It is a good idea to not go somewhere with a gun if the only
reason you feel comfortable going there is because you have
the gun. Cops and soldiers have to go in harm's way.
Private persons do not. The gun is for the time the
predators and wild animals [there have been many people
killed and maimed in Kansas by dogs] come to you at the
market or when you're driving back to your home. A favorite
robbery tactic is to wait in the shadows near a garage door
and sneak in right behind your car. Your gun in the house
does you no good, the gun in your car does. Tip, put yard
lighting so it covers the areas around your garage so no
robber cam hide within 50 feet.

I leave that too Brandy. Brandy is our husky/shepherd mix. I really
don't depend on her for defense as she is way too nice, unless you are a
woodchuck. She really dislikes woodchucks for some reason. I depend on
her to point out the folks that I need to take care of.
