    Glad to hear you're still with the living. Could care less what happens to the scumbag.

    A perfect example of WHY the ridiculous cliché, "Just give them what they want and they'll leave you alone" is a potentially fatal mindset.

    Thanks for sharing, thanks for still being here. :yesway:

    Glad you pulled thru that is a fear I think about a lot as I carry with me almost everyday, however it would raise concern to bring it into work with me as I work at an office dealing with a lot of financial information and access to millions of dollars of clients money. I carry to work then lock it in my glove box but I know id doesn't take much to get into a glove box. Does anyone hve suggestions on bringing it up as an option to carry to my desk and lock it up? I don't want to raise concern or draw unwanted attention by brining up this topic. I would just feel much safer if I could get in here and lock it up.

    I can only hope that everything this scumbag owned now belongs to you in the form of restitution. On the outside chance that he is ever able to get out of prison, he still owes you every dime he is able to make. Glad you are still around. Clearly you had a guardian angel caring for you. Be well.

    That's an amazing story, i'm glad to hear that you survived. Like you said, this is something we all need to learn a lesson from and Im sorry that you had to pay the price for us to learn from it.

    Glad you are ok! I have small children so I lock my guns up regardless if I am not carrying it but it's easy to leave one sitting out somewhere if your situation permits it. Sucks that you had to go through this al but it's a great learning story. Thanks and God bless!

    Thanks

    Great story and a message heard loud and clear by me. I have in the past left guns around while at work, but no more. Appreciate you sharing!

    Glad you're with us and able to make us aware of this type of scenario. That's the main reason I started carrying. Our house was burglarized last year and a few of my guns were taken. I decided that I would never be unarmed when I arrive home, just in case.

    We all have to be open to change. I live way out in the country and never worried about break ins very much. Now we have a new alarm system that was installed last week from Vivint and I feel much safer being away.
