Exactly. The best way to stop bullets is to knock first. Anybody who kicks in my door will meet the same fate.
Reminds me of an incident in Oklahoma years ago. a rural farmer one night was cleaning his rifle. Upon finishing cleaning it he loaded it.
At that moment two men kicked in his door. It did not go well for the kickers as funerals were held the next few days.
Like my grandfather, I keep a loaded gun within reach.
Anyone who kicks in my door at 1 AM and gets past my dogs is going to get a bullet to the brain.
Mebbe we need a regulation on guns in apt bldgs. I am all for everyone being armed and shooting anyone forcing an entry.
But, if you miss your neighbor is the next target. How about mandating that all such guns use frangible bullets — like air marshals use? Simple ceramics would work. Don’t need exotic metals.
