Yep, I sure have. My father always taught us how to use a gun properly. He would take us out for target practice so I do know how to use a gun.

Yes, we did. We put the kind that needs a key. But, when they broke in they apparently had been watching me and saw me leave. They entered via the backdoor which has a 3 small window panes. They broke the windows and were able to unlock the door. When we got home the garage door was left open. Since then all locks have been changed and we have a security alarm system throughout the house. The alarm is quite loud so it'll scare them....or me with a loaded gun...lol

I always lock my doors & never sleep with the windows open. It's sad, but there's always something on the news about a home invasion somewhere. It doesn't seem to matter what kind of neighborhood it is either.

Hey Pat,
That's pretty cool you're able to leave your doors unlocked at night like that.
Sounds like you live in a really safe area.
Consider yourself very lucky :)
