Which house would a gunman pick?

Posted: Dec 15, 2012

Some neighbors on your street have signs on their doors: "No guns allowed in this house." A gunman enters your neighborhood to rob. Which house to you think he would pick to rob? The neighbors who have guns or the ones who don't? Anon;

Which neighbors? I've never seen that sign ever. - bootstraps

But I have seen the ones that say this house is equipped with an alarm system. I hear they are pretty effective.

Are you serious? Do you really think I am..sm - VTMT

going to put a big sign in front of my house that says "rob me, I don't have a gun"? Get real. Maybe a better sign would be, "Don't rob me, I have an assault rifle?" Let's ban this kind of weapon that has no purpose other than to cause massive human death.

Personally, I'd just wait until the owners left to rob a house. I figure it's easier than potentially getting shot, stabbed or beaten. Wait til they leave, empty the place out. You would be surprised how ineffective a gun is when no one's home to use it.

Of course, you could always just fill your yard with active land mines and stay home all the time clutching your machine gun in hand and waiting for the zombie apocalypse. Or you could get a handgun, lock it up and not let your children have it since America will never, ever ban handguns or hunting rifles. Ever.

Why the one with the guns, silly. - That is, if the

robber's name were Larry Gene Ashbrook, Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, Bryan Uyesugi, Seung-Hiu Cho, Colin Ferguson, Nidal Malik Hassan, Gian Luigi Ferri, Wade Michael Pate, George Hennard, Charles Carl Roberts, Patrick Purdy, Jacob Tyler Roberts, Omar Thornton, James Egan Holmes, Jared Lee Loughner....

Shall I go on, or do you get my drift?

Why would anyone post such a sign? Most normal - households don't allow guns in them anyway.

Wow, you're going to need to build a whole lot of hospitals or prisons to lock up all those "abnormal" people.

what are you talking about? - gag

No one is advocating locking up people with guns unless they kill people.

I'm the one who wrote a message below asking if teeth shift. I'm now at the point where I have no choice. Part of my filling fell out of the broken tooth and I'm starting to feel it, along with aching. On top of that I started panicking when I saw part of the filling fall out and was looking at all my teeth and notice I have another tooth on the other side that is broken. The main one I am concerned about is on the right top and the second broken is o ...

and stick to it. For months I read here how essential it was to pass health care reform, Obamacare was right, had to happen, because the uninsured do not receive medical care. Had to happen. Okay, in muted form, it passed. Then states sued because they feel it is unconstitutional for the federal government to require citizens to buy health insurance. The Obama admin defends the suit on this basis: When accidents or illnesses inevitably occur, the uninsured still re ...

Okay I just want some of your opinions please. My mother who lived next to me started dating a man on Valentines Day. Two weeks later they informed me they had went and got married. I had no idea they were going to do this. She had been seeing him 2 weeks for crying out loud. I was in shock but got on with it. A little background here: My mom's house was paid for outright when it was built about 6 years ago and has never had a note. The house is worth 250,000 or was appraised for th ...

my husband's BFF of more than 30 years came on to me... I was furious and told him off. He actually had the audacity to argue with me that "I flirted" and made the comment that when my husband's ex flirted and he came on to her, she went for it. Whatever, that was eons and eons ago and ex's are ex's for reasons such as that, right? I of course told my husband the whole thing and guess what he's most upset about?!?!? That his supp ...

She left for vacation today, will be gone a week. I kidded her yesterday and told her what I was getting her for Christmas was a good thorough house clea ...

We were lumped in a group with the housekeepers and the nurses. Union membership was mandatory for employment and dues were taken directly out of our paychecks. Our local reps said they could only negotiate for 1 group a year out of our 3 departments, but every time our turn came around the nurses weren't happy and the union would negotiate for them again. Of course this was 10 years ago, but we made from $8.10 per hour to a max of $12.39 per hour, but we did only have to pay $50 a ...
