The combat engineer in me would want to get out the rolls of concertina.
I saw a guy trolling my neighborhood the other day too so it's everywhere.
I wish you were the captain of our neighborhood watch.

But then we have tents and trashed out trailers and mini vans surrounded by garbage, with people living in them in this hood too.
I have started carrying around "disposable " improvised impact devices in the vehicles. I usually don't bother with such low rent stuff, but I honestly don't feel like reporting any possible contact with dirt bags right now. If I have to piece up some bum in a parking lot, my tools are going in the storm drain and I'm driving out . They can track me down and interview me later if anybody cares.
Part of getting each of my kids moved out has been field expedient weapons creation and, most importantly, the will to commit to using them.
All manner of flails, bludgeons and other human hurting devices laid out on a big folding table. I just saw my daughter today and refreshed her supplies, and updated the information above. She has a short walk through some tweaker tent city on the way to work. So I told her to just go apesh!t if anything ever jumps off.
Would've got her started on concealed carry process, but I gotta be honest. She's not there yet.
Judge any of the above however you wish. My reality, my family.
I don't even have a doorbell. by the time someone gets on my front walk, my dogs are going off like crazed banshees wanting to tear someone a new one. so far every one has turned and scurried off. I really love my dogs. Haven't had to deal with unwanted visitors for years.
Nobody here would ever use a drop gun.HIPOINT ?
A LOT of people walking down the street in front of my house, in this hood, look like the guy described by @ilikegunspdx . But then we have tents and trashed out trailers and mini vans surrounded by garbage, with people living in them in this hood too.
Maybe he was just looking for a private place to take a dump?
Good question and certainly could not help your case if the dog bites and some court finds it was "not necessary" for sure. I have nothing against large dogs, always enjoyed them. Just took to small ones a good while back as they are far easier to care for now. Had never really thought about the funny signs for dogs but, it does make sense it could be a problem if the owner ends up fighting a legal battle over the dog for sure.1) "Only a few pounds each but GREAT alarms if someone tries poking around."
Then you have a dog alarm that won't get you sued for mauling a toddler. I would rather not have a dog making decisions that could affect the rest of my life.
2) I'm not a lawyer nor do I play one on TV, but isn't posting signage about how nasty your dogs are evidence that you know they're dangerous?
LOL, mine sure did one time. We were living together in a two story house. I come home 2am, power on entire street is dead, Dad was at work. I go down to basement, looking for lights and such. Hear front door open, foot steps across floor above me. when the foot steps got to the stair way down and opened that door I racked a round. Dad immediately called out that it was him. Power was out at work, he had come home to grab a couple lights and batteries. We had a good laugh about it laterDad Says Everybody jumps to the sound of a Shotgun.
He's 87
Yep! I am a BIG time lover of dogs but the way morons have screwed up the breed called Pit bull now days. These used to be great family dogs. Now every time I see one I go on full alert watching to see what if anything it will do. When some moron has one they allow to get free and they kill some kid I have long felt the owner should be treated the same as if they had left a loaded gun laying there in the yard and it got someone. So often this happens and owners act like it was just a sad accident they had noting to do with"My daughter has a scar on her face from where a little foo foo dog bit her. In my experience they can be just as likely to cause you to get sued as a large dog."
Agreed. However, I'm betting things could have been worse if the dog had been a Mastiff or a Rottie, which might have entailed criminal charges.
