Most people think they will always be safe and never have to worry about riots, looting or civil unrest. However, most people also figured that the US would always be solvent, as opposed to becoming the biggest debtor nation in the history of the world. With the greatest number of people ever now receiving government assistance, what will happen when the government can no longer cut those checks.Equally as bad, what will happen when the checks people receive lose their purchasing power due to hyperinflation? We are living in times unlike any other in history, where generations of Americans have grown up totally financially dependent upon the government, and the government is broke. History has taught us that when people lose hope, they take to the streets, and desperate people do desperate things.
I instantly replied a Shotgun is your best defense and my little wife launched into a ten minute dissertation as to why that was not her weapon of choice. Once she ended her little tirade I asked her if I could just state my case. I knew I didn't have much time so I said; "Honey" that always helps. I explained the Shotgun I am talking about is small only 26 inches long and it doesn't weigh much and the stellar point about this machine is you don't need bullets. She worries because of the children in the house and those who visit.
The first thing to do is to employ passive measures to make your house less of a target. Just as the overwhelming majority of home invasions happen through the front door, your front door communicates a lot to would-be looters. If your outer door is the kind with decorative steel instead of a large pane of glass, it looks much less inviting. So your first step of "house hardening" should be to look at replacing your front door. In addition, the installation of "The Door Club" is a $40 investment that will make your door nearly impossible to kick in, and it will take less than an hour to install. This way, when you are home and the door club is in place, anyone wanting to come in your front door will be stopped, or at the very least delayed greatly, even if they have a battering ram that the police use.
The next week I took her to the range with her small new pistol grip shotgun and we learned all about the machine I told her if you hear someone breaking in the house or a stranger comes to the door call 911 first then just go back to the bedroom and grab the tool off the hooks above the sliding doors in the closet put two blank rounds in the tube and simply ask the person trying to gain access to the house; Who is It? If the reply is not what you wanted to hear simply say I have a gun and I know how to use it. If they keep trying to come in rack the shotgun CLICK-SLAM at this point be prepared to fire the weapon aim it towards the ceiling and BAM they are very loud let one go. The blanks will do some damage to the ceiling but I can always fix that.
When the Police arrive put the weapon down before answering the door. Today she is comfortable keeping the shotgun loaded with bird shot high up in the closet on hooks the kids don't even know it's up there. For added security she had me install a simple gun lock that can be easily removed. She feels safe and frankly so do I, she evens looks forward to going to the range with me. Wonder if I can talk her into shooting my magnum.Naw! Home security companies advertise on TV day and night. You see their ads all the time. They are trying to get your business of course. The reason is because home burglary and home invasions are two of the fastest-growing crimes in the country.A home invasion is a version of a home burglary. Home burglary is usually done by one person who picks a house that he knows the occupants are gone. A home invasion is usually done by two or more people specifically done when they know the occupants are there.So in that sense it's a much more terrifying crime and it usually ends in some kind of violence, whereas in a burglary the bad guy is in and out hopefully without even anyone knowing about it.
Police statistics show that 90 percent or more of all all home burglaries can be prevented. Sixty percent of all home burglaries happen through unlocked doors and windows. And the shocking thing about home invasions is they almost always occur through the front door. Usually what happens is that someone rings the doorbell or knocks on a door and the home invaders given an inch barge right in.The most obvious way-the best defense-to prevent a home invasion is to use your peephole and see who is at your front door before you let them in. If you don't have a peephole. Then you should get one.There are many things that homeowners can do to improve their home security that are free or at no cost that will help prevent a home invasion. Here are the top eight tips.Start or join a 'neighborhood watch' they are free and very effective.Clear potential hiding places from lower level doors and windows.Post a sign in your front yard warning of a viscous guard dog.Eliminate darkened areas around your home with motion activated spotlights.
In an economy with a nearly 20% unemployment (Even the NY Times says take the "official numbers" and double them) the fact is that the uneducated, the unfeeling, the psychopathic by nature or just the desperate turn to crime to make ends (of their crack pipe) meet and you are the most likely target. Why? Because you are in some database that says you are not legally able to buy a weapon to defend your family, your children, your property or yourself. Or you are on some social site stating clearly and calmly that no way on earth will you allow a firearm in your home.
Some police officials state that because of the poor economy, more people are turning to burglary. Burglary is a low risk high reward enterprise. But there are some things that scare burglars away. That's why security gadgets and security devices are selling more than ever before. They are a cheap way to improve home defense. Here are four security gadgets to improve your home defense.A burglar who had committed over 70 burglaries successfully recently got caught and revealed some home protection tips to homeowners to prevent burglary. One of them was that if he saw a security camera on a house-even a fake one-he would definitely stay away!
Those same three or four years ago you would not be reading this book because the technology simply did not exist to make this book a real manual on home defense. Times and technology have changed. For the better in many ways.If you can't have (or choose not to have) a firearm what can you use to defend the people in your life without breaking any laws or spending years in martial arts training? The answer is amazingly simple and not as expensive as a trip to the emergency room.
The Video Patrol Camera is an outdoor, weather resistant spy camera that can take 26,000 still photos or 75 minutes of video. It uses an infrared sensor to record only when there is activity in front of it. It requires some light so if you have a spotlight outside that should be sufficient. It helps capture images of anyone who might be breaking into your house or vandals who would do damage to your car or property.It used to be that homeowners would hide a spare key underneath a doormat. There isn't a burglar alive who didn't know that trick. Now there are key safes that are in outdoor thermometers or in water sprinkler heads. So get creative and hide your spare key somewhere else.
