When's the last time your house burned down?
When's the last time your neighbor's house burned down?
When's the last time ANY house in your neighborhood burned down?
For me, the answer is never.
Now ask yourself how important fire protection in a gun safe is.
Now that you ask... about 5 years ago it burnt to the ground. Second fire in 20 years in that house. It burnt down after I left "home". Had a house "fire" a couple of years ago due to lightning strike killing a transformer on one of my phones, which heated up and was starting to smoke (imagine if I hadn't been home and anal retentive about locating the smell of ozone, the smell of fried electronics). I got to that one before any real damage could start. So that would be 3 fires, all could have take the house down in less than 25 years.
I have seen lightning strike my house from the inside (saw a huge flash right at ceiling level while I was in the house) during a lightning storm.
I guess fire is a worry to me
Leadcousel,
About the burglery, had that one happen once.
About the ticks issue brought up later... more times than I can count.
The serious car wreck... have lost 4 relatives to car wrecks, see flipped cars a couple times a year, see cars totaled almost everyday going to work (had two totaled myself... one was dodging debris and failing.. the other I was Tboned). Aunt was hit by a semi that didn't touch the brakes while in a traffic jam.
Threatened with deadly force... do the threats to my father about driveby's count since I was living in the house? We had some real pieces of work "visit" us when he crossed the union lines. Bought more than one windshield and every car had new tires by the end.
Heck folks, yall just made me realize something... I should never leave my house again the way my life is working out Nah... gotta pay for diapers somehow )
