Woman Comes Home Finds Squatters On Her Bed - She Gets Assaulted

[American123]

This is why I like dogs.
If we take the dogs with us on a trip, when we get home, the dogs go in first. If we left the dogs home and they're not greeting us at the door. dear wife has phone ready to call 911 as I go in, at low ready.

Why even go in if you are legitimately concerned?

Why even go in if you are legitimately concerned?

Because 99 times out of 100 its nothing. Dogs sacked out in our bedroom or some other bonehead reason they didn't greet.

Isn't there a post up right now clamoring about evil Mexicans? So Jews aren't ok but the Mexicans are?


Thread 'The more illegals that cross, the more MONEY they can steal!! It is that simple, so it will never STOP for now.'

It isn't just Mexicans streaming across that border.

Murder hornets?

Slamming on Jews?

Doesn't matter the race or religion, stealing is stealing.

EDIT: All settlements (outposts) after Israel committed to the Oslo Accords (nearly 30 years ago) are illegal under international law. Some outposts are even illegal under Israeli law too. Just five years ago, Israel ironically passed a land-theft law that allows a squatter to steal your land if they just say they didn't know it belonged to someone else. As if there's a single inch of that region that isn't claimed by someone.

Humans have been fighting over territory and land as long as there's been humans. It's just amusing that some people find it trendy to single out Israel and the US and now Russia.

There's always someone else to blame.

1 - How did these 'unknown' persons know she was not at home?
2 - Can you up level the security if you rent?
3 - If you are traveling somewhere you can't possess, how can you re-arm before entering?
4 - Security / Camera system may have alerted her sooner than just getting home
5 - Friend/family to check on place, BUT go back to #1. Could they be the leak that let the bad actors in.

1. Tweakers and thieves observe their environment and look for opportunities to steal. All it takes is one of them to notice a mailbox overflowing with letters, windows that remain darkened day and night, or the same car parked in the same place for an extended period of time.

2. Yes, you can - alarm systems are cheap and easy to install. Some don't even require a monitoring charge - the system just alerts you when something happens and lets you decide whether to contact the police. It's not the only option. But it's the best way to get immediate awareness when someone enters your home. A doorbell cam is another good option.

3. A compact gun safe in the car would be an option, though you'd need to consciously make the decision to retrieve the gun prior to entering the home - a lot of people wouldn't bother and find themselves in the same situation as the victim. Another option would be a safe, hidden gun storage, or other weapon (like a baseball bat) near the front door so that it's immediately accessible on entry.

4. Answered in 2.

5. If your friends and family are associating with thieves and tweakers, probably best to keep them at arm's length.

Side note - I see a lot of emphasis on "having a gun" but the gun is just a tool. We're surrounded by weapons every day of our lives, the gun just happens to be the most effective. If your entire personal protection strategy relies on having access to a firearm, IMO you only have half of a strategy.

Gotta wonder what some liberal DA might charge her with for bothering those poor squatters. The nerve of some people...

I have always called this the "maid issue"

Would your cleaning lady steal from you? No. She's a worker. But she might tell her cousin/friend that she has a client with real nice stuff and the cousin/friends boyfriend/brother might have a different morality.
