This forum's search engine isn't quite what Google is. With Google you can just type a question in to search and it will fairly intuitively get you where you want to go. It's better to try a few or several key words. However, even then there can sometimes be several pages of threads to wade through.

I was impressed with the Mormons that showed up a couple of years ago, I had been out in the yard working. We have had assorted critters who were at least a problem to pets if not humans and I often carry when I am outside working anyway. I saw them come up, shut off the lawn mower and walked over to them with my t-shirt inside the butt of the weapon. They didn't bat an eye and we had a good conversation, good on them. I have had meat vendors and such turn into stammering buffoons when they notice I am carrying. My UPS lady doesn't miss a beat. But if you are there after dark, I will most certainly be less than amicable. I do not go to the door or spend time outside without a weapon in hand or on.

OT, how do you get to be an "elder" at 19?

People who come to my door after dark never see my gun! They're more fixed on the starling 100lb German Shepperd!
