Is that your big concern out in NV? That your neighbors are crack heads and will break into your place? Back east we live in the Big City, where there really are crack heads. And the only trouble we ever hear about is a troubled teenager who decides one day he'll wipe out a dozen or two people in a nearby school.

But I hear you. Cops shooting a black guy ordinarily unload their entire clip into him. And their aim is terrible. How many times have you read the story where the officers fired 22 rounds at the perp and only managed to hit him eight times? I am not at all surprised to hear you admit you need a 30-round clip for home defense. :)

I used to live deep in the ghetto, down by the projects. And that was serious drug territory. So one night I wake up to the sounds of someone trying to break in. I had to go downstairs, stand on the other side of the door and say "You need to stop doing that." He went away.

In the city if word gets out you have a gun, they break in and steal it while you're at work. Guns are worth money.
