Suggest a smaller weapon to wound but not kill

[Mace Canute]

It occurs to me that an old lady might consider using what nature has given her to ward off intruders. Picture this if you will...late at night there's a noise at the back door...she hears it (hearing aid on & maxed out on gain) and heads out to check it out. She encounters a burglar and they stand facing each other for seconds that seem like hours...then the old lady, who has just gotten out of the tub and has curlers in her hair, avocado skin moisturizer smeared all over her face (she truly needs it) and is wearing just a light robe leers toothlessly at him as she throws wide her robe to expose herself in all her wrinkled naked glory and cackles in a wanton voice ..."Lover boy! Come to Mama!"

Now...that sounds like something a Canadian would come up with...

Whooooaaaaaaa there fellah, there's laws against cruel and unusual punishment in this country. You might get away with something like that in the Great White North, but it wouldn't fly in the good ole' USA.

If that doesn't make you laugh, you're already dead. Happy Tractoring.:tractor::tractor::thumbsup::drink:

The taking of a person's life is normally not an easy decision for the average human being. But consider this. If your opponent has a weapon--gun-- do you really think he or she is contemplating only wounding you. Everything happens so fast. Reaction time is a critical factor in the determination on whether you live or possibly die. Your family needs you. If you point a gun be prepared to use it. The alternative result may not be in your favor. Good luck, hope this enlightens you somewhat. Happy Tractoring.:tractor::tractor:

Reaction time is a critical factor in the determination on whether you live or possibly die.

mostly the bad guys valuate a human life less, have more experience in gunfights and have quicker reaction times than the home owner defending his/her property... So if you only intend to use the gun to scare off and show hesitation, drawing it will be lethal in 80% of the cases.

About the weapon to wound but not kill: i'd suggest dentures

I say go with a 22 with snake shot or a 410 and load shells with rock salt. The rock salt would not do much damage unless it was pressed against you and the wad would probably do more damage, but the rock salt stings like ****.

Bear spray will put anyone on the ground for a good 30 minutes, potentially to the ER. It is many many times stronger than what stores sell for self defence, and you don't even have to score a direct hit on your target. Just be aware that there is a high probability of disableing yourself, and you would definitely have to vacate the house.

btdt. :laughing:
