    Grandfather: "AR15 is unfair" during home invasion.



    You always strive to be respectable when someone has lost someone, but in some cases you just want to call them a moron.

    This about sums up my feelings:



    You know who says things are "unfair" in fights out of sanctioned sports rings? Beat up and dead people's relatives thats who.

    I felt like you took that out of context. I generally agree with what the Grandfather said, you don't need to kill an intruder. Whether it was deemed necessary by the home owner's son I can't know so it could have been justified.

    Dumb old man is dumb. If they came in armed with weapons then they were more than likely willing to use them if they encountered resistance from the home owner. The guy that shot them dead did nothing wrong.

    Brass knuckles can still kill or cripple for life, it would be unfair to bring a knuckle duster to a fist fight.

    I have found an excellent way to avoid getting shot for breaking into someone’s house.

    Other articles say 3 teenagers broke in wearing all black with masks and 2 were armed with brass knuckles and a knife. Just the fact they broke in is unnerving enough, but to also have weapons displayed while conducting criminal actions (they broke in), it's silly to ask/assume the homeowner would put himself at risk to avoid harm to themselves?

    It's not like the guy shot 3 kids in t-shirts and shorts with only backpacks on for the loot they were going to steal.

    Problem I have with an AR16 for "home defense" is the rounds tend to not stop at your property line once fired.
    It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning.

    Me, too. Is it the same way to not getting shot for breaking into someone's house? I think it could be. What's yours?

    Get no argument from me on AR-15 being the less optimal home defense firearm, unless maybe using purpose made frangible ammo.

    That's because you are human garbage. When the tables are turned and you are fending for your life maybe you will finally come to your senses.

    Unfair, bad choice who cares.

    Shocking. It's unfair to be better prepared to defend yourself than your attackers are to attack you.

    EDIT: I like that wraith, but won't that cause a lot of collateral damage to your house? Seems like a lot of rebuilding/painting to go through. but then again, I doubt anyone else would try breaking in afterwards.

    1. Disguise yourself as a nun
    2. Walk past the property a few times to see if anyone is there
    3. Do not break in
