Not CC, but home protection

[L. Cooper]

Have any of you ever fired a 12 gauge shot gun in a small room?

Only once for me, and I couldn't hear anything except nearby train whistles for a week. The blast completely disoriented me for a couple of seconds.

I still think a shotgun is the best deterrent possible, and very effective if it has to be used, but one should do the experiment so you won't be as shocked as I was the first time it happened.
