    Do you?

    Who is "you" in "you want to", referencing an AR -15 and a crawl space?

    I'll take bleeding eardrums over a bleeding chest wound any day... But again, you are so sage in your advice for 'crawl space' ONLY situations... Perhaps U could enlighten us, out of your apparently infinite experience, on say - your weapon of choice for one hanging upside down, submerged underwater, with one hand tied behind one's back?

    Jake, I don’t know the whole story about the crawl space, but let me make these assumptions:

    1. If you’re hiding in a crawl space it’s because you believe someone is after yiu.

    2. If you believe someone is after you, you take whatever gun you can get your hands on.

    3. If you’re hiding in a crawl space, I also going to assume there is only one point of entry to enter that same crawl space.

    4. If there is only one point of entry and you have a rifle, you’re not really in a gun fight because you’re essentially a sniper at that point and the guy who’s after you is toast.

    But if I had to enter a crawl space looking to flush someone out, then I would agree a rifle isn’t the weapon I would choose.

    You have not been in such situations, Sahba. Talk to the combat vets and police personnel that have had to engage in gun fights in restricted places. You are, of course, entitled to your opinion.

    The leader of your party... on video.



    He tried to cloud the subject, but he was supporting what Heller destroyed. We have heard Swallwell, O'Rourke, Feinstein, and many Democratic Party leaders. We know what you Leftists will do if in control. Just look at California, which would be much worse if the Democrats ran the Federal courts. We know who you are. Democratcs/Leftists will take guns. They are tyrants when given power. (See IRS Weaponized / DOJ Weaponized)

    That was before, HB Surfer. You know that, so don't try it. You will never get away with such alt facts.

    That Democrats will confiscate all guns is a lie.

    Period.

    Before? That is very recent history. The leader of the Democratic Party was 100% alright with not allowing Americans to own handguns in their own homes.

    Now if we just listen to quotes by: Feinstein, Swalwell, O'Rourke, Harris, etc. We all know what Leftist/Democrats would attempt if in power. It could lead to disastrous American bloodshed.

    Damn right, because Americans possess them. That was a primary goal of the 2nd Amendment. But, they would actually try to not allow Americans to have guns. See Chicago and D.C.

    Jake, first it was democrats won’t confiscate our guns, now it’s democrats won’t confiscate all of our guns. Do you see how the narrative has morphed?

    Thank you for the personal insight.

    Why is their request required even a motive, shouldn't they simply have a legitamit claim to the facts explained to them. Seems pretty straight forward to me.

    Steve, before you pass judgement, let everyone speak; who is attributed to the incident. Too often, racial overtones goad your threads.

    Kind of disjointed post. How you are using this as an argument for "tyranny protection" .
    This incident has no relevance to government tyranny. Seems like you just kind of tacked that statement on there.

    Ok. Whatever. If the US government wants to declare war on its own citizens I doubt you'd really have the upper hand regardless of whatever weapons you currently own.

    It would never come to conflict. The last thing our gubmint want s is civil unrest, they would surrender at the first sign of uprising..

    We Americans have a very effective weapon about this eventuality. It's known as the election process. I keep a .32 cal auto around to protect against gun nuts, drunks, and druggies. My motto: don't aim for the center of mass, put a double tap in the brain bucket.

    Having read your many other posts on various topics, I can no longer take you seriously. I am beginning to think you must be a masochist to even post here.

    Actually I’ve done quite a bit of shooting indoors in an abandoned house. I’ve shot handguns and rifles in confined spaces, including from vehicles and in crawl spaces under barns. I can verify that shooting a handgun in an 8 inch aluminum pipe is not good for your ears. :)

    You are correct on one thing. I’ve never been in a sewer fight. Have you? That sounds interesting.

    Unless a handgun has good tritium night sights and the shooter has a lot of experience in low light shooting with them, a red dot on an AR is far superior.

    What gets people killed or hurt is a weapon they are not comfortable or proficient with. For some people a handgun would be great in this scenario. For others an AR would be superior.

    For what it’s worth, for people who are providing their own security indoors, suppressors are something to consider. It’s a pain in the arse to get one but if you ever had to defend yourself in a confined place it could save your hearing and that of your kids in the OP scenario.

    I believe they have a absolute right to the facts. But that question about why the other family was outside so early almost seems like an attempt to put some blame on them. Do you see it dIfferently? And I will say it’s possible that I might ask the same question if we were talking about my son, because in my mind I’d be saying if this didn’t happen and that didn’t happen my kid might still be alive. It’s a shitty situation for both families. I can’t imagine killing two of my neighbors kids or having two of my kids killed by my neighbor. This story is horrific, just friggin awful.
