Watched a special on one of the gun channels this morning about home protection and all that stuff.
Iron grates on the Windows and fully loaded guns stashed all over the house. I've heard and seen that a lot. I've met guys who keep loaded guns all over the place. Behind every door, in the cabinet, under the bathroom sink. I'm always thinking, that's great but where's the one on your hip? Do these guys not home carry at all?
Some meth head is gonna wind up blasting somebody with their own hardware because they left a fully loaded shotgun by the door that just got kicked in. Makes no sense to me.
And the grates. What if your house catches fire? What if you're asleep and only wake up once the fire has already spread out of control, sealing off the doorways? It would've been nice to not have those Windows barricaded.
I know there's a difference between fear and awareness, but c'mon man.
I don't think I could live in a fortress. If I needed all that to feel safe where I was living, I think I'd just sell the extra guns and gear for gas money and get the hell outta dodge.
