A friends Home Invasion

[Trick Pony]

Forgetting his Glock in the nightstand, your friend is just lucky it wasn't a real home invasion robbery where the perp had a gun in hand ready to use it.

several years ago a dumbass that lived up the street from me when I lived with my parents did the same thing one night around midnight when I was in basic training....my dad ALMOST blew his head off with a 12 guage but figured out quickly that he was trashed and told him to get the fuck off his property. About 2 years later the same dumbass did the same thing at another house but was arrested and charged with home invasion...last time I heard about him he was being released from prison. He's lucky he's alive.

We had one wonder into the wrong house and the owner unloaded errrrr I think in the teens rounds wise on him.

That is crazy. Two things that would make it hard for me not to have shot the guy are, 1) he is breaking in to the house, 2) kid being in the mix. I think instantly that I would go nuts thinking the worst. That guy is lucky he is alive, plain and simple.

didn't some guy shoot his own 13-14 yr old son a few years ago when the son was sneaking back into the house after being out all night? how would you like to live with that?

[Dan03mach]

now that would really suck but the son should have known that pops would put two in his ass thinking he was a burgler .

I can relate to that. My dad met me in the hall way one night with his .357 in hand back in high school. We had a little talk and I never snuck out again.

Oh I am so putting this in my future parenting book. I figure an empty pump action being racked ought to leave a lasting impression.

Breaking down the front door of your "own" house? I've been drunk, but not that drunk.

If the guy was unarmed, I'd have a really hard time shooting him, he would have to be threatening in some way. Very traumatizing for sure, but not worth a guys life, you might get away with it in court, but something like that would weigh on my mind forever.

In think that in this case, forgetting the pistol was a good thing.

You spent too much time in Kali and became pussified. I would not lose any sleep what so ever taking out the trash. When the time comes to protect my family, there shall be no questions of what I should have done.

I don't think I'd have trouble killing a guy that breaks in and I perceive to threaten my safety. I think I would have trouble dealing with the fact that I killed a guy that ultimately didn't pose a threat, regardless of my mindset at the time I pulled the trigger.

That's pretty much it Tony. Commiefornia has nothing to do with it, I've always thought it not a good thing to take another life, unless I was in grave danger. It may be "legal" in certain circumstances, but there are definitely situations like this that I'd rather have not killed someone.

Kinda like the thread on the porch with all the black kids beating on cars. The gut reaction here is "shoot 'em," but a few dents and dings aren't worth dealing with taking another human life.

Perhaps I value the lives of stangers a little more than most, it has nothing to do with being on the left coast.

damn, that is one lucky drunk!

if i woke up to someone in my house i would shoot first if it was dark. if there is light and i can see he is drunk i would at gunpoint force him to the ground until the cops get there

fuck taking chances

Drunks don't give a shit about a gun.
