This is a good article on home defense. I have one disagreement with the article: birdshot is next to useless if your intruder is wearing a ballistic vest of any sort. Ballistic vests are common, and not terribly expensive. I used to have one, and intend to replace the one I had at some point. These look interesting, but I really want a back-and-breast set.

Comment from “Jess” at the link:

“Whatever they are, a pissed off goose will use them. It hurts and they usually won’t go away until you smack them with a shovel.”

 
Experience is knowledge, and knowledge obtained from another’s experience is often better. If you’re gonna go and piss off a goose, bring a shovel to the fight, and that’s The Blogmocracy Practical Tip O’ The Day, presented for discussion on The Overnight Open Thread.
