AAAANNNNDDDD speaking of stupid, with apologies to Timco and others, would you also burn and bleach the bodies when self-defending and emptying your clip?

Goose Creek resident who shot, burned, buried men granted bail - Charleston Scene

This case is intriguing. I mean, I can't imagine what the cost of the cab fare was. Yeah, yeah, I get that we don't know if this guy had a permit, so please disregard this thread since we all about the validity up in hereeeeeeee!

First, it's a mag. Pistols use a magazine. We've been over this.

Second, I may need a second shot, but I'm certain the first shot will be on target. No need to dump the mag.

Third, you can find as many crazy stories on the web as you want to find. Doesn't make me any less responsible. Heck, I saw a show last night about a Russian prisoner that killed, cooked and ate his buddy, then gave some of the meat to his friends. I don't think he even owned a gun....

Yes, I know that - hence I said "with apologies to Timco and others" - I was doing my best to speak to the post and use like language as Petey... so he would understand (and possibly reply as this thread has been entertaining, especially so now that particlewave seems to have gone full potato and left...?). Had this been a movie, or I really put effort into my post, I would have given you the Rickey Bobby, "With all due respect..."

Although, this does raise an interesting question and, with all due respect:

You (and others) seem to feel fine with C&C and carrying in the car... ok. Can't say I'm really bothered by what you and others do. Hasn't impacted my life in any way, and I hope that my life will continue to be conflict free. Yet, didn't we see a post or thread some time ago about you not locking your door to the house? Getting confronted by someone or something during the wee hours of the morn? Having this been, not the first time...? I guess, I'm just confused. You (others) feel you need a gun with you, fine. But, you don't feel obligated to lock your house? That I don't get. I mean, if it is purely a security thing... with the gun toting... why isn't the door locked? Do the other carrying members feel the same way? Do they not lock their house? Is this something that's forgotten, or somehow less important than being out in the wild and possible piece-less?

Sure, maybe you forgot (this one time) and my recall may not be 100%, but were I to feel certain that my life is better when carrying, I would think I would make damn sure my house was also locked every night (yah never know when the "Elders" or "sisters" may come a-knockin' with their backpacks and bicycles... and convert yah with their promises of your own planet in the afterlife Or worse yet, the "solar" dealers or exterminators... I'll be honest, I can't count how many times I'm getting knocks on the door by people claiming they did the lawn care for this house for the previous owner. Guy had a payroll of 14 different companies if I believe what they tell me!). Alarmed, too. Hell, I can't count (yes, I like to count) the times I've circled back around to make sure the garage was closed and it didn't "pop" up for some electrical reason. That may be me, though. What do the other pro-carriers think? Am I the only one that is confused by this math?

You left your door unlocked which makes it your fault that poor underprivileged man with a rough upbringing was forced to enter your house. You should be ashamed of yourself for abusing people like that. I'd say you owe that man, everyone on this forum, and the greater metropolitan SLC area an apology.

Everyone has their own way of living but if my Daughter is home, my house is locked. If I'm gone or alone, often unlocked. Not much of a burglary problem here and everything is insured. If a friend may need something it doesn't bother me to leave it open. (Although, to be honest, I lock the keys to my Porsche in one of the safes. I trust my friends with my house, tools, etc. but not so much with my car...)
The gun, I wear all the time. If you carry a gun it needs to be very natural/normal and familiar. I don't believe I'll ever have to produce it in public but I would never bet my life or my Daughters life on that.
