RE: Dogs and Optics - Force Multipliers for Residential Security
Will I be shamed if i said i often ignore odd noises? :D I always just assume its one of the cats and turn over. I could use an excuse card and say the crime rate here is super low...almost nonexistent (if i take the gypsys out of the equation )... then again if i went and checked the odd noise im not so sure what id do...scream him to death? :>
It sounds like you probably live in an apartment? Both dogs and optics work best in rural areas. There are still benefits to both in an urban area, but they are not as valuable. Do you live in a city or in the country? Single family detached home or not? Are people not allowed to have guns for self defense in Slovenia?
U have to imagine Slovenia as one big rural area. Basiclly what you have is lots and lots of small villages and on occasion a "larger city" which by your standards would still be just a bigger village lol.
So yes...i live in a village (round 50 ppl) in a house, single family. The nearest town has about 20k people. Our capital doesn't even have 300k people.
Well I guess if there is no need to self defend there is no need to have a gun (but ofc you are allowed to have one - its just rare). I only know one person who actually has a gun...my father...but again...he has no neighbours and lives near the gypsys and their blood runs hot. I don't even know anyone who knows self-defence. If you feel like runing at 2 am...you can go. Its not all sun and flowers .... dont get me wrong - we had a gun "incident" just last year. But just saying...It is a pretty safe place to be.
It sounds like a nice place to live. Just secure the house well, and then you can sleep at ease. When my house is locked up for the night, I have very little concerns. A person would have to make a lot of noise to get inside, and it would take them a while. ;-)
