  1. People getting sick of these, like the ex chief of police in upper darby use to say “scum bags”, always trying to take somebody’s hard earned property. If you own a gun and carry it, “shoot to stop the threat”, even if it means taking someone’s life; because if you don’t they surely will shoot you.

  2. Should be able to protect one’s property people are getting sick of the bullshit. I love it.let these mfers know there are consequences for there actions. Enter if they dare!!
