I will protect my self and my family!

6 houses down from my home, last night, 2 men broke into a 85 year old womans house and was greeted by her shooting at hem. she missed, but it was enough to scare them off. Sadly it didn't stop there. the 2 guys continued on from there robbing a old man, shooting him while he was in bed, tied him up, then robed his house. after that, broke into a closed local convenient store down the street from me. Mom and i are both worried. Moms got our riffle locked and loaded so if they try this on us, we'll make sure to give them some lead in there diet. God forgive me if it happens, but I'm ready to kill to protect my self and my mother... i hate saying that.. but i really do mean it. its so odd just saying it.. I hate the idea of killing another human being i really do. I'm a non violent person, and the only times ive ever shot a gun was just for target practice when i would visit my grandma in the country. The idea of hurting a human being makes me sad.. but when i herd about all the break ins earlier today, all i could think about was what i would do if i had the upper hand. Every scenario played out with me making the decision to shooting them both dead before they had the chance to harm ether of us. i would feel so horrible, but i wont let them hurt us. I have scratched, risen above the stereotype, and fought too hard in my life to get where i am today just to let 2 assholes steal it all away.

they have no right to trespass on your property...
I'm NOT a violent person either but if I had a gun and i saw 2 men on my property at night (or even during daytime), I'd fuck up their skulls.
Be safe and i hope nothing happens to you!

Shoot them between the eyes. They are scum of the earth. I know what it means to deal with thieves. My younger brother's friends and him have stolen so much from me and no one would do anything about it. They stole my 360 which was the last straw and worse part I've never done anything to them in my life and they decide to ruin mine. Don't let them rob you man if anyone steals from you then you shoot them point blank in the face and claim self defense.

What they said! Show them that they can't fuck with your life or family if they try to. If someone messes with you, then let karma do its job. If someone, however, fucks with your life or family, then become karma.

Better to have one and never need it than need one and never have one.  If anything, a firearm should be used as a deterrent or a club, not used as designed in anger.  However, if this situation happened to me - shoot first, let the police and medics sort things out after... because I'll either be too wounded or too shocked to do anything.

heres what you do, remain on alert, but dont be over paranoid. if something DOES happen, shoot to kill. These men obivously dont care for human life and there are LESS Legal issues with shooting and killing a person or persons espeshaly armed ones, when they are doing a home invasion then if you simply incapacitated them.

When someone crosses the line of acting like what they want is more important than the safety and wellbeing of other people, they cease to be human in my eyes. I believe in love and tolerance for all people, but if you're not going to act like a person, I don't feel obliged to treat you like one.  

You shouldn't feel ashamed of wanting to protect the things and especially the people you care about. I understand the hestitation though, I'm ironically nonviolent, despite the fact that my nature itself is inherently confrontational, and the idea of hurting someone makes me feel like a monster. I just know that that sort of person is hardly a person at all, even if they have what they think  are good reasons.

It's stories like these that makes sure that I'm happy that I live in a country where guns are outlawed!

I live in Wyoming. We're the same way here. We have plenty of guns and we know how to use them. I only have them for protection and I don't ever plan on actually needing them so I can understand how you feel. I wouldn't want to shoot some one, but I will in a heart beat if it came down to them or me.

I tend to follow details that others pass up and how many 85 year old women make the news for scaring the creeping crud out of a burglar.

It's the opposite over here. If you shot or stabbed someone for burgling your house, you would get arrested for it and they would be allowed free.

I'm down here in San Antonio, So I can attest to that. Every supermarket has either its own gun section, and/or ammo section.  Red States. Whatcha gonna do?

I know eh, that 85 year old woman should have done the decent thing and let those two rob her, and potentially kill her.

I'm very left wing, but I'll never understand the liberal hatred of self defence... :S

Well, owning a gun here is pretty much illegal and no one has one. I think guns should be illegal in America too but that is never going to happen, haha.

I think a gun is the easiest thing to use to defend yourself. you can do it from a moderate distance, and it's point and pull. For that reason anyone should be able to have one for defending themselves. In some countries where guns are banned it's effective, but all it does is make it so a criminal will use a knife instead, and if you want to defend yourself you have to use a knife as well, which takes a lot more skill and puts the defender at more risk because it's close. Many knife fights end up with serious injuries or death to both sides. You ban knives and then it's hand to hand combat, or makeshift weapons, and likely your attacker will have the upper hand as they like to prey on the weaker people. The easier it is for a person to defend themselves the better. If it's against the law criminals will either ignore the law and have a gun anyways (most don't buy a gun at a store, they buy it on the streets or steal one) or use the next best weapon which would be harder for the defender to use.

If everyone had a gun you can bet casual crime would slow down, because a lot of criminals aren't that tough, and use superior weapons, or intimidation to get what they want. If everyone could be carrying a gun, it'd always be a life or death encounter for both parties. Like the story goes, the little old lady opened fire and they took off. If that old man had a gun maybe one of the criminals would be dead instead, or at least scared off enough to not try more crime for a while.


Edit: America definitely has a problem, but I don't think its gun control. I think it's a cultural rootin tootin cowboy problem.

More about lowering crime then really. Guns don't kill, people do.
Still, although I wouldn't mind firing a gun I wouldn't want them to be legal.

Always shoot to kill.  less paperwork and the courts have already set a precedent that those injured on your property, even though they are committing a crime by breaking into your home, can sue you and win.

That's what a lot of people misunderstand about the "pro-gun" types, you don't go looking for trouble, you just be prepared in the chance that you have no other option.  Do what needs to be done to protect you and yours.

I know the feeling my neighborhood has also faced a rash of burglaries starting within the last few days. They usually come in around 1-3 in the morning and steal stuff from houses even if the people are inside, but my street has two cops living on it and about every 1 in 3 neighbors is armed to the teeth.

Well, I hope you don't have to use your weapon, but be sure of your target as I'm sure you've already been told for a long time.  Once you make out that the figure isn't a resident, don't hesitate.

Just be mindful, because it's a rifle, that the round isn't going to stop so easily.  Shallow, upward angle shots with a rifle are the safest if you're not sure the wall is gonna catch it.  Makes sure the round sails over the heads of anyone on the other side of that wall, rather than into them.

Be safe and I hope the cops catch these guys before anything else happens in your neighborhood.

As long as you have an understanding and respect for life. Don't let it twist your aim. They may not be as respectful of life if you miss. I pray you won't have to make that decision

no need to be ashamed... i live in a rural part of southern oregon that has had 20 or so breakins in the past two months. i sleep with my pistol in an open drawer where my hand lays while asleep.

we have a motto here in southern oregon "police dont prevent crime, they react to it" the nearest patrol is 16 minutes away amusing hes not on duty; if he is, its 12-30 mins away depending on where shes at in the patrol.

yarg... keep safe and remember if you pull the trigger you mean to kill what you are aiming at.

if they do break in to your place and you have the option to shoot them, aim for the legs. the pain will be too great for them to be able to do anything, and then you can call the cops on their sorry asses!
(If you feel a little more punishment is in order, shoot both their legs, maybe even more than once. that is what I would do to be honest, lol )



GOOD LUCK MY FRIEND

Whatever you do, don't go onto a public website and talk about it. It can and will be used against you in a court of law.

u might want to get something other than a rifle. No they do good at "long range trust me I own a mousin nagant thats a 7.62 x 54 round  i can leave a hole in the ground 2 ft by 2 feet but u have to hope u can aim, breath and squezze the trigger with out pulling the rifle so the bullet goes off course. Its hard to do in a stressful situation. So if u want good home defense a 9mm or 12 gauge would do well. I have a few special order rounds. A friend called em Havana Jungle. I just say it like it is. Buck shot and bird shot mixed and i aint missin shit with tht. And also they cant use shit against u. It is legal to shot them on private property or if u feel ur life is threatend. but if they r breaking in u have to wait till both feet hit the carpet bfor u shoot em.
