Unfortunately all of us have bad knees or backs.

Not me. Yet. 54, and still out-running the young guns.

I wish my knees were 30 years old, instead they feel like 90 years old thanks to 2 car accidents & a fight with the basketball court. Had an arthroscopy done with little results as I even have a bit of difficulty going up stairs.

I've came to the thinking like others, if the parent is out there and not hindering the treatment or harassing the floor officials: let them be.

My point is you can use the TASER or an LRAD from the comfort of your seat.

Better yet? A Winchester Model 1873.

35 feet or so but they aren't as accurate a pistol. Make sure when firing you account for the 12 degree downward angle they fire at.

And don't go in having already decided to fire it even though you haven't assessed the situation. :eek:

I'd rather use a 1976 Ruger 6 Security Bicentennial instead, sorry :D

When I do firearm shooting, I always verify severity of situation & clearly identify target before shooting.

Try unwanted animals (dogs & cats) coming onto the property. An occasional pop can/plastic bottle.

Oh my...I'm sorry I asked.
