Why I never open my door.

[revjen45]

Stuff like this is why we need >10 rd. mag capacity.
I wonder how it would have gone if the 1st one had caught a blast of lead and hot smoke in his perplexed face.

Sorry. Wasn't trying to offend or be a smart bubblegum. You not responding to anything I say/write from here on out will be fine with me. Pal.

OK buddy.

I would like to solve the puzzle Alex....ghetto hoodrats from Houston for sure, BOLO 4 Bravo Mikes.

.......the "Robo calls" are driving me to the point of ripping it out.

LOL.....YEAH......that "National Do Not Call List".

I wonder.....
How many calls a day does the WH get?

You know.....
For a chance to not miss out on the opportunity to renew their car warranty?

Aloha, Mark

No-no...Now it's the Medicare call. Have YOU signed up yet? That's why they're calling you.

I'm glad I don't have the concerns you city dwellers have
no streetlights, dead end gravel roads, drainage ditches and barbed wire fences
since I moved out here, NEVER had a stranger walk down my gravel road up to my door
FedX, UPS and USPS, Amazon every now and then
contractors call before coming out

 

[GWS]

Meh
Its why I put heavy steel screen doors on all my home entrances and keep them locked
They aren't kicking those in and they aren't prying them open without serious tools and lots of time.
And if the racket they make trying to break in through those doors hasn't woke me up then I'm probably already dead.
And if I'm not dead, they may be soon.

raised him since he hatched out here - 16 years old now and mean as ever - they can live for 25 years

he lowers his head and charges at your legs, grabs you pants leg and pulls, 25 lbs of goose at your ankle will tip you over
THEN, the flock attacks when your down
I can walk through the flock but pity to any strangers they don't know

I just pin a note to the door, it simply reads, "Thanks for feeding the dogs"

100% of home invasions happen at home.

Although they are pretty rare, the above holds true...

5-6000 per year home invasions.

5-6000 per year home invasions.

...with 95% in about a dozen zip codes.

I've had to retreat from several geese myself. As people get all angry when you grab their goose and wring it's neck.

The geese at Boeing got obstreporous to the point that I seriously thought about punting the next one that charged me,

They really lose it if you start plucking it afterward.

Having grown up on a farm and being victimized by the damn beasts I give them no quarter and will punt, wring necks, use their carcass as club on their comrades, stab, shoot or whatever it takes. I'll hunt them just to blow them out of sky, I could care less about eating them. I f'n HATE geese.

 

[Knebel]

Wow. Why would he open the door? I live in a relatively sketchy area and only open the door for ups, fedex and people whos face I recognize. At night, the door stays shut and my firearm is next to me as I chill watching TV. My Kids also never open the door if they dont know the person. I know few teenagers here who I woud not put past doing something similar. (One of them I actually chased away with a bat before because they kept trying to vandalize my classic car).

Theoretically, Man if they kick in the door... id have no chance if i was in the livingroom. Also given being outnumbered there would be a slim chance to survive I guess. Now If i wasnt in the livingroom, thats a different story. I have a nice long hallway that looks right at the front door from the bedroom, where also the bathroom is. I could easily take all four on from that position if I had to.

It's funny when people say, "This is a nice neighborhood…"

Where else do you go to steal nice stuff?
