Here I sit in my apartment, double-barreled 10-gauge shotgun loaded with "slug" shells...
I had to come home through this, then get awakened with two more rounds of "shots fired"...
Sorry if my posts tonight are a little off...

Duke Manor Security Guard Shot Multiple Times (http://abc11.com/news/shooting-at-duke-manor-apartments-in-durham-/955672/)
I am ex-military in many fire zones....
Long time ago in a place far, far away...

Living in an apartment you might want to invest in some ammo that doesn't go through walls.

I have to agree. But the only ammo I had for the only gun I have here are "slug" shells.
Have already invested into some "buck" shot and "bird" shot shells.
However, I am always of a soldier's mindset. One shot, one kill, or two, or three...
Remember, although I went through the first six weeks of boot camp as Navy, I was pulled out and sent to Paris Island and finished another six weeks as a Marine (long story). When I hear, or am awakened by gunfire, my first thought is, "Hoorah! Death! to the enemy!" as I was trained.
To this day, I still do not know how they "drill" those reactions into us soldiers, but they do it so well, it lasts a lifetime. I have been out of the military for 25 years, but my "gut" reactions are always as a "soldier", NEVER as a civilian. Or as a "Marine." Semper Fi!!
The only problem I have is that the security guard was also an ex-Marine; thus, he was also a "Brother." He was also a "friend." Fortunately, being an armed security guard, he also wore a flak jacket. It was the only thing that saved his life.
Currently, he is still in ICU, but stable condition. He will live, but rehab may present some problems. I can only hope I can be here for him. My job has given me a month's leave with pay. Gotta love some companies who look out for their own. Especially ex-military and their "brothers."
