WOW! I really wish I took pictures of this!!!

[Rob]

We took 50 glow sticks and emptied them into an empty 1-gallon milk jug. We then strung it up to a tree so it hung at about eye-level.

Then I shot it with a Desert Eagle .50 and it just shattered all over the place!!! Holy shit, that was pretty extreme! If you look at the tree and the grass you can only imagine what it would look like if that were someone's head. The incandescent glow is kinda erie.

You know how they refer to them as "hand cannons"? Well the name suits it pretty well.

i've been considering getting one, just because of the caliber. but i know it wouldn't be feasible as a carry piece.

Maybe Shaq can get away with carrying it but the average sized person would have trouble just trying to store it on their person. I use mine for home and family protection.

If you break into my house then you'd better catch me when I'm sleeping. And I have 2 dogs that are barkers so good luck.

Depending which jurisdiction you are in, blasting burglars that are past the threshold of your house means no charges. Generally the rule is EAST of the Mississippi--duty to retreat... can't blast people breaking into your house. West of the Mississippi--no duty to retreat... once they cross the threshold... it's time to go bye bye

Good move on turning back. Some states West of the Mississippi allows homeowners/residents to blast burglars that are entering... if they turn back, some states (maybe most that have a no duty to retreat jurisprudence) forbid you to tag them from the back.

I actually think my pistol grip Mossburg riot shotgun is a bit more intimidating. All it takes is the sound of that round getting chambered and anyone with half a brain would haul ass!

I love that sound.

What are the statistics on people who own a gun and keep it in the house.

A) Shooting an intruder?
B) Using it to defend themselves against an intruder?
C) Having the intruder use it against the owner?
D) Having a member of the family use it on themselves, another member of the family or friends intentionally.
E) Having a member of the family use it on themselves, another member of the family or friends accidently.
F) The cost of defending yourself from being sued by the intruder who got shot or his family?

Seems to me a burglar alarm is cheaper, protection when you're out of the house and probably a lot better at protecting you, your house and your family.

But it does not give you a bigger dick and a big gun does that.

So you don't know the figures or scared to show them?

Is buying a gun making your family safer or putting it in more danger than getting a burglar alarm or a dog?

[Paul Markham]

This is the truth.

It is accurate to say that the majority of the population feels 'unsafe,' this may be attributable to this nation's media perspectives. Generally gun owners would disagree that the public world is actually a pretty safe place. That's why they are gun owners, they have insecurity, fear, an amount of paranoia that initiates a perfectly normal, and American, reaction that is - private gun ownership. Truth is violent attack from a stranger is still highly unlikely (odds might be in better favor for winning the lottery). Chances of being a victim of homicide, (more than likely the attacker will know the victim, and there is a gun kept near by, and that gun is a handgun) is still more than 112,000 to 1 in the United States. And contrary to the fears, paranoia's, and stereotypes of Americans, the great majority of us are not walking around with guns, we don't have to, we don't want to, yet.

You are more likely to be attacked, attack, kill or maim someone close to you than a strager. So having a gun in the house just lifts the danger level.

The Centers for Disease Control now recognizes gunshot wounds as a health epidemic in this country. (CDC Firearms Facts) For good reason; in just two and half decades of peace-time in America, more children have died from gunshot wounds than all of the American deaths from the Vietnam war. Where is the memorial wall for these kids?

So having a gun at home protects your family?

If they shoot themselves then it's natural selection. They were idiots in the first place.

[Paul Markham]

Last year (1994) our nation become the first in the world to experience more deaths from gunshot wounds than from motor vehicle accidents. This is a disturbing analogy. Disturbing because driving aged Americans own 2.3 motor vehicles per person - allot more cars than guns. Those drivers use their cars daily, an average of 1.7 times, peacefully, productively, for years -- some never experience so much as an accident in their entire lives. Whereas if every gun owning American backed down his drive-way on foot, holding his gun out in front of him, made a right turn at the end of the block, and headed into town -- we'd all be dead or have been wounded by now.

Must be all those criminals getting shot by home owners.

If they shoot themselves then it's natural selection. They were idiots in the first place.

What if the idiot shoots someone else, like his brother, classmate or you?

[Paul Markham]

Protect your children, get rid of that gun.

In 2000, more than nine young people aged 19 and under were killed a day in gun homicides, suicides and unintentional shootings in the United States[1]. Many more were wounded. The scourge of gun violence frequently attacks the most helpless members of our society - our children. Consider these facts... 9 children a day.

In 2000, 1,776 children and teenagers were murdered with guns, 1,007 committed suicide with guns, and 193 died in unintentional shootings. A total of 3,042 young people were killed by firearms in the U.S., one every three hours.[2]

Each year from 1993 to 1997, gun murders were committed by 1,621 killers under the age of 18.[3]

In 2000, 80% of murder victims aged 13 to 19 years old were killed with a firearm.[4]

During 2000, 62% of all murders of those under age 18 in the U.S. involved firearms. In 1986, guns were involved in 38% of such offenses.[5]

Firearms are the second-leading cause of death (after motor vehicle accidents) for young people 19 and under in the U.S.[6]

The rate of firearm death of under 14-years-old is nearly 12 times higher in the U.S. than in 25 other industrialized countries combined.[7]

For every child killed by a gun, four are wounded.[8]

From 1990 to 1998, firearms were responsible for 21% of deaths for Caucasian teens ages 13-19 in the United States, 64% of deaths for African-American teens, 46% of Hispanic teens, 24% of Native American/Alaska Native teens, and 35% of Asian/Pacific Islander teens.[9]

In a study of inner-city 7-year-olds and their exposure to violence, 75% of them reported hearing gun shots.[10]

"The firearm injury epidemic, due largely to handgun injuries, is 10 times larger than the polio epidemic of the first half of this century."[11]

Guns are protecting your family from criminals. Who protects your family from themselves?

[Paul Markham]

A gun kept in the home is 22 times more likely to be used in an unintentional shooting (4 times), a criminal assault or homicide (7 times), or an attempted or completed suicide (11 times) than to be used to injure or kill in self-defense.[2]

So you are 22 times times more likely to shoot yourself, be shot yourself, have a member of your family shoot someone or use the gun in a crime. Than you are to shoot an intruder.

I'm waiting for one of you guys to show me how safe you actually are with a gun in the house.

Come on guys don't give in so easily.

After all you're the guys who are going to protect your family with all your guns and yet seem to be whimping out at a board argument.
