It`s every Americans right to bear arms. Do you think this law should be repealed or not?. (311)

Sad you took anything as an insult. Regardless of what Maddison said then, only the Left Loons here today and those who love tyranny want to change our constitution, which does not need changing (in my opinion).

Besides, not unlike most of us, Madison changed his mind on a lot of things throughout his life and career, mostly to suit his own interests.

All we need to change here now today is the great change-giver obama. Take him, please. He loves to bow and bend for royalty.

Your concept is good for dealing with not more than 2 of similar or lesser armament. The problem with small dogs is the very noise they utter is an advertisement of their small size. They are what the steel pipe or the baseball bat is for. What you have retrieved in those few seconds the dog's last seconds bought you is what will determine the outcome against the 3 or 4 now entering.

Frankly I prefer dogs that wound the person who killed them. This serves multiple functions. It leaves attacker's DNA behind. Sometimes the screams also bring attention and assistance. Also you are now dealing with at least one injured attacker and your odds have increased in your favor. I like my dogs big, smart and agile. For me this means Dobermans and German/Belgian Shepherds. The Rottweilers have the size and the heart, but to me they lack the agility. With multiple attackers the dog has to be able to duck and dodge too. One mix I have seen, which I would avoid as an intruder is a small noisy chihuahua backed up by a pair of Dobermans. They sleep until he barks.

I have (and I trained my wife to) always understood that when the dog alerts, he is doing his job. Your role is not to go see what the dogs are barking at or fighting with. They are giving you seconds you should not waste. Your job is to go retrieve somethings first. The cell phone with the 911 button is one of them. I personally like the sound of a shotgun or semi-auto bolt cycling. It lets everyone know the real threat has just joined the party. When I have used dogs in this fashion they are trained to stop when I call, if they can safely do so. I have no problem with the dog(s) finishing the task he/they is/are currently engaged in. The intruder should have thought of that before he scared or hurt the dogs. If I have said don't move, the message was very good advice. Those not already down will very soon be down if they move. The dogs will finish whatever their doing then stop. I know this. If the other intruders wish to join the person laying bloody on the floor I will have no problem with this. If they wish to remain frozen like statues, that is a wise decision.

Yes, over the decades I (and my father before me) have acquired (mostly for decorative purposes) swords and knives. I don't have a Gurkha Kukhri. Cold Steels Magnum Kukhri machete is more practical out here. I have Busse and Kabars, but those are not what I would choose to grab if my dog or dogs suddenly went berserk at 3 in the morning. Such is freedom of choice.

excuse me! you mean bigoted idiot

You are right. Our Supreme Court agreed with you and recently did exactly that. I am pleased to report that after a slow careful review they reaffirmed the right of the individual to keep and bear firearms.

Isnt that their job? Not all our police force are armed either, thankfully.

Curious, is the royal family in England still in charge of the Church of England and does the Church of England include Muslims?

I am sure police forces all over the world have to complete reports. Are you trying to make a point? You seem to think that Countries where people dont go around demanding to own weapons that kill are somehow inferior? I would strongly suggest that it is in fact the other way around.

They forgot the parasailing umbrella for the Swiss army gun.
