You not only defended the VDS family, you went further and said you would have kicked them off your property.
How come you are allowed to call this family petty, vigilante, self absorbed, etc. and when someone says you have no heart, you are offended.
A piece of work you are.
You fail to recognize that the people inside the house have NO idea who is outside or what the hell they want. Somehow the idea that a PO is with them makes it 'OK'. To some. The person inside doesn't necessarily know A. That a police officer is there; B. If the person in a uniform is a real police officer; C. If the PO is arresting the people making the disturbance. All you know is that there is an adversarial situation in your front yard and that it is happening right now. And that is not a situation where a Welcome mat gets rolled out.
To understand this, you can't look at it with 20/20 hindsight. You have to try to see it as it was happening.
