girlfriend/wife/husband?
Well, considering that they are not living anywhere near me, and
don't have a key to the house anyway, that possibility is zero.
Do you always speak in the third party? Why hide behind Ward if
you have a question for me?
Right and wrong are a matter of personal opinion.
It's more about choices and morality, rather than right or wrong.
People do things knowing in advance that they are wrong, but they do them anyway.
The Truth is that there are people from both sides of
the isle that are at odds with the abortion issue. So your attempt to
this a righty conservative issue, is yet another example of your fail
Anti-abortion is a conservative outlook, regardless of which political
persuasion one is aligned to
It's more about pro-life vs pro-choice. and less about being
Conservative vs being Liberal. To have what your saying make any sense it would have to mean that liberals do not love their children and that is simply NOT true.
A foetus cannot be murdered - unless they make abortion illegal. If it
is legal it is not murder.
It's much more complicated then that?
What is a fetus?
When does life begin?
Is it a fetus still when born at the end of a full term pregnancy.
At what point does it become immoral?
Why is it acceptable to kill someone entering a home uninvited, but not
for a woman who has an unwanted conception?
Choices leads to intent which leads the criminal act which leads to judgment and then punishment.

that means they have to figure out the layout of the building, where the bedrooms are, and get there in that same 2-3 seconds... i think dan has the advantage there if he is awakened by the sound of their entry...
yeah, that's a big "if" but depending on the setup, easily handled... especially if it is a two or three story building... we won't even
mention motion sensors and being able to tell where they are before they get too far in...
to full term delivering the child normally then making the child
comfortable before it's murdered, that is not only wrong but it is also
inconceivability evil.

they got 10 of them (out of 12) and removed one of my meager sources of
food (eggs)... i'm still angry and sad about that...
There I see a use for a firearm (doesn't need to be a military weapon though).

Then of course, a properly maintained fence could work equally well, without the need for any guns, no?
At least it seems to work for my neighbours, with a lot of foxes,
wolves and stray dogs running around here.

Bullshit. I'm anti-abortion and could not care less about
religion. Speaking for myself, I'm against it because I don't
think an innocent baby should be killed because the mother is irresponsible/stupid, or for any other reason for that matter.
So... it's always the female's fault? The bloke has never coerced
her into opening her legs?
Adoption is always a better option.
Yeah - sure.

I.e. they would just have to sit outside your house making a lot
of noise until you came to investigate?
Yep. I'm done responding to you. FOAD.
With all of the firearms in your area the likelihood is that you will proceed me.
Some while back another USAmerican Fidonetter (whose name we do not mention)
made all sorts of boasts regarding his prowess with firearms...
He is no longer with us.
Thank you for your participation.

He is still on the nodelist ...
Are you related to the Orange Man?
Name a word that rhymes with orange.
Can't do it?
Nobody else can, either.
That means there can be only one.
The world is so lucky. :)
