A trust is a good way to keep knowledge of your estate confined to your heirs and your attorney.

Funny story re hoodies, shortly after I moved to Arizona I went to the park one day, just to sit and watch the ducks in the pond. I see two young guys enter the park wearing hoodies and coming in my direction, my Cali antennae immediately went up. After observing them for awhile I realized...

No, because both were dressed "normally".

You're still implying that I would use dress as a reason to draw a gun, after I clearly explained that I consider appearance AN indicator, not a SOLE indicator. Here's what I wrote (https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/things-to-not-do.929438/post-12875633): I never said appearance...

That was your reply to "What we don’t know is was he wearing a business suit (doubtful) or did he look like he just came out of a biker bar." I disagree. A guy wearing a bandana and a heavy neck chain, ESPECIALLY IF HE HAS TEARDROP TATTOOS ON HIS FACE (gangbangers put one of these for each...

@dogtown tom said he didn't need to flip guns.

$0.02 fine for excessive logic.

Arriving while it was still dark outside and then covering the doorbell camera was BAITING the inhabitants to shoot them. And didn't somebody post upthread that it was NOT a "no knock" warrant?
