Wow, you guys sound like a bunch of wimpy paranoid scaredy cats. Shoot him? Beat him? Pffft. How about acting like a manb and tell the guy to leave or you'll call the police. Responding to the guy with fists and violence is what gets family members killed and innocent people shot. The whole "I'm Mr. Tough Guy" thing says a few things: small penis, small ego, small mind.
Precisely. Half-assed punks are far more plentiful than real thieves. A truly determined thief could figure a way into nearly any residence. Fortunately, most aren't willing to go to much effort. They'd sooner just look for the houses or cars that aren't locked.Originally posted by: pnad
Sure I *could* leave my doors unlocked but why?
A locked door is no deterrent for a real thief. It is however a deterrent for a half-assed punk looking for a quick/easy grab.

somewhat similar situation happened to me. I parked at an old apartment (really a big old house made into 4 apartments) and as my wife and i were getting out of the car we spotted a cornered raccoon. so we just slammed the doors and ran up the stairs. never occured to me we left the doors unlocked, was an old 1993 Tercel with no key fob to lock the doors, and no automatic locks
After we go to bed, the guys in the apartment below us call me and say someone was in my car. Grabbed baseball bat, and looked over the deck. Sure enough, passed out frat boy in the passenger seat of my car with the door wide open. We call the cops, they rouse him up and he pukes MAINLY out the door. Cops ask if we have something to clean it up with, and we bring down some 409 and a roll of paper towels and they make him clean it up to our liking
Turns out he was the president of a frat that had been kicked off campus the year before and were renting a house next door to us. He got taken away in the paddy wagon, which was quite a site once the frat boys in the house next door say him sitting on the curb in cuffs.
You showed him! Why didnt you just wake him up yourself and tell him to get the hell out of your car? The police didnt need to be involved at all. Hes drunk and sleeping. Hes obviously harmless
I swear people have no balls anymore. Its not that hard to talk to someone.
Yes, getting woken up out of bed at 2am means you are thinking completely rationally, and walking down 3 flights of stairs to confront a stranger that is in your car is a GREAT idea! At the time I didn't realize it was a passed out frat boy, looking down from 3 stories could have been anyone

Dude. HES. NOT. MOVING. Why would someone who is robbing you be SLEEPING in your car? Instead of thinking it might of been a dead body (these do not move) or someone sleeping (this doesnt move either), you instead thought it was a moving, breathing BAD GUY thats OUT TO GET YOU.
By using deductive reasoning you could definitely realize its just some drunk sleeping. Why would someone who is stealing a car or stealing stuff be sleeping in the car?
And by you calling him a "frat boy" makes it more obvious because you live by a college where there is an influx of drunken college kids. So whats more likely in your car? A robber that DOESNT MOVE, or a drunk college kid who passed out there

DrPizza and others... can you explain the motivation for leaving doors unlocked? If people are regularly stopping by ala Kramer from Seinfeld I could understand it. Otherwise it just seems like unnecessary risk to me, and teaching children a habit which in many locations would be bad and unsafe.
Of course, one point that could be made is that locking doors isn't useful if the door lock is flimsy and can be kicked in (which is often true).
Actually, I think the question is: can you explain the motivation for bothering to lock the doors? Why are you so paranoid? Do you envision that people are going around your neighborhood, door to door every night, looking for the doors that are unlocked? If so, your neighborhood sucks. Are your doors locked 24/7, or do you think that someone will break in only when you're sleeping? "Okay, kids, go play in the back yard, but take your keys with you because I'm locking the door!"

Thanks, I'll add another one for good measure. :roll:
someone figure out where cheezy321 lives, get your gun, then get there at 2am. Go break into his car, make sure the only way he can see you is from a straight down view, and pretend you're asleep. When he comes down to serve you soup and give you a back rub, rob him!
