Silly boy, he should have knocked on the door and asked politely if he could come in. Kick the door down is asking for trouble!
Good one Mr. Jones Cool

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Yea, kicking in the door isn't considered a very polite way to knock on someones door. People tend to think it's a bit rude and that the person is up to no good. Roll Eyes

Veterans especially tend to take a dim view of people kicking in doors and can tend to return fire w/o asking any questions. God knows if they come through my front door in like manner; they won't live long enough to kiss their ass's goodbye. Wink

Hopefully the other two learned a lesson and won't end up the same way. Roll Eyes

You only need a gun once. Good for him. Can't imagine what it's like to have a home invasion. Be prepared.

Rom, if someone did that at your place and threatened Lynn I'd imagine reading a news article about the police being bemused by how to remove the scrote from the ceiling whilst not leaving their scrotum left up there due to the several hundred blunt, rusty nails holding them in place Grin

Well sitting just above my computer is a full set of Samurai swords that I know how to use quite well. So becoming a Unick is a definitely a possibility..... Grin

Come to think about it; I have more edged weapons than firearms. Shocked

Lucky for them Kentucky is soft on crime.

Felony murder rule (Kentucky)

In the state of Kentucky, the common law felony murder rule has been completely abolished.

A bad day at golf is better than a good day at work.

I too have a couple of swords above my computer. I also have 15 reasons (with #16 in the chamber) holstered to a tactical sling on my headboard as to why nobody better come and kick in my door....

You guys are doing it all wrong, I've got a kitchen. More sharp and blunt implements of death and maiming than even a sadistic torturer could dream of.
And they're ALL legal to own. Heaven help the burglar that comes round my place intent on trouble. The police will wet themselves laughing about the egg whisk Grin

LMAO....you ain't right..... Grin

I also am in position of a kitchen complete with meat clever and a wicked meat tenderizer. As well as a vast variety of knives, meat forks and a BBQ spatula to spank any unruly children.... Shocked

My wife is well versed in the use of a marble rolling pin and was trained by my beloved grandmother in the deadly art of cast iron skillets upside the head.... Grin

The cast iron skillet should be outlawed under the Geneva Convention Grin
