Gun control and residential security systems
January 14th, 2010 by Master MindResidential security is the same as saying home security, to most people. I would expect someone selling residential security systems to be an expert in that field and not an expert in office security. I’m curious what people think about when they see “Home Security” because it makes me think of a single family house. Residential security makes me think of apartments for some reason.
No matter what you call it, home or residential security, we all want it and are willing to pay for it. Everyone wants to feel safe in their home or residence. So what’s different about residential versus home security. Not a thing as far as I can tell. I suspect it’s an advertising thing and one phrase appeals to some customers and the other to different customers.
Nothing like a gun to ensure personal safety if the person carrying the gun knows how to use it. As much as it pains me to admit it I do know people who’d do more damage to themselves with a gun than they would to a robber or home intruder. These idiots are sometims used as arguements for gun control.
Guns are a tool. A piece of metal and plastic. Nothing more, nothing less. The problem isn’t guns, the problem is what people do with guns. Statistics show that homeowners are more likely to hurt themselves or some in the house than they are an intruder. So the call is to ban guns to protect idiots from themselves.
I have a different solution. Like all tools some training is required to use the tool correctly. Gun training should be mandatory in 4th or 5th grade in every school in the country. Yes, girls too.
Oh, come on, we, as a country are never going to give up our guns. Never! It just won’t happen. We may outlaw guns but no matter what we will never give up our guns. We also have the perfect excuse. They protect our freedom and our personal safety. The govt can’t do that even if they could somehow manage to confiscate all guns.
