Hey y'all, just joined this forum a couple days ago, so this event took place a while ago.
On Easter of 2009 around 10:00pm after I got back from driving my grandmother home, we started receiving phone calls from a guy named Michael. Now my parents and I knew who Michael was, long story short, he was living with my sister who was a diehard alcoholic that we had to kick out of the house.
Anyway, my dad answers the phone, and Michael who was probably intoxicated begins yelling, swearing, and threatning to come over here and tare him apart "like a deer". He called and threatened to drive over here three times and a fourth time called randomly and said, "When the whip comes down, it comes down hard!" then hung up.
Well, folks, one thing Michael didn't know is that I had made the honorable purchase of a Century Arms WASR 7.62x39 semiautomatic rifle earlier that year, so I was ready.
Either way, my dad contacted the police, and the sheriff took over 20 minutes to get to our house because he had issues to deal with across the county. And he only stayed for about 10 minutes.
The good news is, Michael never showed up and was all talk, and I had stayed awake and on guard until 7:00am with my rifle to make sure of that.
But the lesson learned is that as awesome as the police are, they cannot be our 24/7 personal protection against those who wish us harm.
