Title: Another Reason to Keep Your Gun Within Reach at Home
Post by: Ben on March 21, 2017, 09:02:35 PM

Home invader gets a little more than he bargained for. Pretty brazen with the parking on the lawn and all that monkeying around he did before he got to kicking.

PS to the MSM: When someone is home, it's not a burglary, it's a home invasion. In Ben's World, it's ALWAYS a home invasion.

Am I the only one who has trouble with Twitchy links?

I usually have to go find stuff relating to Twitchy vids on other sites.

Anyhow, I found this one, don't know if this is the one Ben's citing:

Good ole Carla.


Amusing sidelight, ca 1965.
I found someone trying to start my car out in the street.  Got out my Colt New Service revolvolator with .45 ballon head cases stuffed to the gills with 2400, went out and courteously advised him that was not advisable.  He politely got out and walked down the street, his cowboy boots going click- click- click on the pavement.  I plunked one down into the lawn near where I stood.  It echoed off the Flatirons mountains like an artillery shell.

It went down like this.  Click- click- clickBOOM!clickclickclickclickclick.

Hey.  A warning shot worked there, too.

Well, I guess you couldn't call it a warning shot since he was retreating.  Maybe an "educational" shot would be better..

In fact one more at that local TV station URL. This one at 8:30 in the morning. Homeowner did the Joe Biden routine though. Seems like  this TV station is an ad for not moving to the Miami area.  :laugh:

Better illumination on some of those surveillance camera setups would be nice.  Seems like extraneous outside light seems to swamp the cameras in a lot of cases.

Thanks for the extra clips, Ben.
