There is no such thing as a safe neighborhood. Criminals can walk or ride into any "very safe" neighborhood and make it very unsafe. Gated communities are not immune either.
So, it's best for every good citizen to always be prepared (within the laws) to make our neighborhoods unsafe for...
The wounded "victim" or his family will now probably try to sue the store and/or clerk who shot him. It's happened before in Orange County, CA (lawsuit was dropped in the end).
Consider installing CAT 6, RG59 coax, and power cabling to all locations on the home you might want to mount surveillance cameras at in the future.
If you don't keep dogs outside, set up low-profile infrared motion detectors outdoors to cover your entire perimeter and hook them up to the...
I just put together a system in response to 2 recent incidents of vandalism against my property. I already have a good idea of who did it, but I need to get some proof for LEOs to followup.
(4) day/night megapixel IP cameras (Arecont AV3130s) and lenses
(1) 8 port switch with power over...
Yep, it's a waste of time to argue with idiots. These are the same double-standard morons, who if/when faced with a situation where a gun is the only option, will expect others to provide one to them, or otherwise protect them with a gun.
History repeats itself...
+1. I'll support the organization that is hated the most by gun grabbers. The NRA.
The NRA is now leading the fight in CA over off-list semi auto's. Where are JFPO and GOA? Anyone who isn't ignorant knows that gun control cancer-experimentation starts in...
It's sad that the government resorts to intimidating and threatening its citizens with criminalization to squeeze info out of them.
The people who draw out the approach for these things have long forgotten who pays the taxes that contributes to their salaries.
I'm sure most criminals would agree with you, because it works in their favor.
On the other hand, criminals kill people for property every day. I wish they thought just like you, perhaps more innocent victims would be alive.
Good job :)
It's sad when one must consult local laws to determine whether shooting an armed carjacking aggressor who has threatened your life is ok or not. I'm sorry for the hassle Newton was put through, and I hope this is the end of it. Although I have a feeling this guy will do ok if...
AK variant with sidefolder (concealable and low maint., and more sturdy/comfortable than an underfolder).
Or maybe a double barrel shotty in a back scabbard and strap a chainsaw to my arm, ala Bruce Campbell :D

This thread would give future home invaders comfort in knowing some armed homeowners won't harm them, even if they break into a home and not comply with commands from an armed homeowner.
It's a helpful insight for a team of criminals that would use that time of hesitance and legal balancing, to...
+1 on this approach. Get lots of video and digital photos of the damage. Have a presentation package ready to go, present it to LE first, then pass it on to local media if insufficient response.
It sucks when vermin have more protection from the laws than law-abiding citizens.
In the area of losing gun-related freedoms, the biggest problem we have is ~ 70 million gun owners who take their freedom for granted and don't vote accordingly.
It all happens in cycles, and the U.S. isn't exempt from it. This country is still in diapers, we've had one revolution and one civil war; there will be more of the same. I just hope the next one doesn't come within my lifetime.
The best long term solution to this potential issue is to choose better friends who are realistic and take responsibility to protect themselves rather than having you do the footwork and cover the bill. You also may be liable for whatever is done with that firearm (e.g. accidents, unjustifiable...
Disassemble the gun, put the parts in a brown paper bag or some generic looking container, and scrub them outside individually. Also helps if you do it at night. To most folks, it'll just look like your working on a home hobby project or cleaning car parts. Or you can set up a powerful window...
She's old news ... Katrina stole her thunder. Expect more outrageous statements and actions out of her to get back in the news. She seems to be more interested in being a celebrity than a mourning mom anymore. Even Hillary's camp is distancing themselves from her.
