Ask any sniper still living and he'll tell you he'd rather hide from the posse than take 'em all on at once....the best offense isthe bestdefense.

My Dad always taught me to walk soft and carry a big stick, much to that and the element of surprise wins fights quicker than brute force.

I'm all for being armed and completely prepared, but going looking for a fight is not a good idea if living is the priority.

If this about the issue of having a loaded gun in the house or not, you've already messed up pretty badif you are surprised to the point of needing one already loaded....

Fire prevention works much better than fire extinguishers for making things not burn...............
