17 years old! vs 55 yrs old, with a baseball bat. WTF !?!
It is really time to arm ourselves. This is scarry and just the prelude. These kind of thugs know they will pay a little price if they get caught and they don't care. It is worth the risk to get some cash for drugs or sneakers.

And PLEASE, I really don't care to read someone say....where are the parents? why wasn't he home? The parents in this segment of our society do not care and their kids are the way they are because of them.

I say that if found guilty, these thugs should not only be put away for as long as the law would allow but should also be beaten with bats on a regular basis so they know what kind of pain they caused. It may cure them of causing future pain, which I would call rehabilitation.

Arm yourselves now people!

This is seriously getting out of control. If anybody enters your home - you need to shoot first, ask questions later.

And I am appalled by Jokie Rell. After her numerous, boring press conferences and speeches - she has the audacity to veto the bill!!!

Why don't we cut back on all the worthless, lazy state employees who drag their butt and just add to an already overly bureaucratic system and put the money into something the government is SUPPOSED to do - keep us safe!

How about cutting off all the welfare and free hand-outs to people who are too lazy to work - and use the money to keep us safe!

Why don't we stop supporting a corporate/Zionist agenda of spreading democracy world wide, being a bully and starting wars - and use the money to SECURE OUR BORDERS and keep us safe in America.

Take a NRA Gun Safety class and get yourself a handgun to carry and/or shotgun for the home. There are over 100 available classes around the state.

Amen Brother.

Forget state government, loose courts and incompetant prosecutors.

Grab a copy of the second amendment. Read it, word for word, understand it, word for word, love it, word for word, vote to preserve it, word for word. Thank our smart founders for putting it there.

Even the dumbest home invading booger knows the sound of a lever action rifle cycling. When every sane, law abiding citizen can manhandle one and be quick, this crap will stop.

Police show up after the crime is committed. Prosecutors plea down the crime. Boogers go free.

The second amendment is your right as a proud American. Use it.

Justice begins at home, right before charity.

Keep and bear arms or wear chains.

Everybody owning a gun is not the answer. Theres other ways to protect yourself and you family, nowadays I think you have to. Too many wanna be gangstas running around, and home invasions are increasing dramatically.
This just means these punks are getting bolder and braver.

Get monitored home security,
heres a link with a good deal
http://www.homesecurityalarms.net

Maybe some self defense products
pepper spray , etc etc

Have your kids take self defense courses, tae kwon do ,, etc etc.

Just some suggestions.

The best system you can have is a huge dog or two, and a shotgun, when you break into a house at 3 am and here a 12 gage shell being chambered, you will run for your life, besides, they can lower my dog food bill......

I'm with you 100%. Screw these alarms and motion lights, this is WAR, those guys are so dam quick that they will be gone and at Target before the cops pull in your driveway. There is nothing better that the sound of the 12 gauge slide and click sound...in the dark.

Also, I had a friend who was afraid to own any kind of gun. She slept with an electric chainsaw next to her bed after a break in. Wonder how fast one of those gazelles would run if they heard that at 2:00 AM in the dark? heh heh heh

You're dreaming, Right?

What do you do when the alarm rings? Ask the booger to hand over his gun and have a seat while the officer finishes his doughnut?

I don't know about you, I'm in good shape but I'm not going to kick box a booger armed with a gun or knife.

Pepper spray? Taser? What do you do after the first 5 minutes, if you even hit him?

No way. Show him the barrel. Tell him to leave. If he does anything else, issue a toe tag.

Next!

Well said,Lucas McCain, I* believe you need more than a noisey horn at home, you need something that goes 1180 fps, that will take care of the problem.

What is tragic is that modern society has demonized the gun to the point of giving hard criminals the advantage.

At one time it was an honor for a father to teach his son(s) to shoot and care for a rifle responsibly, ultimately handing it down.
No more. Now honest people are trained by the media to be terrified of owning a firearm, especially with kids at home. To make it a secret only makes trouble. To make it a habit only makes freedom and security.

Criminals are dumb, but they are smart enough to know that most of society is easy prey going in, and the law is soft going out. Rell opitimizes this with all the soft, incompetent prosecutors, judges and liberal media.

Practice this look:

If this was the norm for law abiding citizens, gangsta's, rapists, murderers, serial killers, robbers, etc. would need a new honest way to make a living.

Brave humble men won our first flag. The second amendment ensures your bill of rights and your country.
Vote to protect it. Vote out passive anti-American government.

Keep, Bear and enjoy arms responsibly. Peace.

Bye. Did you forget that Saudi Arabia was a backwater before Roosevelt used tax money to develop their oil wells? They had no start-up capital.
