I'm not sure what I'd do tbh. I posted earlier it really would depend on the situation and how much I was backed in to a corner. Most ****s that rob homes are opportunists and don't want any confrontation. Fck knows if they'd run off or want to take it further.
They're also robbing bastards. My motto is, any **** robbing you these days will have at least a knife. So be it..Meet Mr meat cleaver.
they are robbing ****s, and unless they've scouted it, they don't know what to expect. so are most likely armed.
I'm insured up to the hilt and honestly couldn't care about any possessions. It's not like 20 years ago when you can walk around a house and take plenty of items to easily sell (CD's, videos, TV's, etc) as most stuff now just doesn't have a high resale value. If they come upstairs and start going through bedrooms then that's different but I doubt many will. The opportunists wont have the balls for it and the hardened criminals don't actually want that hassle. There was a spate of robberies (nationwide) in which it became a tactic to basically threaten the children at knife-point for the parents to hand over car keys, nothing you do in that situation will prevent your child from being scarred for life. We leave our car keys in a bowl by the front door - steal my car and I'll just claim it on insurance; threaten my family and whatever course of action I then take I've already lost. I'm really not a materialistic person though so it's all very easy.
Met a boat load of criminals (used to work as duty solicitor in a police station in Bootle in my mid-20's) but not been victim to much crime no. Most of my stories involving criminals in my own life are more amusing than tragic...
Ofc mate, it's late. Actually, **** it is late! Night. I'll drag out a few stories for tomorrow, mostly they're probably just amusing to me though.
Tell youbwhat, been robbed more in 15 years in Shropshire than my parents had living 32 years in Liverpool.
The best way to deal with a burglar is to bum them savagely into a dripping, bloody mess. They won’t grass to the feds, they won’t tell their mates and they certainly won’t come back. On the off chance that you find yourself bumming a gay burglar (you’ll know cos he’ll get a stiffy) just tut at him and tell him he’s a bit fat and he will feel really sad and probably kill himself on the way home. There really should be no need for violence.
I've had one I chased them away with a samurai sword in my boxer shorts True story One nearly opted not to run I **** myself but he didn't make me decapitate him and lose my freedom thankfully
It used to be a thing for burglars to take a **** on the floor after turning your house upside down. Enjoy that thought
One of my coworkers showed me video from a camera on her driveway. Guy in face mask and hat casually walking up driveway at three am. Glances over at camera a few times... Casually opens her car door (not locked) rumages through car a few minutes, doesn't find anything so casually strolls over to neighbour's house (who also caught him on camera. Her car was locked though so he walked on over to next house).
What I find amusing is, I recently bought a doorbell camera that works with my home security system. After installing doorbell I realised that all you had to do to steal the door bell is slide it off the install rail and unhook the wire coupling. Not even a screw to undo. You could literally slip the $150 camera off and run off with it in 15 seconds. Sure, you'd be caught on the doorbell camera doing so but if you wear a mask it's no big deal.
