Not sure how it is in the UK, but I imagine having some sort of lock on a shed may be useful for insurance purposes, even if it can be broken.

I make sure all my door & windows are locked before going out, even if I'm just going round the corner for a minute. I also have a claw hammer underneath my bed within arms reach in case some meth fiend breaks in during the night. Messing intruders up is generally illegal, but these days you can't afford to assume they only want to flog something and bugger off.

...Honestly lowing, there's no point in us getting into this debate again! We sit firmly on either side of the argument.
Yer right Braddock, all law abiding citizens do is run around town shootin' up the place until they get locked up.
It would seem that a lot of them do lowing... enough for me to be happy with our gun policies over here.

Sorry ya feel that way, maybe you should cut down on American western movies?

But lowing, he is a law abiding citizen, remember. He should be able to arm himself to the teeth if he wants to.

The doors have never been locked at any house I have lived in. Actually, one, when I lived in Irvine

I don't lock my door - because I am trying to appease criminals.

I think lowing just likes typing the word 'appeasement'.

Now yer gettin' it. Good job. A country where a citizen is allowed to protect and defend himself is a good country. A country I would rather live in than a country where the police are only good for chalking the outlines of bodies after the crime.

No actually, not locking your doors does not mean you are trying to appease criminals.

Not locking your doors because it causes more damage when criminals break in is the appeasement factor. I am truely sorry you don't understand that.

Its not a GB mentality, we have a particularly limp wristed govt in place at present.
And its one minor council area making an idiot comment, not the Prime Minister - whoever he is.

Fuck Israel

Not locking your doors because it causes more damage when criminals break in is the appeasement factor. I am truely sorry you don't understand that.

Its not 'appeasement' just dumb logic.

Advice from MI5 on how to protect your home and property:-

Lock external doors etc, make your house hard to get into, dog, climbing roses.

If someone does get in you want minimal damage, and you want them out ASAP.
- Don't lock internal doors, cupboards etc - once in they will smash them to pieces, no-one will see or hear.
- Leave GBP50 on the table with a note 'This is for the plumber, I'll be back in ten minutes'
Most likely its just some scumbag looking for a fix, if they can take your 50 quid instead of your tv (which they'll only get 20 for) or ransacking your house everyone wins.

Its not appeasement, just prudence in the shitty state the law and order system is in in the UK right now.

Fuck Israel

that article is just stupid.

But by ur logic lowing... wouldnt America have a lower crime/ homicide rate because of more people owning guns?
http://thegreenman.net.au/mt/archives/000055.html

According to this US homicide rate is approx 4 times the amount of UK, Australia, New Zealand etc

not sure how reliable that source is... but really i have better things to do than troll the internet looking for articles.

Jeez you must have fun trolling through the shittiest online newspapers you can find to poke fun at the UK. Seriously one council telling owners of council owned sheds to leave them unlocked is not representative of a country of 60 million people really is it. But don't let me spoil your fun online.

The spelling mistakes where a play on the hick mentality of someone scared shitless as to constantly search "Brits appease Muslims" or whatever other tactics people are using to gather shit about us. You see the same on youtube from the Armchair IRA.

Did I say that? No.

It was in reference to lowing, and directed straight at him.

You come across as quite an intelligent person, maybe you're only half American?
