Re: Carry while at home
I agree, absolutely! You said it a whole lot better than I can. I don't know of any place that is safe in this day and time. We must be prepared and situational aware of our surroundings at all times. The minute you let up....that is when everything will be turned up side down. Most people on this forum carry 24/7 and that is good advise.bubba1876 wrote:If an intruder turns and runs from my home..... I consider myself and the intruder lucky!
As for the scenario where the intruder may run next door to rob someone after he's looked down the barrel of my 12g or Glock, I doubt he's thinking "Well, let's just try next door".... bull he's hauling ass outta there!
My rule is, if he's running away, that's a good thing. Take your finger off the trigger, survey your surroundings, and call 911.
As for carrying at home, yes what happens to your next door neighbor can definitely happen to you. No matter what part of town you live in.
I carry, or have a firearm within reach, until I get in bed. And then it's till within reach.

Re: Carry while at home
Today home invasion has become the crime of choice around here, therefore, I carry all day every day no matter where I am at. I would not shoot if an intruder turned to run after breaking open the door and seeing me armed and yelling to stop. I would definitely call 911 and watch him to see where he is heading. I believe when he turns and runs, the threat is over.
