Home Invasion Attempt in Canton

[redfish414]

Yes, they were home. Watching TV on the couch.

Perps immediately fled. No ID.

Kicked the door in and hinges out of the frame. Pretty big "kid" if it was one.

My friend is a .45 fan.

They are very lucky they chose to flee.

I remember a couple years ago a guy making a post about "staging guns" around the house . At that time I thought about it as "paranoia" or just ridiculous. I would say at any one time now in my house I am no longer than 3 seconds from holding one in my hand.

That ol' shotgun over Grandpa's fireplace wasn't just for show ya' know...

I grew up this way. Even as a kid, I knew where to get a gun within seconds. I could go into just about any room in the house and arm myself if need be and they were not easy for a perp to find.

Nowadays, DFCS will come in and take your kids for doing it that way. Seems to me like we were safer back then. But hey, as soon as the police hear that first kick of the door they'll be there, right?

Thank god I have no kids to worry about . Just a couple cats and lots of other roommates in various calibers

Where is Fieldstone? I'm in Bridgemill.

Just around the corner from you, on Knox Bridge. Pretty close to home.

Fieldstone is adjacent to RiverGreen on HWY 20

Damn. I'm off of 20 going towards cumming. Glad they didn't make it in.

After talking with the wife about this, what would happen if after the second kick or so,someone sent a few rounds through said door? Either hitting or not the threat?

Dang, dude! Did you move into the ghetto without knowing it? I've been to your place, and it's not the least bit sketchy...

Never, ever fire at what you cannot see. Even if it is kicking in the door. Stand there patiently, and blast its ass when the first foot hits the floor inside your home. Shoot to kill...not to wound and detain. There will be a police investigation, but dead men don't talk so the story will be yours to tell.
