Yeah, why did your dad keep telling him there was more money?

I'm not going to say anything about fighting back, I guess he was afraid for his kids. An armed citizen could have put a stop to that situation. I guess he didn't want to endanger the kids anyways.

What a crazy thing to happen.

When you feel your family is at risk, you probably don't think "he doesn't know I have more money"...you're probably thinking more along the lines of "if I make him happy, he'll leave my family alone."

Ditto.

His father just wasn't thinking 'properly' and that is fully understandable in that situation.

Glad everyone is okay and hope the cops bust that scumbag.

Fvck, I know it's not politically correct, but hell, I'm not building a very good track record here. I had no experience at all with black people before I moved to Sacramento. There just weren't any black people where I grew up, but now... sh!t.

I hear you loud and clear.
My grandfather was murdered by a black p.o.s. who used the crackhead daughter of the lady who used to clean his house she was also black to get him to disarm and open the security door.. There were 2 more people with them also black, 1 male , 1 female under 18. The guy who hit him and dragged him around the house died in jail recently.
My grandfather died after they took off from a massive coronary. He probably was so pissed off that he let this punk get the drop on him. Before robbing him, this mistake of DNA, dragged him from room to room forceing him to open drawers to prove there was no secret stash of cash.
The black cvnt who tricked him into putting his pistol away and to let her have a drink of water is still in . At first she wanted some JACK DaNIELs that he used to hide from my Uncle , under the sink. The youngest girl is the only one eligble for parole in this decade, iirc.
These murdering thieves robbed another person that night and tried several others before slithering underground for two weeks.
They busted the case when a State Run Liquor store operater reported that one of their clients had just started making a lot of purchases of Liquor with change. Lots and lots of Change. They had stolen an old moonshine jug he would fill with change he would buy from the bank, just to let my nephews reroll it and keep it. Her prints were all over it. She squealed on the rest of them like the little rat-pig she is. They rooted him out of an abandoned house out in the woods of rural South Carolina, where he had been holed up, smokin his crack and living like a dog.
He walked into the Pen , bragging how he was a Murderer , so watch out. One of the guards there, who knows my brother, told a few of the older inmates what the FACTS were. It is possible to be a bad ass murderer and still be punked out in prison, despite what one may have heard.

I'm so glad to hear your family is alright. This guy is obviously on the revolving door plan and will be caught when all your discriptions are in and vetted. You're dad and you guys was smart... only takes milliseconds to pull a trigger.

Get dogs... I have three big dogs. If he's stupid enough to proceed on the property after all the barking and howling, unlikly there are easier targets.. He then has to take the time to shoot them first off his neck while I'm grabbing a street sweeper or a pistol. I've never locked my doors and leave the keys in the ignition to all my cars since after college..no problems in 10 years....Lucky or just insured?

 

[edro]

I could say something about having a gun in the house... but with the guy holding your sister hostage, I wouldn't have pulled out a gun even if I had one under my pillow.

 

[Atomicus]

Bill Cosby was right on the money when he said that black kids are raised up messed up and all.

Glad you're ok

 

[Turin39789]

Your dad did the absolutely right thing, there isn't a sane MAN alive that would have tried anything with his sister/daughters life on the line like that.
Glad everyone is okay and hope that this one incident doesn't change too much for your families life.



Has no one on anandtech been robbed by a white person before?

 

[Gooberlx2]

jesus.....glad you and your fam are ok. I would've done the same thing as your dad. It's easier to get out alive if the guy is happy with his take.

I hope they catch that piece of sh!t.

 

[3chordcharlie]

Yeah not just your dad, but your whole family did the right thing here. When you're put in a position of no power, you have to accept it and try to get everyone out safe, and that's exactly what your family did.

Glad everyone is okay.

Sometimes a crime might be prevented by owning a weapon, but I think in this case two guns would be many times more likely to end up with someone dead than one, and he had his out first...

Dogs are a great thing to have to prevent break-ins, and they don't even have to be big (they just have to sound big). We have two collies and my house and the four immediate neighbors are the biggest block of houses in my neighborhood to have never had a break in in the 25 years since they were built. At least one of these houses has had a good-sized dog for that entire period. I don't think they would have prevented the sort of invasion your family suffered though, there's really nothing you can do to prevent it unless you want to live behind a wall all the time.

You know I feel bad for both of you. Notfred im sad you feel like this because I am black. You know I have had alot of white men do very bad things to me in my life. However I dont say Im a racist because I know that there are great number of white mem who are honest and hard working. There are also allot of black men who do not rob,kill etc. So please do not put us all in one group. The reason I say this is because it makes you ignorant to those who arent asshats. As far as bad people are concerned they come in all shapes sizes and colors.

 

[Rufio]

damn

your dad did a good thing , getting him way from the family and trying to make him happy.

glad you guys are all ok -- it's just money and jewelery that's gone...

 

[JimRaynor]

damn.. good that everyone is ok.

seeing how someone slapped the gun in his hand he probably wasn't going to do anything... BUT.. Your dad definitely did the right thing keeping him happy and by doing so kept you all safe. Get him something nice for his birthday.

A helicoptor showed up for a simple house robbery?

Armed hostage taking is a little beyond 'simple robbery'.

 

[illustri]

Now that you're all safe, will insurance take care of the losses?

Ahh, I didn't see he lived in LA. The only helicoptors that show up here in Dallas for anything are the news helicoptors. Including but not limited to hostage standoffs, police shootouts, etc.

Thats it, I'm moving to Canada!

What a crazy thing to happen.

I dont think a confrontation would be the best thing in this case (gun to someone's hand). Though if something like that happened at my house, the guy would get some .308 love from either my bro or myself.

You aren't experiencing anything unique. Lower social classes and minorities commit more crime per capita. The question is why.

My dad got robbed by two black kids in a local super market parking lot.

man, im sooo glad we are all safe. he could have taken everything and i would have cared.. im only afraid that now he saw the computer stuff, the big screen and entertainment system. i just hope he never comes back and is caught.

get an alarm one like ADT push a button cops there in no time, also prevents breakins swhen your not home, hard to get away with comps and such that way

Get a doberman pincher. I have one 103lbs inside dog (they are very well behaved.) He will cuddle the cats and kill on command. He costs a little more than ADT but even they cannot beat his response time.
