I can't believe they did it !

Would have to look for sure, but think it runs about $250 a year for two adults here in Texas.

Well I for one don't really care about what anyone would think in a courtroom or anywhere else after put a 30-30 round into someone that breaks into my house, kills my German Shepherd (because that's the only way they are going to get to me) and threatens the lives of my wife and I in my home..

If the situation ever happened you are not going think of what 'might' happen when it's done..

We went from someone stealing things out of an unlocked vehicle to a home invasion, big difference, if they break into my well locked vehicle or shop, there isn't much I can do.. I wouldn't even send the Shepherd after them, I would be afraid they would hurt him, for what? a couple of wrenches.. I would report it, maybe throw up a camera or two and that's about it..

When I'm out and about you can bet I'm carrying and have done so for 30 years. I have spent thousands of dollars in firearms and extensive defensive training at the Sig academy in NH and a local well known state police instructor here in Maine, I have learned about every way possible to leave a potential problem without using force and I advise anyone that hasn't already done so that carry's a firearm to find a place that specializes in defensive training.. I thought I knew exactly what I should do in a certain situation and I didn't.. It isn't cheap but if someone is going to carry a firearm it's money well spent..

What happens if it's a LEO that breaks into your home and kills your dog?

We have to many cold, fast and silty rivers to even need a backhoe or excavator. If the fishes don't eat you, the bears will. Nature works!

Fairbanks to Prudhoe bay when allowed by weather, at least 20 years, ago you wouldn't need a silty river for a body to never be found IMO.

I guess we find out today how far this country has gone down that same wrong road.

Yeah, I just heard that mentioned on the radio. I'm curious as to the outcome also.

Did they identify themselves? Do they have a warrant?
There have been cases where the police performed unlawful entry and ended up being shot at. The shooter was found innocent of any wrong doing in several that I know of. I also know of some where the police entered without Identifying themselves and then killed the home owner as they attempted to defend themselves against what they thought was an intruder.

You would be surprised what you can think about in a bad situation, especially when you have extensive training and confidence in your skills.

Remember - drag the bad guy into your house after you neutralize the situation. You can't leave him in the front yard

With a pig pen and some hungry pigs and a "little time" . . .

What LEO is going to break into you're house with a German Shepherd barking behind the door without announcing who he/she is and then shoot the homeowners dog and then proceed to my bedroom without saying a word?? Have to be a pretty stupid person to begin with and they would pay for their stupidity, LEO's are people and I treat them like any other person, they are not special to me, my family is special to me.. Use some common sense Sig...

kenmac, thanks for the link to SDF. I signed up.

Glad it works for you.
If you carry. You really need to have some type of insurance.
There a few companies out there
Some reimburse you for out of pocket. Meaning you have to put your money up front.
With SDF. You don't put your money up
