#1 Lest we fergit, come 2015 the Globalists + aligned desire for the US to be akin to a "borderless" country - DAT MEANS THAT WHATEVER YOUR BELIEFS, CRITICISMS, OR COMPLAINTS NOW ABOUT HOW US BORDERS ARE POROUS OR UN-PROTECTED, IT WILL BE MUCH M-U-C-H WORSE THEN.

Save Americans = Amerikans of the OWG mighty USSA = OWG Weak USRoA Global SSR MAY NOT HAVE THEIR GUNS TO PROTECT THEMSELVES ANYMORE.

What diffferentiates a US Citizen-Resident from a Foreign Worker or Illegal in borderless post-2015 OWG Amerika is one's personal RFID chip bio-implant, among other.

#3 'You're On Your Own'

I much prefer it that way.

#4 It's common sense, really. Good cops know very well that they almost will never get to your home in time to save you after you call 911. As the old saying goes, "when seconds count the police are just minutes away."

So I'm not surprised that the cops acknowledge this. I'm a fair bit disheartened to hear that their common sense stops at that point -- bleach? yelling?

If a social miscreant burgled a cop's house while the cop was home, how do you think the miscreant would be confronted -- bleach or a .38 special?

The answer to that question answers the issue.

#6 I thought the bleach was to clean up the carpet after the coroner and his new "toe tagged" buddy have left the building.
I better go back and review my security plans.

#7 Yes. Because I keep bleach an ammonia right there in my bedroom, unlocked so my kids can get into it.

I'm more likely to have a lighter and hairspray before heading to the cleaners cabinet...which is locked on account of my kids; those zip-tie ones I can barely get open on a good day.

And its not a shocking harvest, its the damn truth. I bet I could get from an outside door to the furthest reach of my house in less than 10 seconds. What's your PD's response time?

Capsu, I don't know if you want to bleach the carpet. Have some fun, what do they say on tv accessorize! Get an area rug colored like a mound of dirt.

They don't want to risk being shot by the homeowner when they arrive. Friendly fire, so to speak, is much more demoralizing than being shot by bad guys. Nonetheless, that oughtn't entitle them to disarm the good guys merely for their own peace of mind.

#9 Being shot by a responder would be a bad day as well. I have one of those safety vests and a very bright hat so that I can easily and definitively discribe to dispatch what the good guy looks like; just in case Rookie Officer Jittery and his side kick Billy B.A. show up.
