1) I hope you’re armed.
2) When are you moving?
Alas, many of us go through similar situations. My neighborhood is on the decline (thanks to liberalism and the entitlement mentality), and it’s not unusual, especially in the summer, to hear gunfire somewhere up the street. Several weeks ago, a dead body was found under the back porch of a duplex that adjoins my backyard. And yes, we have home invasions (which is one of many reasons why I won’t answer the census — don’t want anyone to know I live alone so they can invade my house).
I’d like to get out of here, but fact is you can have these crimes just about anywhere, even in the so-called better comunities.
dude, what kinda neighborhood are you in? meth cooking, shaken babies, police raids?
I hear that there are some bad parts of Tusla that resemble Ft Worth. lol
Scary stuff though. No?
I witnessed a similar thing years ago where I lived, copmplete with the “get back inside!”.
That’s when you start looking at your walls and thinking “vinyl siding, 1/2” sheathing, some drywall...”
We moved a few years later, and we’re happy where we are now.
Sometimes it just ain’t worth it.
Remind me to NOT let this guy pick my next house.
I got a very curt "Get back inside!"
They trespassed on your property and started ordering you around?
Freakin' thugs. Sue 'em.
Glad to hear your dogs survived. That's rare these days.
I'm guessing not.
Not real advisable to be standing at the window watching a bunch of armed men running towards a potential/probable gun battle “right next door”. Live, real-world SRT operations are not generally very bystander friendly.
I'm sure it was exciting to watch it unfold an all, but most bullets have little regard for siding and sheetrock, let alone glass.
It'd be a waste of a perfectly good Freeper....
Having been on raids multiple times, this sounds pretty accurate. Just because a neighbor screwed up doesn’t mean your neighborhood is a gonner.
Twice, Our neighborhood has gone into “Lockdown” because of a Viet Vet who barricades himself with his shotguns. (Thank You for your Service, Dear brother, BUT PLEASE TAKE YOUR MEDS)
In our area, the police do a “Reverse 911” call to everybody to go to the back of the house and lie down on the floor when this happens, and keep the kids away from the windows.
