Now that’s the way to go. I say include a mote and drawbridge. A boiling vat of oil on the roof just incase the bustards can swim.

I guess throwing in some piranha would help. Just as a back up plan a welcome mat made from cobras.

sledgehammer vs glock however is a very different scenario

don't bring a sledgehammer to a gunfight (paraphrased i know...)
One of my favourite movie quotes

We don't even lock our doors .... We have virtual 24 hour police protection

There is a huge pull off in the woods opposite our house where I park the truck and the police sit behind it with radar guns, they have even moved for me to park, then reversed behind again.
There is no crime in the town that I know of.

Be very carefull JG .... shoot the next bastard that knocks on the door at night.

Can you imagine going out on a stag night before a Mormon wedding ?

Next morning everyone is sitting around holding their heads and crying "Ugh ! ... Did we put away some Cocoa last night or what ?"
