Whoops, wrong house.
 
Why don't you ask Loogy to help you get your NG reader squared away.
It's obvious that harry doesn't want to help you. Some friend eh?

Knew a local guy like that.. he could convince strangers of almost anything while we stood bacn and were amused.
He had a great story of how he saved the life of another buddy of ours (bull****) and how he did overseas during the VietNam war.
Of course, he was a hero.. ~~Snerk~~

Entering someone else's through a rear window? Give me a break.


Would you have offered him tea and cookies?






Imagine what a schmuck you'd feel like if you didn't give the kid 10


seconds to explain himself and found that you'd just shot your


neighbor's kid who was too drunk to know the difference between


houses.






You want to carry that kind of weight around for the rest of your


life, like your compatriots here?






Ya'll put up a brave face but I have to wonder how many nights you'd


sit awake wondering how that kid's father and mother feel.






The callous responses here are astounding. Christians, no doubt.






-------------------------------------










Castle laws may give you legal authority but I'd have to be more


convinced that the intruder was an immediate threat to me or my


wife


before I'd open fire. Shooting someone is pretty serious stuff.




Depending on his motives, you might not have much time to make up your


mind.


But according to harry, it's a no brainer.




According to everything harry has said over the years, the kid would


have been dead at his home too...






I don't shoot in the dark, d.f. If an obviously drunk kid broke in and


he wasn't wielding any sort of weapon, I'd simply get him down on the


floor and call the police.




Now, if the intruder were a short little greasy **** adult male who


broke in and he looked like you, I'd assume it was a home invasion and


act accordingly.




It's dark. Your alarm is going off because someone broke in. He's walking up the staircase. You


don't know it's a kid, and you don't know he's drunk, and you don't know if he does or doesn't have


a weapon. You yell and fire a warning shot. The guy keeps coming.




....and now you simply get him down on the floor and call the police.




Right.

'Name-calling'...the liberals' last resort.






Well, if you are lucky enough to be upstairs with your family you yell


down the stairs. "we up here are armed, the police have been called, if


you come up the stairs, you will be shot"... Then if they come up the


stairs still, you defend your family.




You have to use reasonable force. Like the cops say, "we treat you the


way you ask to be treated".




The time the guy tried to walk into my house at about 1am I had a


baseball bat. I crossed it up in two hands and slammed him up under the


rib cage when he reached for what I thought might be a weapon in his


coat pocket. He flew off the porch and was still laying there when the


cops came, I think I broke his ribs. Either way, if he had gotten back


up I would have held it like a baseball bat and swung for the fence, but


"he didn't ask for that"...




Yeah, sure....... You wouldn't lie, would you?

You are a gun-crazy left winger.
How do you make your lights no"on"?

Looks like this drunk teen tried to get in a house just two doors from

spare time volunteering to help others."

The kid wasn't armed, was drunk and a neighbor from two doors down.

This is what Merika has come to...


At 2:30 a.m., how is a homeowner supposed to know that an intruder is unarmed, and when the intruder is six feet tall, what difference does that make?

The kid lived "just two doors down," in a flop house with transient residents the rest of the neighbors wouldn't recognize either.

Here's what happens to homeowners who live in liberal paradises where they're not able to own guns for self-defense.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/...l?tid=obinsite

When the burglar alarm is ringing, a large male is coming up the stairs, and you're not Chuck Norris, my advice to you is: pull the trigger. Stop blaming America for the actions of irresponsible people -- in this case, the intoxicated teen, his friends, and his parents.


Merika, where we shoot first and ask questions later.


Nobody said that... you are still nothing but a liar. Now tell us why
your guns were taken away? Did you have an incident?


Well, I'm not a liar but I do assume that whatever mental illness you
have is forcing you to project your own habits onto others.

I sold the one gun I ever owned more than 30 years ago. Who took your
guns away, your mom?

I was telling you what was in the news.

"The homeowner heard his burglar alarm sound, grabbed his gun and went to investigate. When the two
met on the stairs inside the house, the man said he told the teen to leave and fired a warning shot,
according to a law enforcement official with knowledge of the investigation.

Caleb didn?t stop, and the home-owner fired again, striking and killing the teen, the official
said."

So obviously the teen 'already knew, drunk or not, that he wasn't at home.'

It's hard to believe you didn't cut'n'paste this story yourself.

So the whole point is that this guy probably saved his families lives
with the gun... no wonder JPS is so against the guy. What a bunch of
bull****.


So only a gun would have saved his family? What an idiot. I can save my
family with a simple thing found in about any hardware store, something
a cop told me about a LONG time ago. Wasp spray. Better than mace or
pepper spray for at home use because it shoots about 20 feet. But then
the Christian way is to kill the person, got it.

You don't know that at all...


But do make it up as you go along, just like the Zimmerman case... Or
Sharpton/Brawley..

My take away from Zimmerman is even if you are right and the shooting
is justified, it still may cost you $300,000 to stay out of jail.



My takeaway is that if you are part of some sort of neighborhood watch,
and you aren't supposed to be "watching" with a gun, well, you shouldn't
be. My takeaway is that if Zimmerman didn't have his gun handy, he
wouldn't have so aggressively pursued the kid and escalated a situation
into a homicide.

Well, he might have stabbed him... repeatedly.


Or he would be dead as Martin said he was going to do....


So, now you're claiming that Martin was stalking Zimmer**** and not
the other way around??


Sure, FOX said so.

----------------------------------------------

If you ever actually used it against a person, you might find yourself
in a shaky legal position. There's much controversy about "arming"
yourself with a can of wasp or bee killer because, as it states on the
label, it is a federal offense to use it in a manner or purpose for
which it is not intended. That includes spraying it at or on a human
being.

You might save yourself or your family but find yourself being sued by
the intruder or brought up on federal charges .... and it might stick.

Pepper spray and mace are products specifically designed for personal
self defense. In my state you must have a permit to purchase and own
them.
It's perfectly legal within the castle laws to use them, if necessary.
It's not that clear regarding wasp spray.

That would be easy... all you have to do is claim you saw a wasp. Oh
really? A white guy isn't a wasp? Well, it's hard to tell.

You might save yourself or your family but find yourself being sued by
the intruder or brought up on federal charges .... and it might stick.


Federal charges? Seriously? I can just imagine the judge getting a
good laugh at that one... so, you think this is the best use of the
court? Guess what? He WAS a wasp!
