I think it's a shame people feel the need to kill people over $20. I don't think it's a shame people want to defend themselves against said people.

That's the kind of thing I don't really want to discuss. There is no specific threat. I'm just a single girl living by myself, and I can't weild a baseball bat like I used to.

http://www.smoothjazzy.com/ - see the "Programming" section for (freeware) JazzySiteMaps, a simple application to generate .Net and Google-style sitemaps!I was just wanting to offer the opinion that some sort of early warning might be more valuable than having the perfect weapon in a "general protection" situation which you now indicate. I don't know what type would be best for you but I mean like a dog or whatever. If you have 3 to 10 extra seconds to move then for home protection I would stick with a shotgun unless you have specific reason to believe you can hit a moving target with a hand gun. If you do consider a dog I would suggest a German Shepard since you live in Denver. Their long hair would be a good climate fit. Also if you train them as an attack dog they can provide you with extra time since the invader will have to deal with them first while you arm yourself. Also just having a dog will eliminate you from a criminals target list built if they case the neighborhood.

I think its a shame people feel the need to keep a gun to feel safe.

No more shameful than people feeling the need to live next to a cop, taking a martial art for self-defense reasons only, etc.

You're putting words in my mouth. I said its a shame, meaning its sad to think that she feels the need to do this. I did not mean to imply that doing so is shameful.

There is a big difference. A crimal can steal your gun and use it to kill someone, a child visiting your house may get access to that weapon with disasterous results, a pissed off lover can shove it up your arse and kill you etc etc etc

So can a baseball bat. To tell me which do you feel more strongly against keeping as a means of self-defense? Come on, be honest.

Bullshit. You are changing the meaning of what I said to imply that I was making a personal judgement about the original poster. This is not the case. I used the word shame, you quoted me and replied using the word shameful. I never said it was shameful.

There is a big difference between a baseball bat and a gun. Dont ask me to explain it cause its fucking obvious. My point is it is sad that people live in a society where they feel threatened to the point where they want to keep a gun in the house. I dont understand what that is like beacuse I have never been in a situation where I feel that way. Similarly I doubt you would understand my point of view. I've made my point and I dont have any more to say on the subject

Are you on crack or something? I mean really, where do you pull this stuff up from? You looking to argue? You said it's a shame blah blah blah... I said it's no more shameful than blah blah blah and now out the blue you claim that's me saying you said she's shameful for doing it. Really dude, you have to be looking to argue, I find it impossible to believe someone can have that bad of a comprehension problem.

No it doesn't. My point that I brought up is you're just biased against guns.

See what I mean. Nice way to substantiate it. Would you like me to send you a "I'm biased against guns and proud" t-shirt? :rolleyes:

It's just another means of self-defense. I'm sure your society has a few of them too.

Actually I take that back, I think I see where you got that from. But really, I'm telling you that's something you created because I never said they were shameful for it. I don't do subtle hints man, if I'm gonna say something it's usually blunt.

My point in entirely about feeling the need to be armed and not at all about the right to be armed. Regardless of your view on gun control I think anyone would agree that it is prefereable to not be in a situation where you feel the need to be armed in your own home.

You somehow I think I'm so short-sided in my world view when you suggest everything outside the US doesn't fall under the required scrutiny in regards to using guns as protection due to combating crime. And yet I need a grip when I obviously make a sarcastic comment to emphasize your fallacy?
