I live in a quiet neighborhood. But I'm not afraid to blow someones brains out if you come after my family

Sure hope that intruder is not your teen age son or daughter sneaking into he house after curfew or a drunk or drug person looking for help. Happens more times then a legitimate threat. Go ahead and blast away john Wayne.

I can take care of my own. I live in a city with a small department. Cops rake in six figures, don't do much but issue traffic tickets, friend with the working class people and just arrest people with drug problems. Once I reported a crime, gave a detailed description of the person and that was pretty much the end of it.
What am i suppose to do? carry a gun and shot the man for 20 dollars in my pocket? I wasted so much time in my life in Iraq that I'm not willing to put my life in jeopardy for a perk that is broke and can't get job. Why carry a weapon? that'll just escalate the issue. Im done with taking life. I'd rather not put my life in danger. Crime is a capitalist disease.

It is easier to buy a used gun in this country then a used lawnmower. And a lot more of them in working condition.

Absolutely not true. But I do agree a used lawnmower is less likely to work.
that's why you train...

No you can not shoot a person for a hand full of paper. Same reason I do not carry. I would rather have insurance than have to shoot a person for stealing my junk. Guess that makes me a liberal.
so the meth head (or whatever) is trying to cause you harm???
my daughter told me about a time she was with my Mom shopping and some panhandler wouldn't leave them alone until my Mom gave him money.... no time for 911 at that point
this happened a few days ago
screw that
life insurance????
Oh Shoot

First, let's let the FBI and various agencies do their job before we start speculating about all of this. One thing is clear, this could happen anywhere at anytime.
Guns are an issue but more importantly extremism is the problem. When you combine extremism and anger, violence erupts.
I own many guns. I do do legally. I also make sure to train with them and become proficient. I train with a guy who runs a school and is an ex SEAL. With any tool, understanding it comes down to training with it.
The guns and violence issue is such a broader issue than ban all guns. It has many elements that need to be addressed. Not 1 solution will fix this. It will take many different things on many different fronts.
Banning won't work. Prohibition didn't stop alcohol, only made it worse.
I live in south Florida. If a major category 5 comes through and causes major damage and problems with resources and recovery, looting and violence would follow. The police would not have the resources to stop it all. I would want to be prepared to protect my family and my home.

How just saying in this time of crisis, tomorrow will be hell at work and management will not care and try to fired us for logistics problems. late air missed business and over allowed. we are all human and have families we take care of management just cares about themselves we should work together and with each other not against each other. It is what it is tho.#prayfororlando

They were all over the guy , interviewed him several times , never connected the dots. maybe if they had interviewed his wife , listened in on his phone, read his google searches etc they would have figured it out. these domestic terrorist attacks did not happen under bush
