Plans change - as do lifestyles

                                                            

My wife is out of town for the next few days, which means a few things-

-the kids will eat cereal for three meals a day

-they will watch way too much TV and the Frozen movies for the 1,092 time

-their clothes don't have to match at all

And, my home defense plan will slightly change since it's just me in the house.

Typically, if our home alarm goes off, I grab my flashlight and gun and find the threat.

While I'm doing this; my wife calls 911.

It's a pretty simple plan, the way it should be.

But now, if the alarm goes off, I will still grab my gun and flashlight and see what's going on.

Then I will call 911 if need be.

I'm certainly not going to waste precious seconds and call 911 first when an intruder could be making his way to one of my kid's rooms.

Plus, if my alarm is going off, my alarm company will eventually call 911 on my behalf.

My wife called 911 to notify the police sooner and get them to our house fast if there was an actual home invasion.

Two more things-

Many people ask me if I use hearing protection as part of my home defense plan, and the answer is no.

That is the last thing I'm going to spend time on. I want my gun in my hand fast and dealing with the threat.

Plus, there's "auditory exclusion," so you'll be fine. (You'll barely hear the rounds anyway if you did have to fire your gun.)

Another thing I'm asked about often is if I use body armor for home defense.

I do own body armor, but the only time I would use it is some advanced notice.

For example, if a mob was coming toward my house and I had enough time, I would strap on the body armor.

However, if my alarm goes off at 2 am, I'm not taking any extra seconds to put on body armor.

I've got five kids throughout the house, and I'm making sure they're safe as quickly as possible.

Just my two cents.

Whatever you decide to do, make sure your plan is simple and fast.
