First off they wouldn't be demanding anything before getting a firearm leveled at them.

Same thing I did last time. That was about 15 years ago, and I think one of them will be getting out in just a bitl.

Run out the backdoor screaming for the cops to help. Oh wait, Missouri has the "Castle Doctrine".

Oh yeah. Washington has the Castle Doctrine also. Even tho the cop shop is less than a minute away, I can open the safe in the same amount of time I can dial 911. And I don't have to wait.

Re: what would you do
It depends on how they expressed their wantonness. Wanting too and taking steps to do so are different matters.

Re: what would you do
My home has been been burgaled twice.
It's NOT a good feeling when you open the door to find your home has been ransacked and your belongings stolen. If I'm home, it will not happen again.

Re: what would you do
I have an infant in the house.
I would have malice in my heart and a 12 gauge in my hands. I would tell their grieving families where they could find the word "sympathy" in the dictionary afterward. |

Re: what would you do
To tell the truth I don't know. If I saw gun I would shoot, no warning no bs just bang, ... until they were neutralized. I keep my doors locked at night so it would have to be some form of breaking and entering which I suspect would put me in fear for my life and my wife's which is reasonable cause in NH. The problem is regardless of the outcome it will be a financial drain defending yourself in court. Even if it is a justifiable shooting there are bound to be civil suits for shooting the poor misunderstood child that was simply in the wrong home.

Re: what would you do
Shoot, and make sure they were on my side of the door sill. Then I'd ask them, "what was it you wanted again? I didn't quite hear you."

Re: what would you do
Since I'm in New Jersey, I'd be obliged to help thlese find folks in carrying out my possibles - because they might be state officials - and then begging to shing their shoes or perform any other menial services they might require or desire.....Because I am a loyal, law abiding, servant of the State of New Jersey........
BTW....does the word "satire" ring any bells ? >MW |
