    In Belgium, we have the Idea, the Common Sense, and the Power of the Word.

    We also have the Fact that giving away your personal belongings can be a good thing, because using force is Bad and you have to wait for the Police.


    Seriously, I would impale a eurocrat without shedding a tear.

    And we can't believe someone actually thinks it's crazy to want to protect oneself.

    Are we to understand that you would not act to protect yourself or your property?

    Yes I would, but I have a deal of experience, and the last thing I would want is to have to explain to the authorities the reason there is a dead person in my house, I have had my house broken into and dealt with offender, but he was still able to walk to the Police car and no charges were brought against me, so why would anyone consider killing to protect anything, unless your it was to save your life, most things can be replaced, they are just not that important to either die for or go to jail for, if someone wants something that bad, let them have it, and I don`t mean blast away until your weapons empty, as no doubt that would be your interpretation of that phrase

    Why should I let them have something?

    I really want to have sex with your wife. And I mean, really really. Now can I?

    Do you have a wife or daughter? What will you do if the attacker(s) aren't looking for things or money? You hand them your wife/daughter and hope they don't hurt you? Good for you.

    Some one breaks into my home and they are more than likely between me and the kids. The intruders life is forfiet unless they can kill me before I kill them. No questions, no mercy, no hesitation. I have a 3yo and a 4yo separated from mommy and (step)daddy by someone who probably does not wish them well, and a very vulnerable wife left exposed if I hesitate and the intruder is a killer.

    Although I don't use a gun for that purpose, I use a dirk similar in size and purpose to a gladius and a pitbull.

    if a dead man is in your house it pretty much explains everything.

    what country do you live in?

    But, it's my stuff. And they are a direct threat to me as well. And because of my choice of potential reaction to that you think I'm some sort of wannabe?

    Personal protection aside, what about my enjoyment of dragging my boomsticks to the range and blowing holes in paper plates?

    Please post your exact location/address.

    I am in the mood to redecorate a couple rooms, and want to see what you have available. If you don't want trouble when I visit, prepare a tasty meal, and make sure you only play looting-appropriate music.
