    Like this post and probably would enjoy attending a gun show but I do have an enormous respect for the responsibility of owning a firearm.

    Problem: After recently confronting a certain citizen in my upper middle class Labrador-owning neighborhood who should certainly know how to forbid his dog from urinating on my highly prized and expensive exotic hibiscus bushes, I was actually verbally and physically threatened.

    He was so rude and hostile when I objected to his pet destroying my $75,000 landscaped yard, I was afraid I might actually shoot him if I was armed.

    Perhaps it’s best in some instances to remain gun free, no?

      Best to always ask two questions before shooting someone:

      1. Would the world be better off without that person around?

      2. Would I be better off without that person around.

      Unless the answer to both is clearly “Yes,” don’t shoot.

      Example: some gang-banger is coming at you with a knife ’cause he wants your money for a new pair of cool shoes. Clearly the world is better off without him and unless you shoot you are going to be in a world of hurt, so you will be better off without that person around. Shoot. Just ask and answer those two questions quickly enough for the answers to matter.

      So, let’s examine *your* case.

      Clearly the world would be better off without someone willing to get rude and hostile to someone objecting to his dog peeing on bushes.

      On the other hand, given the hassle you would get defending yourself from the resulting criminal complaint, you would not be better off.

      Alternatives are indicated . . . does your community ban tasers or pepper spray?

        @Sea:
        Answer to #2 is obviously “yes,” but the ramifications of shooting a Lab-owner ain’t worth it. This is the frustration.

        However … I’m interested in the pepper spray. I could do that (not to the dog of course) but to the owner if you promise I wouldn’t go to jail. :)

        Ummmm, not sure this is such good advice.

        The percentage of humanity that exceed my admitted low bar for a positive response to #1 and #2 is around 90%.

      Carry a squirt gun with ammonia it it. Works on all species of curs.

    A personal choice for every citizen.

    I just found the juxtaposition a bit comical. No serious message intended.

    I do believe you should not have to be physically threatened on your own property without recourse to the protection of the law.

    I demand that you explain what in the h**l is so funny, mister! I take protecting my hard-earned assets most seriously.

      I was referring to the signage in the photo I posted. The combination of a Gun Show and a Casket sales had a morbid humor to me. Your comment which contained your story was a comment on my post.
      My comment was on the original comedy which you were taking a bit more seriously than my intent.

      If that is not clear, well, I have tried to amuse and one cannot win them all.

        Stop whining Mr. TKC; I only hassle people I like. The rest are not worth my energy. :)

    What a great service to add to the Hot Dog stand.

      Not sure even he can help your venture.
