[QUOTE="radiant_shooter, post: 715546, member: 7018"] After reading this thread yesterday it really got me thinking so I started doing some research on the internet for "tactical planning for a home invasion" and other similar things. I found many good articles on precautions to take like alarm system, advertising that you have an alarm with stickers and a sign, a plan for the family in the event that someone does break in, good solid doors with dead bolts for bedrooms, etc... So when I got home I told my wife that we needed to plan out a tactical scenario if something like that was to happen. She laughed at me and then got into a discussion that I am paranoid. It drives me nuts when she does that. She doesn't take it seriously. I may be paranoid, but I would rather have a plan and have practiced that plan when the situation arises. She may not realize it, but I'm not so much worried about my own safety, but the safety of my family. I take on full responsibility for them and need to have a plan in place that can guarantee (or at least put the odds in our favor) that they will be safe in a home invasion. I wish she would come with me to some of the advanced pistol training classes at H&H so she can feel prepared when she is home alone. She has a gun, but thinks it would be useless in an attack. She told me yesterday she thinks I would be too freaked out and fumbly (is that a word) to get my gun out and put the magazine in it and be able to successfully fire at an intruder if someone broke into our home in the middle of the night. She said I would probably drop the gun and lose it in the dark. [/QUOTE]
