Offer the robbers a glass of wine and a cracker.

I ask anti-gun types if they own a fire extinguisher, and explain the reasons to have a gun are almost exactly the same reason to have a gun.

Liberals are stupid. They are deficient in common sense on the most fundamental matters of life. And they turn around and blame people who do have common sense for their own short-sightedness and ineptitude.

I’ve always wondered what windchimes are for . . . I thought they serve no purpose whatsover. How was I to know that they are an important part of home self-defense?

That photo is chilling. No violent felon intent on robbery, murder, or mayhem would dare come near a house with cacti.

If your home were being invaded, what would you rather have handy: a spider cactus or a Smith & Wesson?

Neither. I'll take this Mossberg. If it's good enough to guard nuclear weapons, it's good enough for me.

LOL! Yeah, cactus is going to stop some criminal from breaking into your home. Recentkly the police caught a burglar here is Austin that was kicking in front doors to gain entry (in broad daylight). I guess he heard about the cactus trick and decided to use a more convenient portal.

Bad news for anyone that tries to invade my home while I’m there. All they will get is a one way, non-stop, all expenses paid ticket to the morgue- courtesy of S&W.

I call my 'safe room' the armory.

I was watching TV one night, heard a noise at my front door, looked thru the peephole to see some scumbag trying to pick my deadbolt. Got my shotgun, whipped the door open, aimed the shotgun at the guy and then laughed as the man’s eyes widened and he ran like a rabbit down the steps! Until police resopnse in my city is that quick, I’ll keep my weapons, thank you very much!

I don’t know, some of those cacti look like they would attract gay burglars.

For home protection, my main advice is (1) get a dog, and (2) have at least one firearm.

Criminals do not like dogs. They tend to avoid houses that look like they have them. And in a home-invasion scenario even a small dog will likely give you warning that something is happening, and give you at least a precious few seconds to get to your weapon

The single most dangerous--and the scariest--thing about Leftists is that they are delusional--they refuse to face reality and to be truthful. It is this fundamental mendacity that is the basis of the decadence that threatens to destroy Western Civilization where all the wars and plagues did not.

Those overwhelmed by this decadence tend to start with a premise--in this case, that guns are too dangerous to be used for self-defense--and to construct arguments and beliefs, often amounting to a delusional system--and LAWS-- around it, refusing to consider the possibility that their arguments, beliefs, and laws are based on a false premise. In this respect--as well as in others--they are very much like religious fundamentalists.

Because of their false premises, delusions, falty logic, commitment to groupthink, and refusal to face truth, these people lead many, including themselves, astray and make themselves vulnerable to the manipulations of self-serving politicians.

Unfortunately, many of them are determined to force their objectives and conclusions on everyone else, and this is what makes them so dangerous and so scary.

They are going to consider every possibility and do everything imaginable except the very thing that could lead to the solution of a problem--viz. face, accept, and articulate the truth.

If these people think that wind chimes and cactuses will protect good people from brutal, determined murderers, they are too nutty to be passing out advice. Unfortunately, millions of people--including themselves--lack the wit to comprehend this.

Do they keep the cacti locked up to ensure children don’t accidentally get pricked?

Is there a seven-day wait to purchase a cactus for home defense?
