People often critisize me for having swords on the house. "What does a 59 year old woman need with a sword?" Believe me, it has saved me from many a troubling incident. In my section 8 apartment, drunks will just walk in, intruders are not unknown and I once found a man in his underwear in my living room! With a gun, it is too easy to pull the trigger. A drawn sword intimidates more and if needed will do bodily damage that will mark the intruder. I feel much safer having them at hand.

By the names of the intruders, sounds like illegals.

Tamara,
The name calling by victor is uncalled for, but I hope that you see that your statement is touched with bias against a group of people. There are many fine upstanding people with like-sounding name, just as with any ethnic group.
