Ya, these aren't very good for home defense unless you are prepared to hightail it out of the house and leave it to the badguy. They aren't designed to really stop someone, only slow them down long enough that you can get away.

I will just use my paint ball gun next time I catch one of these SOB's lurking around the property. I have it set to 400 ft per seoond with stain balls. When they get hit its non leathal but will hurt like a son of a gun.

And you can just tell the authorities that the offender will be covered in green paint splotches. Even better if you can find some glow-in-the-dark varieties.

Good idea, I still have my old Nelspot 007 and some really old and hard grease based paint! I think you can freeze paintballs too. I'd like to mark some of my neighbors "customers" but would be a little scared of return fire or maybe they'd come over and wipe scabies on me.

toy guns are a real good way to get shot by people with real guns. including cops.

i sometimes carry a collapsable baton when walking through a bad neighborhood or when out on a long ride, but thats illegal as all heck too.

its a pretty ghetto thing to do, but broken glass on top your wall is a sure-fire way to keep most people out. if its clean, it almost looks artistic. of course, this requires you to have a large concrete wall. and at that rate, your looking at bars on the windows and such.

Once the bars go up, you are pretty much admitting that the neighborhood is unsalvageable. but sometimes thats how it is. everything on the ground level of my neighborhood has bars and security gates, the nicer places have guards.

Me, I just have a top floor window thats better than television.

Puke, most druggies have sold or hocked their guns a long long time ago. If they were real criminals, with guns, they would not be lurking around at 2am trying to steal gas out of a parked car knowning full well the owner does have guns and is more likely than not willing to use one of them in self defense.

No these guys are just low life trash who thing that they can get away with anything. The cops don't want to do anything about it because of the paper work and added work load. (A sad day indeed when a cop would rather sight some guy for not waring his seat belt, but won't go near a drug house.)

Yes weapons which are not weapons are best. They also are helpful in claiming that you didnt actually go out armed. Dont carry shurikens, however a bycycle sprocket throws real nice. Dont carry nunchucks but if you know how to use chucks then a dog-leash becomes nasty. And of course swords are a no-no but those camping saws can work just as well
