So i'm interviewing for a locksmith company today and I just came across this video on their website...Lets just say I want the job and the first check I get ima buy a better deadbolt! you guys may have already seen this, but I just wanted to spread this info! NOT FOR PURPOSES OF BREAKING INTO PEOPLES HOMES! TO BETTER PREPARE YOURSELF AS A GROWER AND CITIZEN TO THE A-HOLES THAT COULD BE OUT THERE!

The best lock in the world does not prevent them from smashing out a window!
A good dog and an alarm system that makes ALOT of noise helps,setup as many roadblocks as you can so they just move on to easier pickings but sadly if they want in and theres no one home to physically stop them your fucked.

Set your doors to open away from your room. Makes it way harder to kick the door in. Get a big nasty dog and feed it cocaine.

Locks keep honest people honest.

Trick is to make it so other targets are easier. Thieves are generally lazy. If they know what they are after, and you have it (your grow, your guns) the thieves will find a way in.

Yeah, the no one home thing is what im talkin about. If I was home its either im dead or the mofucka in my house is. Nothing else to it. I've been thinkin my BHO tube with a metal screen and sharp metal hose clamp would be a good hand to hand weapon, NOW instead of being tucked away its shiny clean right by the bedside :banana1sv6:

If I fed my dog cocaine it would die, here i'll post a pic. His heart already beats out of his chest, and he sleeps more soundly than his owners! Lil fucker! Picture posted below of my "beast" hahah.

I had 3 but I gave the 3rd 1 to a friend that wanted him 4 his grow house he always wanted 2 fight my other dogs.. I feed my dogs at nite cuz 4 some reason there full of energy after they eat & there up allnite tweaking around.. It's funny cuz I would of figured they would b all full & sleepy like me after I eat.. No there up allnite & most of the day I kinda never see them sleep they juss rest during the day.. I don't even need 2 lock my door cuz my dogs r outside.. They won't eat from anybody but me.. When I go out of town I have my brother come over 2 feed them he slides food under the fence but when I come home the food is still there.. It's like they don't trust anybody they think he's poisoning them or sumthin.. Even when I feed them I put down the food & they juss stand there till I tell them 2 eat my dogs r crazy they don't like anybody but me, my kids, & my girl..

Thats funny bro! I have a soft spot for pits, but when I have the chance and spot to get a big dog its going to be a rot. I had one growing up and that fool was a BEAST. Someone robbed a bank across the st from my house, ran down my driveway over my fence....3seconds later right back over after my dog tore him a new ass. No one was home but the cops told us about it, haha.

Same shit though, he would only eat if my dad or I gave him food, not even my grandpa who nurtured him as a pup could come through when I was gone.

Gotta love the loyalty and protection a big dog gives ya! The little ones like mine now are just for love, haha, a companion and somewhat alert system.

Any one heard of Cane Corso Mastiffs? I have two they are both about 120 lbs and only a year old. They each eat half a whole chicken, twice daily. One of the best dogs you can have that will protect you and your home just by their instinct. Others I would suggest are Dobberman, presa canario (if u can hang probly the most dominant breed today), Or a rott for shure. I worked at a dog training facility for a long time as a decoy so I know which ones got stopping power lol.

If you want a dog that will intimidate people, look in to Anatolian Shepherd. I had one 10 years ago. Romulus was as intimidating as they come. Nobody would come in unless he said they could. Strangers... no fuckin way.

Here is a pic of what he looked like:

Yeah, he definitely was a tight ass dog. Got his eye taken out the first day I got him by my grandparents stupid ass cat. I was only a year old and was more interested in my spy googles and the puppy wasn't my biggest concern. 10mins later he was a cyclops! Didn't stop him one bit, straight beast mode his whole life until his hips gave out at 15 years old (typical rot problem) and we had to put him down.

I'll be getting another pup sometime soon, a pits, rots, and german shepherds have a soft spot in my heart!

Damn bro, that is a beast if ive ever seen one! My neighbors have a HUGE french mastiff named chuck. He's a bossy mofucka and isn't down with me in his yard when momma/daddy aren't home, unless I grab a log an throw it a few times, and yeah a log. Sticks aren't big enough hahaha.


Good shit cap, RIP Romulus, no matter how long its been since he's passed. Shit always hits you harder than you ever think it could. Like loosing your best homie!

I do sub contracting for the last 25 years. I noticed something like this but worse. I concluded it might be a manufacturing mandate from the government to aid law enforcement on entering residences without your awareness. Nothing other than your hand to turn the doorknob. Deadbolts need to be treated as the video represents.

My neighbor was locksmith for 20+ yrs. Told me about bumping last summer while we blazed 1. Got locked out (more then once) and without bumping, he could unlock my door in seconds.. Looked at him a lil differently after that. I know hes a pro but still.. If he ever wanted to, he could get in just about anywhere. Told me alot of the pros back in the day would keep a copy of the places they made keys for, to make it alot faster to make keys again, if needed in the future. Makes you wonder who still does that?

Straight up right? I was talking to the owner and he was telling me about about bumping and picking. He even showed me his pick set. Crazy shit!

Almost like being a super hero! Have the power to break into anything and everything when your a pro locksmith, but you have to use your powers for good not evil!

Back to the topic of my dog. I read this and almost teared up. Its exactly like mine. Pekingese are truely a special breed of dog, even if they aren't the biggest or best for security my little "bean" has been the most loving and affectionate canine companion i've ever had! (besides my rot i grew up with, would KILL to have that fucker back). So much personality!
