"One of the men then put a gun to the neck of the 13-year-old. It went off, but the bullet missed the boy. After the gunshot, the men fled."
Wow. I mean: Wow.
First of all: I NEVER (with no extension of the truth) answer the door without my gun. Let me just say it one more time for 'effect'... I NEVER ANSWER THE DOOR WITHOUT MY GUN.
In my Nomadic life, I have read too many stories like this in many cities. No freakin' way. I swear i will always be on my guard for a home invasion. It is the most cowardice thing to do, invade ones home. No warning, no prep. Hell no.
I know i am turnin' up the pressure cooker a bit: but i seriously have though through this scenario way too many times. i REALLY want to prevent something like that form happening to me, inclusive of my homestead. I'm sure if something were to label me as obsessive, it really would be this. theres some truth for ya'll.
