Given the choice of my current friends and neighbors, and yourself, I'm fine, thanks.

Kinda off topic, but here's a good story.

When we lived in Montana in the late '70's it looked like every pickup had a rifle rack in the back window with 2 or 3 rifles.

We didn't have a rack & I left my rifles at home.

One weekend we drove to Canada for a short visit. Remember, we lived in Montana. At the border, the guard looked in the pickup and said, "Where's your gun?" We laughed and said they were at home. He grinned & let us through.

If women took up arms to defend their reproductive rights, would the GOP and NRA ban assault rifles??

You might not like the response you get some men don't know how to protect their women's rights.

"If women took up arms to defend their reproductive rights, would the GOP and NRA ban assault rifles??"

I'm simply at a loss to address the lack of logic and ignorance of that remark.

Then why did you address it?

I didn't.

The fact is - If you are capable of formulating such an incomprehensible statement, you will be "in"capable of understanding its faults.

God bless you buddy. Just forget about it and relax with your kool-aid.

As a former resident of Pennsylvania, we were experiencing a rise in home invasions in the rural areas. These tended to be two or more assailants. Most came from Baltimore and Philadelphia who were expecting "easy pickin's".
I have kept a couple handguns stashed around the house for years...no kids here, so no problems there.
I do the same here in Vermont...although when my wife's sister comes up (from Lebanon, NH) with her kids, the pistols are secured during their visits.
Now, VT's Governor recently stated that there is a influx of heroin coming into the state...Boston and NYC. We will see those home invasions...no doubt about that. And one cannot beat an AR-15 (or equivalent) for these types of crimes.
Our plan (should it happen to us) is to beat it to the bedroom, call the cops (we won't see a rapid response though). As long as the assailants stay out of the bedroom...well, there isn't a lot for them to steal and we do have insurance. If they do come into the bedroom, the odds are they won't be walking out.

BTW, I always suggest using frangible ammunition for a home defense firearm. It'll stop an intruder, but won't go through walls (to a point).

Also, it wasn't that Australian who caused me to leave TBN...it was the removal of my sig line (which I've changed...but this one is a temp until I figure out a better one).
