Well, do you..? when traveling down the road.



When traveling, we're in and out of the camper often. Locks are honest people deterrents, but we do use them when we go in the store, leave the camp site, etc. Never had a door open when we've forgotten to lock them, so just picking the brains of the many out of curiosity.

See, great questions stem from drinking good wine...

The post are drifting away from the subject. It has nothing to do with guns or other drama. Please stay on topic, or risk having your post deleted.

Is that what he is upset about?

lol... awesome.

216 people live in Canada. You're married to one, which makes 16 of them direct relatives. Second cousins and their off spring cover another 92.

Co-workers between the two of you is another 15. 42 are in jail, leaving 49 people you need to worry about.

At any given time, 12 of them are working at a Tim Horton's with 18 patrons visiting, drinking coffee. Six cops are enroute to Tim Horton's, and two just left.

If you had a gun, you could easily defend yourself from the remaining 11 threats.

I'd move.

AWESOME response to a dumb answer....I love it....Dennis

and you wonder why the world thinks of you the way they do.i'm officially done with this forum.

West Virginia has 3 family names.... I moved and changed my name.

^^^^^^ Bawahahahah....

I'm thinking that I'm going to let the 'horney' nickname fall by the wayside.


....


bcbouy, lighten up. I'm always amazed at how ones panties get all wadded up because someone doesn't agree with them, has a different sense of humor or doesn't see the other side of something. I've got some fantastic folks that I spend a lot of time with that live North...and they take the ribbing just as well as they can dish it out. Our differences are unique and create good humor within our already uptight world.

eh?

It is amazing what one can learn here:

A few have guns stored in their camper.... if they aren't home they are an easy mark... they'll just shoot your dog.

I would suggest that folks don't advertise their "hobbies" using decals in the windows.

Janet and I followed a very small van through Oak Ridge within the last week.... it has the rear window covered with decals... Sig Sauer, Colt, Winchester, Taurus, etc.... probably 40 decals. Why would the owner do it? Was I impressed? ... or did I think he was about as stupid as they get.

If the bad guy wants a large or valuable collection who will he follow home...? if he going to rob someone of valuable guns will he just do a home invasion and shoot the braggart that advertized it or will he do a home invasion of some one that he isn't sure of them having anything at all?

I personally think that a person is very intellegent to minimize any show of possesions or wealth in or around your truck camper or your home.

Janet and I will admit to having a huge T shirt collection from all over North America... most people are too big to wear our clothes though....

"Sleepy" is a safe name.... it doesn't tell much.

I thought about "horney" but there was a waitng list for it. Now I'm too old to change it.... I really am sleepy most of the time.

Lock your doors...it's an IQ test!

Traveling down the road in NV, car pulls along side and yells the back door is open. Yeah we lock the door when departing now. Side note, locked the door when I went fishing o'dark thirty while wife was inside sleeping. Somehow the prevented her from unlocking from inside, pissed wife when I got back. Check your lock operation.

That'll teach her to get up with you and see you off. LOL!

Fat chance of that Dave.

At this point, I'm guess I'm lucky that she follows me out the door and launches us. :C

Folks....I do wonder if many of us have the same "opinions" as I have,
But....while traveling in Canada,(B.C.) 4 times I had someone try to rob us of fishing gear, and once of camping stuff. So, if someone is looking to do this...beware of the sound of a 12 gauge ****ing!

I do lock our back door so the dogs don't get out,when we travel down the road,and if I am not there....DO NOT try to open the door....the dogs DO dislike being disturbed! ( 2 are over 60 lbs, and of course...1 is an ankle biter)

I use both locks when goin down the road, as I've had the door pop open twice.

That's what got me thinking..

Locked usually. After the locks froze up with two dogs inside wanting to relieve themselves, we adjusted the policy to account for weather.

Policy adjustment...lol, probably a good one.

I live in the USA and the answer is no for me. What's your point?

I don't leave anything in the camper that I'm not prepared to have stolen. Simple as that.

lmao.... Better answer than my dumb answer.

It's none of your business.... please knock before you try to make an entry.... better still, knock and step back 6 feet or so with your hands where we can see them.

I'd never answer questions like that in a public forum.

You could have simply not responded...But that's not your M.O. We don't all wear tin foil hats so it's really no big deal to answer a question.

lmao...great response. Sleepy has lot's of good information and has almost as many opinions as I. But he should get more than one alias; perhaps Grumpy, and then put in for Happy (we all have to aim for something).

Actually, I agree in spirit; I'm amazed at what folks post that is really private. My question here was literally about locking while driving down the road. Not to personal in my book, but alas, one can always decline to respond.
