“it is not wise to trust one’s life to the hope that a violent burglar will flee upon hearing an alarm. “

But the Brinks commercials always show it that way.

Perp may not have been the best example, though. Sounds seriously dim. They say that the sound of a shotgun chambering a shell is the best burglar-repellent there is, but Einstein here seems not to have gotten the message.

Better article and video at:

http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=news/local&id=7201121

The homeowner is a retired cop and carries a Glock for self defense. Both he and his wife have taught firearms training. There are some very good quotes in both the video and the article, but the wife sums it up best when she says, "Don't mess with us."

“There must be parts of Houston that are peaceful.”

I’d like to know where. Considering that I live behind steel gates and window bars, any burglar that enters my house will be presumed violent and will be shot, after my dogs soften him up a bit.

When seconds count, the Police are minutes away...

Nice shootin’ Tex!

Good call on the missus too. “...grab the shotgun...” sets the tone for the rest of the engagement.

Another Wednesday feel-good.

Did this yute have a passport from Louisiana? The home owner did his job to the best of his ability thanks to their alarm. If our alarm went off the sto-pid company would probably call us and ask us if we’re OK.
