    I tell mine to be quiet and go make me a Sandwich LOL. But really I had this happen once to me(from 66 St in longmont all the way down to my house 20 min south). and if you saw how my neighborhood was set up it was enough to throw up a lot of flags

    My wife and I are equally paranoid. It's gotten worse over the years.

    When I leave the house it it like going on a Recon Patrol....old habits die hard!
    I go through mental PCI/PCC's and continuously scan all avenues, choke points, ID all cars in my vicinity etc.
    I do the old loop around the hood trick if needed because is they are following you they(criminals) will know exactly where you live from then on out!
    Even when I'm gone, son(6) knows "The Drills" for fire, smoke, fire alarms, routes out of the house, what doors to use and what to do for the burglar alarm.
    Wife knows exactly where the Saiga is and how to operate it! I tell her "Charge it hard and let it slam forward" the noise alone should scare the crap outta anyone!
    Me paranoid?
    Just situationally aware.

    No 2008f450, you may not play with those boys anymore. They are a bad influence.

    I guess that's a benefit to having married a filipina from Mindanao.

    Better to be paraniod than dead!

    I teach my kids and wife to ALWAYS evaluate their surroundings.

    I can say doing so has already kept each and everyone of them from possible trouble.

    Some call it paranioa I call it prepared.

    No she started rolling her eyes saying "I get it you arejust protecting us from the bad of the world". I think she finally fully understands why my head is always on a swivel and every day is condition yellow. I have started teaching my 4 year old to be aware of his surroundings too.
