I Think I’m Being Followed

 Have you ever looked in your rearview mirror and thought you were being followed? If so, your first instinct was probably to get home as quickly as possible. AS you gripped the steering wheel tighter and pressed down on the accelerator pedal, you began to panic. Thoughts of being car jacked, robbed or assaulted and possibly become the next rape victim raced thru your mind. As you turned into your subdivision, your vision was clouded by beads of sweat. Only when you pulled into your driveway, did a sense of relief come over you. To avoid victimization, you need to have a game plan in place before finding yourself in a threatening situation and that gut feeling should not be taken lightly. Good advice, especially when you think you’re being followed.

Can I buy a gun to keep at home?

Damn son, you've been busy! You can indeed buy a shotgun to defend your home. Just remember that it’s not justifiable to shoot someone while they're breaking into your car. UNLESS you’re in Texas, refer to penal code 4.92. At your age you can buy rifles and shotguns, if you have a clear criminal record. Handguns, you have to be 21.However check with your local and sate officials this is my suggestion, I am sure that when you discovered the break-in in your vehicle you did call the police (I hope) then you should ask one of the officers in reference to purchasing a firearm. In addition when and if you decided to get any type of weapons for house protection remember safety classes are the best investment that you can make for you and your family. Remember son there’s more then just pulling a trigger. A wrong judgment call can mark your life forever emotionally, financially and on the other hand you will live with guilt forever.

Good luck
