    Dog or Gun?

    I woke up at 1:30 am this morning because somebody was banging on my door and ringing the doorbell. By the time I go to the door, holding my RAMBO knife, the knocking stopped. I looked out the blinds and there was a pickup parked in front of my house.


    I started walking back to my living room and noticed that the motion detector lights were on in the backyard. I see two people walking back and forth trying to peek through the windows. Two high school aged kids, one black one white. I opened the blinds and flashed them the RAMBO, they took off running. By the time I got back to the front door, the truck was gone.


    I'm happy nothing serious happened. Back to the original question, should I wait for California to allow your boy to purchase a gun, or go to the animal shelter and pick up a pitbull mix?
    500 internet fights, that's the number I figured when I first joined igglephans. 500 internet fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate internet-tough guy. You need them for experience, to develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then...after...you realize that's what you are.

    Get a Fathead of your momma on the door.

    You'll only have drive-byes like that Orkin bug.

        One of the things I miss about my old block in S. Philadelphia... we looked out for each other. If we were going away we would let our neighbors know and they would be extra vigilant. I think it helped that we all owned our houses and had a vested stake in the area.

        I miss that camaraderie. Especially miss my A. A. next door neighbor who shares my birthday. Happy belated, Irene!

          P. S. I think I would go for the dog. After re-reading your description, it sounds more like a couple of kids doing something stupid than hardened criminals.

          Having a gun present could have escalated things a lot. A pit bull, not so much. Kelly Green would disagree with me here!

            I agree with the dog. It was young kids trying to do a smash and grab, but a dog seems to be the safer option especially with kids in the house.

              Why settle for one or the other?

                Totally, go for both! Until then a machete is a much better self defense weapon then a knife. Can buy one at the hardware store for 10-20 bucks, and if you showed those kids that machete, the wouldn't just run, they'd have shit their pants. Unless they are Latin...every Latin knows how to use a machete
