I clean my guns in the driveway on a table and the neighbors don't even think or look twice . Hell we had a guy shoot 2 crooks robbing his neighbors house a while back . No bill . I could not deal with a place that doesn't have some accountability for actions . Down here it is like the crook know they might get shot . Sorry for the off topic semi-rant .

its funny you say that you would be thought of as a nut up here.... I feel exactly like you do and I am considered a gun nut.I also cant tell you how many times ive stopped people on my street that appear suspicious and look like they are going to try to break into a neighbors house yet nobody else seems to hear or see anything; nobody else gives their neighbors the same courtesy. I also have other views that are considered extreme that im sure are normal and ok in Texas, but im of the ilk that you work for a living honestly and keep what you earn/work for . I think i better turn my rant off now too before someone turns this into a political thread which is a no no here Please note others can read whatever they want into my statements but I am in no way making political statements and am done speaking on these matters.
