My home security system.Used and bred by Louisiana State prisons as guard, convict "fetch" dogs.Also good for Bear Hunt'n & Boar Hunt'n.
What am I going to do, if I come to my house that is 1/2 mile from the road and locked up, I come in with my wife and/or granddaughters, and there's a guy IN MY HOUSE hiding in a closet or behind a door?"Excuse me sir, are you a dangerous guy? Do you have a weapon or gun? Is it your plan to kill me or mine, or steal my stuff, or are you kind of like, innocent maybe? Can you show me some ID or give me a reference, please?"Not. And the sheriff, prosecutor, and judge will shake my hand after.Lannis
That dog is right purdy as they would say in my birthplace of Appalachia.
For shooting an unarmed guy who is hiding and not attacking you? Not sure I would Lannis.
We don't lock out doors during the day unless plans are to be gone all day. I would move if a security system and or carrying a firearm was a necessity for survival.
I agree but I believe Lannis is saying there's no time to make a decision ....But suppose it's a neighbor's kid...There's no for sure answer unless it happens...Many years ago I lived in a rough city neighborhood. Ground level apartment in a large house. I was napping when a noise woke me up, like a person . I burst into the main room and found a guy near the entry door.."WHO the F are You"!!! He ran out and down the road like his ass was on fire...I was unarmed... We don't lock out doors during the day unless plans are to be gone all day. I would move if a security system and or carrying a firearm was a necessity for survival.
Didn't you play a banjo in "Deliverance"?Ralph
Like fire insurance. I've paid $40,000 in fire insurance for my house over the years, even though I nor none of my family have ever had their house burn down. Do most people carry fire insurance too? Most people do, and they spend WAY more on that insurance than I do on arms and ammo for something that has never happened and is not likely to happen.Lannis
Fire insurance is for monetary reimbursement for a loss...A weapon is to protect you and or family from bodily harm.. Insurance won't prevent a occurrence...But a weapon including properly used feet and hands can be preventive. I don't advocate using lethal force against unarmed burglars but I do believe they should be kicked,punched,pistol whipped,dragged,flogged and otherwise caused enough pain to remember the situation.

I would not rely on dogs, and we have owned a few. They are good for alerting us to someone around the house, but, that's about it. If we are not home the dog is no deterrent to a thief.Daughter and husband have two, a jack russell type and a doberman mix. Both go rabid when the mailman or anyone else comes to the door. They were broken into twice. The dogs were shut in the closet when they got home. No blood anywhere.But, if you have a dog that is known to bite people and is big enough, that might be enough, but, most are not. Bark and growl does not equate to a 'guard dog' and most criminals, even the stupid ones, know that. Most dogs have to be trained to be aggressive like that. If any doubt then take your dog to a good trainer and have them tested or trained. Beware, this can have legal consequences if your dog ends up biting someone.
