In every instance I would call the police as there would have to be a report in order to claim the insurance,just recently we had leaflets delivered to our homes from the police informing us of several burglaries in this area and offering us a free crime prevention survey of our houses,we also have neighbour watch teams set up in our street.wave

naturally, these could be the actions of a hypothetical stranger, which could be met by controlled doubletaps from a Glock, or,

They could equally be the actions of a confused relative teenager on drugs, which would require a different response.

Here is what someone else did:

A 25-year-old Cleveland man shot and killed Arthur C. Buford, 15, after the boy tried to rob him, police said. Buford was shot in the chest at 8:30 p.m. Saturday and taken to MetroHealth Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead about an hour later, according to Cleveland police spokesman Thomas Stacho.

Buford and an accomplice reportedly robbed a man at gunpoint on the porch of his house near East 134th Street and Kinsman Road. Stacho said the robbery victim had just walked home from a nearby store. Stacho said the robbery victim, whose name was withheld, told police he pulled his own gun and shot the teenager, who staggered away and collapsed in the street.” (04/23/07)

Man Who Shot Teen On His Front Porch Will Not Face Charges

Sunday night, a day after Wells shot and killed a 15-year-old who threatened him with a gun on his porch, Wells' home was under siege. Now the doors and windows on his house are boarded up.

Damon Wells is the man gun supporters were imagining when they fought for the right to carry concealed weapons.

He had a permit to carry his gun, and he had the gun on him when a pair of teenage thieves approached him Saturday night on his front porch in Cleveland.

When one of the youths pulled a gun, Wells drew his and shot one of the boys several times in the chest, police said. Arthur Buford, 15, died after stumbling away and collapsing on a sidewalk near East 134th Street and Kinsman Road.

yawn Well you would HUNT THEM DOWN AND KILL THEM...

But there is another way of looking at it, If that were to happen to you, then it could be because you have incredibly BAD KARMA!!!

So you just get on with your life as best as you can...

Your next car will be New to you and your next home will become the object of NEW SECURETY FETURES...

Or you could do what I did and buy a 40,000 square foot Wharehouse and build yourself a super luxury condo in it and rent the rest of the building out to Law enforcement...rolling on the floor laughing

NOBODY EVER TRIES TO BREAK INTO THE COP SHOP!!! frustrated

dancing I am not responsable for the Blunders of The Tennents,
but for my own protection I do have 24 hour security systems that watch everything all the way around my property and backup power...wow

professor I also trust The Cops to do Incredibly stupid things at times...
So between me and them is a 10 inch tilt up wall, then I boxed 2" X 4" X1/4 Square tubing into a 24" X 24" lattice work and epoxy boleth that to the tiltup, then I insulated with 12" of R99 Then I framed with 6"X6"X 12 I Beam and made my self bullet proof with 4X20X6" Hot Roll of Which I welded in place...

I could gut my bunker and rent it out as a Vualt, but then I built it much beter than any vualt because I can and I like to...

But the Bottom line is if you build it right, you won't have problems...

Good Luck on your next project...angel

i do build them right
personally
i would have done cinderblock
fully engorged with concrete and re-bar
then with a space between
2x6 wall
fully insulated
for cooling and heating purposes
but the truth be known
matter of how much money is willing to be spent
and the roof is always the weakest point

scold Commercial and Industrial have a slightly different Standard, when it comes to 50, of 75,000 square feet of roof, your going to start seeing steel as a real good alturnative...

Week point???

Ever heard of Motion Detectors, or Exit Alarms...

I go first Class because I find it worth every penny...

My Cameras are just as clear at 3:am as they are at 1:pm The Cops will only act on what they can see...

This is why I have everything covered, you can't get on my roof without beeing seen, Fire Code requires that all rental units be sepperated by a floor to roof Fire Wall, that will be constructed of Non Cumbustable Steel Studs and 5/8 fire code on both sides mud and tape all the way up...

The Cop Shop went for drop celing, I build a full Monolithic Dome...

You wanna beak into my place from the top???

GOOD FREEK'N Luck Chuck, after I made a Bullet proof wall I back filled the space between their wall and my Dome will Ballistic Sand...

I have 1 way in and 3 ways out all secure, all on camera...

Fiberglass Insulation is Good But R-99 Non Combustive Foam is much better... grin

Yes, your a contractor...

But I was building this kind of stuff long before you wer born...

I was first a Carpinter,
then a Plumber, Then an Electrician, then I played in The MUD some with Drywall and Cement, Then I became an Iron Worker and after I retired, I go an engineering Degree and I started playing with what make this planet tick...

I found a long time that if you never want to hink about The Cop's , then live next door to their Cop Shop,

Because they never look or chit n their own back yard...grin

Because I have no rights I would hand it over to the cops. If I did catch them in my home the baseball bat would swing. To hell with rights.

But as with the other thread. The punishment is no deterent. So crime gets worse and worse.

The problems are simple enough to fix but we (society) don't want to give up our privelages.

Comunnism has a lot going for it. All for one and one for all.

And that is the theory of Communism not what we in the western world have seen put into practice.

legitimate defense(hope it's like this in english) only has to work when at the moment of the situation it's impossible to call the authorities to save your rights. So, it has to be used when you think you have to substitute the police to save your stuff.
The answer you give has to be proportional to his act...just like penalties tend to be.

Oh, i bet you would love to punch him
laugh
Do it, but only in order to tie him up so you can call the policeroll eyes

If the guy did while you were not around, just report the police...is this too gay?grin
