In Florida you can shoot robbers in the back as they are running away. One of 3? states. They better be packing some big guns to break into my place.

LOL....+1,000,000 on that one

Don't put too much faith in the dog. We have had a rash of burglaries in our neighborhood, and when the thieves found a dog, they tasered the poor thing and then helped themselves to the loot.
Oh, I don't put really any faith, in my dog...lol...hence why I keep a .45, next to my bed. But, I believe you have to a responsible home owner and more importantly, a responsible gun owner. You hear too many stories about people shooting their spouse or kids, by hearing someone in their house and blindly firing away. That's the main reason I have a light rail (built in flashlight) on my home defense pistol.
There are too many factors, when willingly keeping a gun in your house, to defend yourself. You have to worry about stray rounds, penetrating walls and injuring family members, etc...hence why I don't keep the standard shotgun, as home defense...and surely don't keep a rifle, as home defense.
I don't have kids or nosey guests, in my house, so I'm not saying I don't keep numerous guns, loaded, in my house because most of them are. In the event that the zombie apocolypse happens, I'll be prepared. lol
I guess if all else fails, I could always throw one of my Cobras, on a home intruder. lol I bet that'd make national headlines.

Thieves do more damage to the car which costs more to fix, than the stuff they take.
It is a very horrible thought that someone can just hack into a bank account.
No matter how much you try...there is no way to stop them. I am glad to hear you had protection ..the money at least will be back in the account in 10 days..much better than never.

I JUST took a concealed carry course 2 days ago and I think every one should take it! What you say is so true. He (our teacher) taught us to have a code, for example my hubby's name is Brian, so if I hear an intruder I yell out "is that you Butch?...Hey BUTCH is that you?". And when my kids are woken with the wrong name, they know my gun is out and they are getting under their beds.
I've had my van stolen and a couple of motorcycles, but nobody has ever broken into my house. I absolutely will kill them. I have zero sympathy. And when I go to the range, I am not shooting for fun or for sport, I am shooting to practice my grip, my posture, my draw, and my aim. So that it's hopefully second nature if I ever need it.
Theresa, I'm glad that your bank was so on top of things! You were very lucky, even if your stuck eating oodles of noodles and chicken legs for a while. I know your a good and selfless person so it sucks this happened.

i put good faith in my dog to protect the house. it's their job to protect the pack. he bit once, when he was 4 months old, in my defense. i trust him around babies, other dogs, anything. he's a pit bull, and he's the most loving dog you would ever meet. you could break into the house, and cassius would show you where the turntables are, he'd take you to the computer and all the electronics, he would show you where i keep $ stashed away and you could walk out with a new friend. the thing is, break a window and see a pit-bull, you're not going to go in the house no matter how friendly the dog looks b/c he's a pit. you're going next door for their loot. now raise a hand to me or my fiancee and it's curtains. the thing about a good ol dog is that you can't fire a gun when you're not home. my dog is my gun. theres actually a pretty decent song about it. i'll see if i can dig up the lyrics just to share.

i edited this to be family friendly. its a comparison b/w dogs and guns with some pretty good metaphor's IMO.
My dogs is my guns,
they attack any body that comes or any body that runs
if my glocks on safe that means my dogs on the leash
Twenty shells in the clip, each bullet's the teeth
keep my dogs starvin', they ain't ate in days
keep my guns loaded, they can't wait to spray
my glock is a Rot, my Four-Fifth is a Pit
my D.E. a bullmastiff, who wanna get bit?
when my guns spark that means I let 'em loose in the park
now let's see if your bite is as big as your bark
my Nine against your Nine to the death, have a dogfight
foamin' at the mouthpiece, run the streets all night
my dogs turn to razors up North
they don't wear collars, scratched the serial off
no owner, no dogtag, my dogs is illegal
they bite a hole in you so big you can see through
my dogs will even bark at this whole click
this a K-9, it eats it's own “poop”
they tried to put him to sleep, kids scared to pet 'em
I just say "sick 'em" and it pulls of and gets 'em
I got two dogs, one named dude, one named B****
B**** is the one with the pretty chrome clip
Dude’s the one with the taped up grip
I'll make 'em empty simultaneous 'till you get hit
stop fightin' in the streets, life is a struggle
put on a silencer, now they're wearin' a muzzle
I hate Puppies, little guns, I need power
you small time, a .22, you a chihuahua
teeth growin', bullets we never run out of
my dogs mate with new guns, I feed 'em gun powder
they ain't home trained, nor house broken
mouth open, droolin', that means the barrel is smokin'
I walk my dogs every night, prime-meridian
bust under water, they can swim, amphibian
turn 'em to a sawed-off, get their ears chopped off
my automatics a Pit with the locked jaw.
my dogs is my guns
i walk with em, talk with em, always in new york with em.
i never leave em, eat with em, sleep with em,
set em on the sink, man, take a leak with em.
