    Tut tut tut... anyone who knows anything about self defence knows that when using a stick/bar/hurl/axe handle etc etc you dont swing it.. you jab with it to the largest part of the body ie torso because swing and miss .... and your up crap creek

    Already covered all that, although i now think we should set up a Baseball Bat Swinging Forum!!!!

    I have a severe phobia of burglary(No idea why)
    I keep a hammer, a blowtorch and a high power pellet gun tied under my bed to the frame.
    Im also one of them people who triple check windows and doors before i sleep. I also keep a few cans of cheapo deodarant to spray incase(Comes in handy when im out of good deodarant too :p)

    I have a baseball bat, hurley, and a couple of hammers,a pool ball in a sock and (4 brothers living nearby)
    Though id use whatever i could get my hands on if i had to, whether it be the stereo or the wii!

    When i lived in London years ago my old landlord, a guy from cork, was being taken to court by a burglar who broke into has house via the back door-he was disturbed by the landlord who came down the stairs=he tried to escape via the front door, only to find himself trapped in the porch as the sliding doors were locked, so the landlord gave him a few belts with a hammer. I never did find out how the case went though.

    Although that law is bollox i'll take that over having "the right to bear arms".


    Apparently you have.

    My apartment in Israel has a Uzi in the door of the wardrobe
    a .223 bushmaster in the spare room a barak pistol an a service M4 in the press just inside the door lest any bold people try to break in
    In Ireland i will refrain from saying what I have as the number of people incriminating themselves with "high power air rifles " is ridicolous just like my spelling.
