    I've got.2 children , even though they are easily accessible to me, they would need a ladder to get to them (I checked, our tallest chair is not high enough) .

    I wouldn't count on it. At 7 they can scale pretty much anything if they are determined.

    I would add that I've heard it said that a gun in the house that can't be brought to bear in 7 seconds or less often isn't usable.
    I'm sure some will differ on the accuracy of this.

    About 1.5 years ago one of my best friends, Ron, was shot to death in his own living room.
    This happened at 5:30am on a Sunday.
    The bad guy stole a gun out of a parked car 3 doors away from Ron's house, then broke in to rob him. He was known to carry cash.

    Yes. The only place I don't have a gun on me is in the shower.
    When in the shower, a handgun is within reach of the tub.

    My handgun(s) are my American express.
    I don't go ANYWHERE without one...

    big bluff as in guard rails should be along the road. One point of the bluff there was a 10' rock ledge the car slid over .. So steep you can barely walk it. Have you ever heard of the "Devil's backbone" in Lawrence county?This bluff I speak of is just west of the actual backbone.

    I carry outside my home inside I have several firearms in different spots. My edc gets laid down close to where I sit or sleep. I've got 2 dogs now so 2 alarms go off when someone is on property.
