still in training....

Training in jiu jitsu?

 

[Robino1]

Training in jiu jitsu?

Uh yeah...that's it

You were silent yesterday, busy day?

 

[MostlySunny]

I pray I never have to use it...I do. But I would not hesitate or blink an eye if someone came in my house. Nor would I lose a wink of sleep.

See I just don't fully understand this. Would you pull out the gun and give them a chance to leave? I couldn't take someone's life (probably ever), but certainly not over material items. Now if they were trying to harm me or my kids, maybe. But if someone just wanted my stuff I can't see killing them over it.

Yepper. Lots of yard work yesterday. Spent this afternoon at the neighbors...helping build a small house in his backyard.

I'm sore.

That's the thing too, I know myself and I would freeze up and the perp would be able to take mine away and use it on me.... I honestly don't think I would be able to fire.

Time to kick back and vape some DF

People who would want "stuff" would not hesitate hurting anyone who they ran across. They call it "armed robbery" for a reason. I agree, the "stuff" is of minor consequence. It's the people that matter. I could never live with myself knowing I allowed an intruder to harm anyone in my house. They incur the risk entering without permission.

 

[MostlySunny]

Me either, Robin. I am going to learn to shoot though. A bunch of us from work are going April 10th to "Annie Oakely" night at the firing range. It's females only, FREE, you get lessons and ammo and they have revolvers, rifles and some other type (see I don't even know what they are called!). Learn safety and the basics and then target shooting.

I'm excited. Facing my fears, one at a time!

 

[Bronze]

Aww... Poor Bronze

Yep, pretty tough to be me sometimes.

What if they aren't armed? What if it's just breaking in thinking no one was home and grabbing a jewelry box? Or will you just assume they are armed?

 

[Robino1]

Hmm for some reason I don't see what I typed in my response to Bronze working so hard....

What I did say: Bronze, you deserve to kick back and relax with some DF

Yeah! Whatever!

I thought you'd like that

I will assume they are armed until proven otherwise. I will not take chances. It has to be assumed if someone enters a home without permission there will be a pretty good chance they will harm anyone who gets in the way. I'm guessing the intruder will not allow me the opportunity to quiz him before I choose to pull the trigger.
