Security

In reality, it's not us you have to worry about. 9 out 10 home burglaries are committed by either family members, sometimes those even living in your home, or close friends who know exactly what you have and where it's at. It's very rare thats it's a random break in by a stranger.

Whats with all of those people here out to get me?

Imagine what would happen to this site if posting my private info here led to my harm?

 

No one here is out to get you (let us hope!), we're just trying to get you to understand why you should stop posting sensitive information then brazenly acting as if you are above the inherent danger you posed to yourself!

And what if something bad happened... it would all point back to you showing off, literally!

 

I think that with anything else, you have to be careful of what pics of certain coins or bullion that you post. I will admit that I am guilty of this since I like to post certain silver art bars on a thread that I started here on this forum. I try to take my pics in such a way where the location would not be known. There is no such thing as privacy on the Internet. I knew that before becoming a member of CoinTalk and posting silver art bar pics.

Outside of this, I do not talk about what I collect. Nobody locally (except the dealers that I buy from) knows what I collect and I want to keep it that way. Whether you post coin pics or not on this forum, you out there in public. Just the fact that we are posting about our coin and bullion collections on this forum also puts us out there in the intenet public.

Could a thief track a collector down from this (or any other) forum? Sure they could once they know your real name and exact street address where you live.

I will admit that I have been careless and made mistakes on other forums in terms of posting about myself and I have learned from that. Like with anything else, I just be careful of how you post coin pics and about keeping certain information to myself.

 

CoinTalk members can be very hard on people that come here with too large of an ego and not enough wisdom to back it up and yes most of us prefer some attempt at grammatical correctness ( I wouldn't be so rude as to point out typos myself, but to each their own. ).

 

Are you talking about dontae morris? because he got a head shot on them, so body armor doesnt matter.

 

I can only reside with you in total agreement

 

exactly

 

With all true respect to the two families of those officers, he ran for like what, a week? Thats crazy.

 

ff-topic:

...and you have what to contribute to this topic yourself Jedi Master??? Absolutely nothing! "These are not the threads you are looking for, move along troll."

 

my best friends family runs a security company and rents out and trains dogs to rich people. i have helped out with the business all my life and dogs(specifically bully breeds) are my interest.

although mastiffs are big, they are not the greatest guard dogs. not very athletic or smart. its just funny how people think they got these big dogs and that automatically makes them good guards!

put it this way my female pit bull is a certified security/guard dog, and also has the "canine good citizens award". her training, has let her know what situations she can help in and what other ones she needs to run from for her safety. i would hate for you to have to rely on your can corso's if something were to happen. sadly they wouldn't be able to get out of the way fast enough. imo, dog abuse...

a little example: walking my dog a bull mastiff got off a porch and started to come after me. now the bull mastiff is not the same as the cane, but close. anyway my dog was easily able to subdue the mastiff without hurting it. the dog should be trained to get the bottom of the neck and place the dog on the ground with force, but not brake skin. they are trained the same for humans as well. you let your dog just got and eat some intruder, you could go to jail(some states).
list of approved dogs to take the security/guard test(SGT).
1. Rottweiler
2. Dogo Argentino
3. Doberman Pinscher
4. American Bulldog
5. American Pitbull Terrier
6. Dogue De Bordeaux
7. Ca De Bou (Mallorquin Bulldog)
8. Belgain Shepherd
9. German Shepherd
these are the only dogs that can be trained for security(at most places). i don't agree with them all, the bold ones are the ones we train. the owner feels the german shepard is the best, his son feels the rotts are the best, his daughter likes the dobbies( but i think its just because she thinks they are cute) and his wife along with me and there cousin love to work with the pit bulls. they are so smart, most athletic, and very loyal.

so please if you want a guard dog, get a properly trained one! i am a little biased with pit bulls, but the other bold choices are good. and if you still feel your cane's will be sufficient, get them trained.. eventually you will find a respectable place to get it done.

 

I swear there is more drama on this forum than all of the crap reality shows on Bravo that my wife loves.

Get a large safe deposit box at two local banks and keep your collection and important papers split between them. You'll sleep better.

Also we have a Llasa Apso. Not the best guard dog but you won't awaken to him chewing on your face...

 

Lhasa apso's were used in Tibetan monasteries and temples to alert the big dogs and those living there of intruders. They're noisy little fellers. But as time came to show the nearly defenseless Tibetans were powerless to the Chinese who barged in and stole all the gold and cultural treasures anyway.

An SDB is the best, most affordable option for individuals to secure their precious collections and sensitive personal items. At least with an SDB the target of a thieves intent is removed from you place of residence and the potential danger to person, pet and home is diminished. :thumb:

 

I'd love to have a "battle of wits" with you... but you appear unarmed.

 

Good one! :rollling: I'll have to have 2-1B sew my arms back on after that masterful comeback of yours and perform a more thorough beat down on your trollish antics. :dead-horse:

 

Interesting

This is becoming the "Codes Cracked & Rules Broken" thread.

But I did find the process of how we ended up at this point informative.

When ya got nothin' ya got nothin' to loose. Bob Dylan.

 

I got plastered last night (Not as bad as the apparent pictures of the OP) so I never bothered to search for his address. Maybe tonight.

 

I think you guys have proved the point that he divulged more information than he may have initially thought, and that he should be more careful as to what he posts and assumes.

 

Me thinks he is jerking our chains!

 

​

Yes, that point definitely has been proven, but whether the OP got the point is yet another.

That may well be the case so let us hope for his very security that it is. :smile
