Take one of your shotgun shells @TorturedSoul remove the shot and replace with medium size rocksalt mixed with some red cayenne pepper. Then use OO buck for the second just incase he didn't understand the first shot......

...I'll call before I come over.
I do keep a 44 mag close
and acouple 380's
But I'd hate to kill a kid over a stupid plant.
Most everyone does, except for a certain ex-stripper when she's on one of her (less and less frequent ) vacations from the nuthatch. And she makes up for it by being rather... verbal as she's heading up the porch stairs.
Like I say to most folks, my pirate friend, you're more than welcome, but call first. And if you come in the middle of Winter, bring some food if you can .
I shot the one my buddy kept trying to loan me for the purpose. Not as much kick as I expected (it's a revolver, and heavy, and both of those things help, I think) - but it's still hard on my deteriorating hand/wrist. On the other hand, depending on the load, the target probably isn't walking away regardless of where he gets hit. They make an awfully big hole, and that whole sudden loss of blood pressure thing is a bit hard to deal with.
I tried a .380 some time back, but wasn't impressed. But it was one of those $50 "bargains," so not representative of the caliber. It also had a short barrel, the grip was too short (IMHO), and the slide attacked my hand.
I like a decently weighty 9mm or a .38 Special revolver with the right ammo. What I'd really like is a nice .357 Magnum revolver with a 4" (or maybe slightly longer) barrel, because it ought to be pretty accurate and I could run any .38 Special ammo I wanted through it.
I also drool over the FN Five-seveN. I'd love to own one of those and have an endless supply of *my choice* of ammo for it. Nice quality, 4.8" barrel, nice accuracy, etc. They seem pretty doggone loud for such a small caliber, but that's probably perception more than anything. The 20-round magazine capacity isn't necessary, but it's certainly not a problem, lol. My only real gripe with it is the significant muzzle flash. Seems like an outstanding firearm.
The FN P90 personal defense weapon that it was designed in conjunction with is a bullpup design, is a wonderful gun, has a 50-round capacity magazine... and is enough to give a man a semi. No real downside in any situation I can imagine myself ever being in, and that includes being invaded by a foreign army .
I'd hate to kill a "kid," too. On the other hand, the thought of punching a thief's ticket doesn't bother me any more than doing a violent cr@ck dealer. Look at it this way, if the human race was lucky enough that you did so before he managed to breed, you would be improving the gene pool.
Someone chooses to steal, whatever happens to them is their fault, yeah? About the time Mom got pregnant with what eventually turned out to be me, Dad broke into a grocery store late one night after it had closed. The way I heard it, he stole two sacks of assorted groceries because there was no food in the house for Mom and my two brothers to eat (I know, I know, why did they make another child, then? IDFK the answer to that one...) and he was out of work. He'd have gotten away with it, too, were it not for the fact that, later after he'd gotten back to work, he went back and tried to pay the owner for the groceries and the damage he'd caused breaking in, at which point the guy called the cops. According to Mom, Pop freely admitted to what he'd done, was nice to the arresting officer, and pled guilty. And like he told me when I reacted to the story and started pestering him with questions, "If there'd been a watchman there and I'd gotten dusted that night, it would have been nobody's fault but my own." He then told me to make sure I did well in school and to make sure I went to college so that I'd never find myself unable to feed my family. I failed miserably at that, so I've pretty much chosen not to have one (wife/offspring, I mean).
We're responsible for our own actions, regardless of what our motivation is. Everyone over the age of eight or so ought to be able to tell the difference between right and wrong.
The biggest reason I'd shoot a thief without batting an eye, though... I'm not as young as I used to be (common thing ), and am starting to know what "broken down" is like. And the type of person who'd break into an occupied house probably isn't all that familiar with the value of things, including his/her fellow human beings. Why should I have to depend on someone - who's clearly a miscreant - being more willing to take a fall and go to jail than to kill a witness and make jail far less likely? I mean... It comes down to that whole "right and wrong" thing, and you kind of have to make assumptions based on what you know about a person. With a thief, you know he's a f*cking criminal. Rather than hope that I could physically defend myself, or do so with a knife at knife-range, I'd much prefer having a tool that makes it not much of an uncertainty.
My moral code might differ a bit from the average person's, but I do have one.
