So because someone can¡¯t protect their family every second of every day they should give up trying to protect them at all? 

Great logic.

You are so deluded.  Look up what happened in Cheshire Connecticut.  Two scumbags followed a mother and her 11 year old daughter home.  They broke in and over the course of 7 hours they took turns raping the women (including the 11 year old) and then murdered them.  Only the father survived.

Maybe you should tell the father that if he possessed a gun and the knowledge to use it properly that would have only made things worse for his family.  I mean after all, they were only raped and murdered.  It could have been much worse, right?

That should make him feel better.

And did you just refer to a man¡¯s penis and then make a ¡°¡° emoticon?   It¡¯s not difficult to ascertain what¡¯s on your mind.  Not that there¡¯s anything wrong with that.

If someone with a gun breaks into my house with the intention of harming me and my family how do you propose I stop him if I¡¯m unarmed? Sure I call the police, but what do I do while I¡¯m waiting the 5+ minutes for them to show up? 

Run around like a Benny Hill episode?

Beg for mercy from a violent criminal?

Should my family, the armed criminal, and I all play a board game while we wait for men with guns to rescue me and my family because I couldn¡¯t do it myself?

I¡¯m all ears.

I watched some of this.  I dont know if I saw a rerun or the new one.

Here are my thoughts as it pertains to a gambling discussion website.....

These people have a serious deficiency in calculating odds and should never gamble.  The one I saw had a guy who was afraid the yellowstone volcano was going to blow, and another guy who thought there was going to be an EMP - this guy blew his hand off with a gun shortly after proclaiming how guns were the best thing since sliced bread.

My problem with all of this is - these people seriously misinterpret the odds vs effort of what could happen.  It is closer to OCD than it is to "prepping" - these people have serious medical issues.  They spend hundreds of hours and countless dollars prepping for something specific that has a remote chance of happening - and even if it did happen - the chances of them being truly prepared for the random events to follow are infintesimal.

It was sad to see the kids of all of this.  Its almost child abuse. 

Like I said, these people should never gamble.

But why would you vote back in a President that has taken you a gazillion dollars into debt and virtually sold your country to the communist country of  China.  Just wondering.
