billvon 3,079 #52 June 8, 2006 >Was he right in not shooting them? Probably. What the heck are you talking about? "Probably?" Some assholes wandered onto his property, he told em to leave, they did (after being assholes some more.) There is no possible spin where this is a bad outcome. Guns are great for self-defense when your life is threatened. They're not so great a way to deal with jerks hanging around the area you live. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was looking at the Kahr's a while back... yeah, the kel-tecs are good. quality used to be not up to snuff, but they have improved greatly. they feel a little cheap, but they do take abuse pretty well. i owned a Kahr K40 stainless and it was wonderful! excellent gun! light, very concealable, very accurate, very well made, very affordable. it now resides w/ the Westchester County Police Department.

They're not so great a way to deal with jerks hanging around the area you live. Some of the statements these "jerks" made would give a reasonable person good reason to hold their ground w/ weapons at ready. and they weren't just "hanging around" the area the poster lived in, they were trespassing.

Now they're currently after all the knives, even proposing mandatory 2-year prison sentences for anyone caught carrying a pocketknife. I'm sure they'll work their way down to cricket bats some day soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
