Gregg, my brother-in-law was on the couch when my sister arrived home, so he helped her and my niece’s boyfriend with groceries.
A car blocked them in at the end of the driveway. Three people got out, one fired a gun in the air and threatened him. Two watched him while the third searched the house; after leaving, they returned, again, to search the basement. He finally grabbed his gun as they drove off. Since I live nearby and police response is slow, we now believe it’s safer to keep a gun within reach. I even carry when grilling—times have changed and being prepared matters.
Kielma’s Thought: “A gun holstered properly, and always on your hip, is better than a gun 5 feet away.”
