My immediate neighbors are just like me I find a lot of comfort knowing that we'll band together no matter what!
Hang a bunch of fake claymore mines around the exterior assuming these goons can read they might not mess with coming too close! Set
off a tannerite surprise outside to enhance the claymore effect in their head.
I don't have any dogs but have several beware of dogs signs outside and several motion detection barking dog alarms inside that sound like
pissed off German Shepards. Detection is outside and it works well. They mess around too close I have other means to take care of the threat!
Hang a bunch of Slippy pikes outside!

Yeah, I know it's macho to grab for a firearm, but this is still a nation of laws. If a mob is on your property, call the law, that's what we pay taxes for.

Ever heard of the Castle Doctrine? I think that might be a law.

Not every state has it. Some are 'Duty to Retreat'.

Florida several years ago expanded castle doctrine from your own property, to anywhere you are legally permitted to carry a firearm.
Such as the ATM in town.
The liberals immediately labeled it the "stand your ground law" and predicted there would be blood running in the streets. They were wrong, as usual.

They cried the same thing when my state went to 'shall issue'. Prior to that the local constabulary had final say over acquire and carry permits. So if the sheriff didn't like you because you dumped his cousin in high school 40 years ago, you didn't get a permit. Now, as long as you meet all the legal hurdles, the permit must be issued.
Personally, I don't want to shoot another human being. I don't want to hurt anyone else. I don't care who they are.
There are two types of people who look forward to shooting another man. Those who have never done it and don't understand the aftermath, and those who have done it before and look forward to the next opportunity. Either way, they bother me.

Same here. Shooting folks generates way too much paperwork..legal expenses...a need to have a pre planned bug out location in case the alleged perp aint a straight white adult male Christian etc. The Black Panthers still have a dead or alive reward out for poor old Officer Wilson up in Missouri. Hope he took my good advice and moved to Nocona, TX.

I would fix myself a Peanut butter and ketchup sandwich, drink two beers and a glass of milk. Then I would walk up to the leader and throw up all over him/her

Florida was the first state with Shall Issue, thanks to Marion Hammer of the NRA, back in 1989.
Castle Doctrine was gradually changed from your house itself, to your property outside your house, and finally everywhere you are legally allowed to carry. No "duty to retreat."
The NRA got all that for us, that's why I support them.

Amen!
In the 1980's I struggled my part in the war and did a personal Bible search to see what God had to say about killing and warfare.
That, plus time, plus some counselling, enabled me to find peace.
That said, I know also that God is OK with self defense, and I will defend myself and my family, if it comes to that.

If they were trespassing and appeared to be violent, I'd have my wife call the police and say she was fearful for her life, I'd either let the dogs loose or I'd introduce them to the devastation a Mossberg 590M loaded with twenty rounds of #4 buck can wreak on a group of people.

Pretty much my stance really, all kidding aside. The police will deal with em in the street, if it's me and mine, then that's another matter. Their right to protest ends at my yard and I will insure they know the price that will be paid should they make the mistake of trespass.

A guy I used to work with managed to take a knife away from a crazy guy by blasting him with a dry powder fire extinguisher. Very effecrtive tool.
