A responsible gun owner is judged by others. Not by the gun owner themself. For example, I consider anyone that open carries a total dickweed, unless they are way out in the middle of east bum**** USA.

Dickweed:

There's a bail bond company out here that has the perfect slogan that also works in regards to gun ownership.

That's pretty much what I was getting at when I asked Batlord if it's okay to shoot robbers..

You are comparing a guy walking through a family restaurant with a person who's defending their home and family from an intruder?

When a person breaks into your home do you stop and question their intentions? If I yell that I have a gun, then cock it, and an intruder decides to still proceed up the stairs? Sorry, but I'm going to be in 100% defense mode based on self preservation for me and mine.

First off my youngest child is 28. Second off, you're 100% right. The odds are miniscule. Thirdly, I'd rather have one and never have to use it, than experience a situation where I wished I had one.

I've been to the range a number of times and have fired a few hundred rounds. I practice all of the safety rules and completely respect my firearm. It's not a show off piece, i.e; Die Hard. You're the one stuck in Hollywood, not me.

Can you name the 4 rules of gun safety? I have them memorized.

I'm gonna guess before you spoil it.. I know nothing about guns.

1. Don't aim it at other people you don't intend to shoot.
2. Keep the safety on
3. Don't keep one in the chamber
4. Don't keep the clip in

Edit: Also, curious if you call the cops in your break in scenario or if you just plan to handle it yourself and call afterward. You didn't mention anything about their involvement.

Great guesses.

1. Always assume a weapon is loaded. (My avatar is Terry Kath. Accidently killed himself because of thinking a gun was unloaded. Clip was out but a round was still in the chamber)
2. Never have a firearm aimed at anything you are not willing to destroy.
3. Keep your booger finger off of the bang switch until you are 100% ready to actually shoot.
4. Always be aware of what's in the background.

Sure. I have a phone in my bedroom. If I knew a stranger was in my home I'd retrieve my Glock, shout out a warning, and then dial 911. The nearest police station to my home is...... actually, I don't even know how far away it is. I have a fire station about a half mile away, so that's pretty cool.

Don't cop out. I'd love to keep up the discussion with lots of real words, but if you want to bail, that's fine too.

This is strictly my opinion but when a break and enter criminal gets shot to death I just feel bad for the criminal dick move to use a gun as self defense over your ****ing TV or some **** just call the cops

And more heinous crimes are overwhelmingly committed by people close to you not by random break-ins
The **** if I'm waiting around to see what they want.
