I know a gun loving woman who years ago here in the Villages heard a noise in her bedroom, grabbed her .38 and put a hole in her vacuum which had shifted its weight while in her bedroom's closet.

I do worry about our trigger finger happy gun culture.

Should we ever be invaded by a FOREIGN ENEMY, they would likely not care about a bunch or 70 year olds in the Villages. A DOMESTIC ENEMY is far more likely.
