England Home Defense Weapon – The Broom

armspost | General 2-Cents | August 10, 2011

We just saw something on the news about residents of England defending their homes and neighborhoods with brooms….  REALLY, A BROOM?

Can you imagine only having a broom at your disposal to defend yourself, your property, family, friends, and neighbors?  I find that a shotgun, pistol or rifle works much better.  A criminal wants to meet as little resistance as possible.  A broom is like using a garden hose to put out a house fire.  I want a fire engine, not a garden hose.  The police are expected to defend the citizens, but what happens when that police force is stretched too thin?  You are $&!# out of luck!
