Bad Dogs Bad Neighbor

Then you get fined for shooting from a public roadway. Keeps people from hunting from roads.

There are places where road hunting is legal.

Yes, I imagine the last place it is legal is New York, where he is.

If a dog (or person) gets aggressive enough for me to shoot it, the last thing I’m going to worry about is hunting from a roadway.

Good, they have 6x10 rooms so you can think it over for a while. Bear spray, dogs will keep a distance after one little squirt. You don't have to paint them with it. A whiff is all it takes.

Now me, I'd wait until the wind was blowing that way. Set out 40 steel traps. Put some fresh grilled steak left overs out. Beat them dogs to death with a club, and haul them off ten miles or so, leaving them five miles apart. Throw away club too, off miles away. They get me stirred up, they'll get tired of getting new dogs. Leave cell phone at home when you haul them off, so law can't track you. Dip traps in gas to get dog off them. I'd probably haul traps off too until I was sure no law was involved. Messing with my mailbox would be a bad decision for them.

My brothers daddy in law just got into trouble for that. And he was the one that had the dogs. He learned you can't have two loose big pit bulls, not with neighbors.

My neighbor had 6 rottweiler dogs running loose. But he ain't got them no more. He was over a mile away, but dogs roam. These didn't come home. Poor dogs.

Any time that you defend yourself you do so knowing that’s a possibility. The question is which danger is greater.

I wouldn't use anything they can match and trace to me. You do know all guns sold in the last decade or longer have been shot and ballistic catalogued before sale? When they find your bullet somewhere, they already have gun and serial number it matches to. Then it's just a matter of who owns the gun now. Our government has done got dirty about things.

Whatever. I’ve never done anything which I wouldn’t own up to, and don’t intend to start now.

When they are leaving poop in your mail box, it's way past that level. After I done called the law and they didn't come? Time to be on the news.

You are responsible for your bullet, when it leaves the barrel you still own it.
The government got this one right.

Paper money does not have RFID embedded.
Guns are not ballistically catalogued before sale.

I promise you, that's pure fantasy. It's not even easy to tell if it's .38 vs .380 vs 9mm. Yes, the government is trying, but they're miles away from that. Bullets fragment and deform, if you have the gun already and fire a test into gel, then compare it to the bullet in a body, you maybe have 50% chance of telling whether it has been fired from the same gun. To much CSI these days.

Dollars to Doughnuts, I'll bet that the 26 year old dipstick IS ALREADY ON PROBATION, I'll bet his PO would love to hear the story. That could lead to charges, breaches of probation, extra attention ... all the stuff that the adult-basement-dweller would probably like to avoid.

I actually have one pistol 22LR/ 22mag revolver that was ballistics tested Wife bought it for me off a "friend". And they were pretty quick to point out that it in fact had been ballistics tested by the local PD before it was offered up for sale.

I'm thinking that there was a story there some where that I really don't want to know

I think you may be right...
I dug up the paper work and manual for my 13 year old Ruger revolver.
Back then, some states required hand guns to be test fired and the case be put in a sealed container along with pertinent information.

After the sale, the dealer in those states had to send the case a designated destination such as their state police laboratory.

Iowa wasn't one of those states back then because I have the test fired case in the envelope it came in.

I don't know what they did with the case then, and I have no idea if the law is still in effect.

Ruger Single Six? I bought one new over 50 years ago for my wife that had never fired a pistol. She still injoys plinking with LRs in the cylinder. Some question it's ability to stop an intruder or humanly dispatch varmints but I believe being comfortable firing it coupled with ability to group well more than make up for fewer grains of lead. Not that I think she will ever use it on the neighbors or their dogs.

Yeah, that would make sense for the police department to check ballistics on a firearm before selling it to see if it's been used in a crime. You didn't get it new from a factory, which is what "the person" is arguing.

As someone once told me when we laughed at his .25...

"I'll bet you run just as fast if I point this at you and start shooting."

Now there's all kinds of arguments about stopping the threat, etc., but that point about deterrent is pretty valid. I'd guess most people that break into a house or try and carjack someone will retreat pretty fast once they start getting shot at be it a .22 or a .45.
