Life in Rural Arizona:
When we bought our place in Arizona, I found out the local fire district and sheriff’s department didn’t have a 911 address for the ranch. So, I went to the county to fix the problem. They gave me a one-page form and told me to attach a picture of our driveway.
I said, “We don’t have a driveway. We have a jeep trail.”
The gal at the county said, “That’s OK, Mr. Persinger. We have over 800 miles of county roads—only 60 miles of them are paved.”
Here’s a picture of our “driveway.”
By the way, the “county road” that runs to the front gate of our property is actually on our land. So even the county N road is a private road. N stands for “Non-maintained,” which simply means the county doesn’t maintain it. We maintain the road, but it’s still listed on the county map. Rural life—definitely not like the burbs.
Grok made the Mariachi Band. The others we deported. 😁

In the second half, I discuss a home invasion case from Oceanside California in which the homeowner successfully defended himself.
'Law Enforcement Zero' came up in my CCW class this weekend. Most folks have no clue about where law enforcement is headed—and it's not good.
