Now we know why ISIS banned teaching math.

I did no such thing as dismiss it. That was a very unfair and judgmental statement.

Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Wendy,

I must have misinterpreted your meaning and was a bit taken aback. I should have known better on two accounts, 1) it being Wendy, and 2) knowing that I do listen to both sides. There were a couple of other threads where I had just been descended upon and there was probably some residual feelings after that and for that I apologize.

Oh I took Turtle's approach, and figured you were being equally tongue in cheek

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

[BIGUN 1,053]

Again, I apologize.

Let's blame it on the internet.

Think its time for another SC break for awhile.

Is this gun my own gun, or is it some video game style question where i just found a gun on the floor?

can i take a knife instead?

[BIGUN 1,053]

The answer is kinda in the title of the thread.

Yeah, I think people have shown a distinct lack of imagination in this scenario when they're picturing the gun.

If you know there is a person who is going to be coming through a door, and you know this person is a bad guy, and you know when they are coming through (which is asking a lot) then just set an M134* on a swivel tripod aimed at the door as far back as you can with your family behind you.

Of course at that point, you could just "remove" the door ahead of time and leave.

* I would go with an M61 but technically that's a "cannon" and not a "gun" and I didn't know if that was allowed.

Claymore . . . 4.6 feet away from the door, wait for it to be fully open.

what MIGHT be left would probably still be aware that the bottom half left the building.

that's aggressive. What if its a false alarm and your dog walks through.

wait...dogs cant open doors. scratch that.

If you set up an M134 at the door, i can only imagine you are expecting robocops evil twin.

There are certainly one or two drawbacks I can think of to using a minigun for home defense, but I think they are mitigated pretty well in the hypothetical that was proposed.

Well, as Biden said, "You can use a shotgun" or something along those lines.

A claymore is just a single use shotgun.

Besides, if you look at the scenario . . . it works well.

I really don't want to be in an enclosed room when a claymore goes off, regardless of which way it is pointed.

All you really need in this scenario is a full sized axe, and three minutes of vigilance.

All I need is a mirror and a table.
Look in the mirror, and see what I saw. Take the saw, saw the table in half. Two halves make a whole, so w just climb out the hole.
