@J2: mehyou never answered the question though
@busy: We've done this over and over, and we aren't getting anywhere, I'd chose other things than you in the same situation is all.
You might want to read up on your own replies though, you were the one that said something along the lines of your criminals being tougher.
This argument was always one that existed for its own sake, it doesn't matter to me what you do at home, as we'll probably never meet anyway.

Arrgh
The question was how you'd beat them using your superior brains if it came to a point where you and they were face to face, guns drawn, and all that.
Truth be told I don't think there's a good answer to that
This as I sort of think that your intelligence shows in what you've done to avert the situation, and that what happens in case of an armed confrontation (on this scale) is hard to influence by having the greater mind. No offense.
Guns are a great (in a very frightening way) equalizer, when it comes to these things, I think.
I'm still working on getting this to a 1000 posts, like

The whole point to my previous argument (with regards to this situation) was that the efficiency of the signs didn't require you to have a gun, thoughthe gun is an entirely different animal and should be treated separately
(If it did come to him coming looking for you, gun in hand and all, any signs saying "I have a gun" will have warned him, and you are in deep doody then, gun or not, should it come to that.)
Really, I might well have done everything you would, apart from getting the gun, myself, was I sufficiently motivated.
I think we understand each other now, anyhow.

Guns don't kill people, people kill people...but so do monkeys...if you give them a gun
it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.
I do not own a gun. (well, unless you consider that I live in a community property marriage-law state)
I am scared of guns. Have never held, loaded, or even seen what a 'safety' looks like.
The only time it has been loaded in my presence was when a man was loose in my neighborhood after having murdered his brother and sister in law. My husband kept it on the floor by his chair until we got news that they had found this man. Then he unloaded it and put it back.
I have to say I felt a little safer in this situation with a loaded gun and someone who knows how to use one, if necessary. Had I seen a glimpse of any boisterous, vigilante behavior on his part....I might have been more scared of that than the murderer.
Since I do not have his training and knowledge of guns, I am thinking if I was home alone and heard intruders, I would be safer hiding under the bed instead of grabbing an unloaded gun that I do not know how to load.
It has never been a big issue between us. He never brings it out around me, but has mentioned that if I wish, he will take me to the country and teach me how to load and use it. He is sensitive to my fear and would be the best teacher I could find.
My question is...........since there is a gun in the house, would I be better off knowing how to use it...........or should I go on as is.....fearing it?

Chris Rock quotes
Well where I live just about everyone ownes a gun. I have around 12 myself. Pistol's shotguns rifle's and an AK 47 assault rifle with 30 round clips. All legal here. If someone broke in my home I sould turn them into swiss cheese as they entered no questions asked. All legal here. I have owned guns since I was a teen and know how to use one as good or better than anyone that could confront me. It is my American right to bear arms and I will do so for the defence of me my family and my property so to all the passive non gun owning peeps thats your choice but dont expect me to to give up guns just because you don't like them. Peace yall

An assault rifle? Do you have problems with robots sent back from the future in your local area? Are the local burgulars led by Hans Gruber?

No, the AK 47 is the choice of the terrorist, not the chrono-crime fighter.
