So some say they "don't feel comfortable with a gun in the home", well I don't feel comfortable being raped in my own home! Talk about being a target! LOL

Where is the outrage that criminals have guns? Where are the calls for legislative action to force guns out of the hands of criminals?

Alarm systems and a good weapon. Man's best friend in this toilet bowl of an economy and debt that is only getting worse.

Spend $20-$30 a month an have a House Alarm. Even just put stickers up so criminals don't think you are an easy mark.

"Ever think that the guy from the security company was lying to make a sale?....johnathanb52"- Nope, it was the guy installing them that told me. Not the salesman. I had already made up my mind & ordered them weeks earlier.

I listened to a recording of a 911 call at a meeting i was attending. The woman was locked in her bedroom and she was unarmed. The person on the phone with her assured her the police were on their way. She was sexually assaulted before they arrived and the guy left. The terror of that woman on the recording still haunts me. Then I think about the case in the news recently about the woman hiding her children in the attic as a man was going through the house. She was terrified, but shot the man several times as he entered the door. My thought is, " Ladies, which woman do you want to be"?

"these kids need to be off the streets for good! gun toting, abusive theives have no place amongst the general population, however, I do not think the answer is more guns! how backwards!!"

Do you prefer how this invasion ended over the homeowner having shot one or both of these men? A gun is a great equalizer.

Does it bother anyone that the younger perp, 16-year-old Shabar Master Marshall lived at an address within 1000 feet from the home the two slain Golden Corral employees, Samual Flores Mendoza and his wife, Maria Saravia Mendoza?

You're not exempt from crime because of where you live and it's not always the one they think.
