As a father of 3 girls I'm dreading the day... guns may not work, but I was thinking a plastic lined trunk, a ball gag, big bottle of astroglide, and a cordless sawzall might do the trick if we ever get a shit bag brought home.
Raising them right to respect themselves seems the best path though. |

People are beyond stupid. This makes gun ownership look like cliched stereotypical kooks. Instead of threatening a total stranger with murder, maybe don't raise your daughters to date scumbags. If she isn't raised with any sense of good judgment, a threat like this will only give her all the more reason to date the scumbag.

First girlfriends dad did this. He is a small town cop and didn't know I was a gun nut. Backfired on him. She turned into a wonderful but crazy ex.

Dumb idea. The girl has the tools to take your power struggle farther than you.
Trying to intimidate her boyfriend is a great way to get him laid. |

I suspect it would work better if you only showed him the one pistol, while it was in his mouth.
Probably still not worth the bother, though. |

I won't do it, it's stupid. The first time I met my wife's father, he waited until she went to the bathroom and said "She's a sweet girl. If anyone ever hurt her I'd kill them." and then kind of stared at me. I said immediately "Don't worry about that. If anyone hurts her, they'll be killed and disposed of before you even know about it." I figured out later that he was all talk anyway, but the look on his face was pretty funny.

I'm leaning toward stupid for legal reasons. "Putting the boy in his place" can turn into "felony assault of a minor with a firearm" if the boy has liberal shitbird parents, and/or, calls the cops from the dance. The Internet and the times has made kids think like that now days. Just look at "swatting" people they don't like from a video game... Quote HistoryQuoted:

my FIL tried it when I started dating my wife, didnt work out considering I immediately offered to buy the ammo and go shooting with him.
So a question for ARF: have you had that "I'll be cleaning my guns"/ "these are my guns" father to boyfriend moment? And in today's climate would you do it to your daughters boyfriend? Or have you done it to the prospective boyfriend For me, having them out and in hand is a no no. To easy to get charged in the wrong situation. If I have a daughter, I'll be tempted to have one in a holster and openly carried when the boy arrives, but my hands will go nowhere near it. This variation looks to be more effective, but more dangerous: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1741912_.html

I've raised two wonderful daughters so I know what I'm talking about in this regard. Keep the guns in the safe but whisper in his ear that 'whatever he does to my daughter I'm going to do to him'.
Needless to say it worked every time but once. My youngest came home from the 'movies' and asked her mother to take her to get the 'plan B' pill in the morning. I didn't say a word, I just got up, drove to the young man's home, and plowed him right there on his porch. After he finished crying and was cleaning himself up I told him why I did it. He understood completely, and admitted he shouldn't have called my bluff. We shook hands and he went back into the house not just a little sore, but a little wiser as well. I'm proud to say that young man is now my son-in-law. |

Went with a girl I knew in college to her dad's house one time. The dude kept flexing his biceps while giving me his best alpha male stare in what I can only assume was an attempt to intimidate me. I thought it was kind of odd at the time... now I think it's hilarious.

It was my Ex-MIL that gave me the talk, I can't blame her.
Her Daughter was 20, I was 35 with 2 kids. (daughter never lived outside of their home) She was kind of a big woman, just gave me the coldest, iciest stare and said, "If you do Anything to hurt my daughter, I will Really Hurt You, no matter what it takes, or how Much it Cost's." MIL-FIL and I got along great, I was the son they always wanted, in a way. Sadly, after 12 years, it ended in divorce, I do still deeply care for her, never saw her since then, the wife, not MIL! |

I've gotten yelled at twice by my daughter for 'intimidating' her boyfriends.
Funny thing is, I don't act any different than I usually do. I'm gracious and polite, and ask about their interests, and how their family is doing. Of course they usually see the holstered pistol on my waist (I carry 24/7) but I don't advertise it, it's just a part of who I am. I just remind them to be respectful of each other and send them on their way. I guess the effeminate little bitches that she dates don't like the thought of having to deal with an actual adult male. Hell, at this rate, I'd be happy to see a tatted up freak with a nose ring and a big muscle car, just so I knew she was dating normal guys. |

Absolutely not.
That little dipshit has no business knowing what I own, because teenage boys do stupid stuff, they have friends that do even stupider stuff, and the friends of their friends are the stupidest of all. My daughter's girl friends? Several of them have been to the range with us. They've helped clean guns afterwards. They're more or less indifferent about it. |

My first girlfriends brother (maybe half my size) tried telling me he had a shovel. I told him big deal, my dad has a track hoe.
As far as when my daughter gets bigger and starts dating, threaten him, no, but he is definitely getting fucked with. If I was going to threaten some kid that wanted to date my daughter with a gun, I'd at least go all out and do the thing from Bad Boys 2, not just clean it.
