..well it's common sense..at least have a little courtesy before you kill someone..sheesh. you play way too much video games.

Courtesy for the person who wanted to rob/rape/kill you in your home? Courtesy for the person that, after you warn them, will probably go on to victimize a house with less protection than you? Do they really deserve that courtesy?

Kids in school get a worse punishment for their wrong doings while in time out.

Because it's a liberal message board. Same reason I get an "infraction" for calling someone a cuntwad when he is one.

Because ATOT thinks it's reasonable to assume that everyone is NOT armed and that it is your responsibility to give the intruder a sporting chance by correcting his mis-assumption. Otherwise the criminal broke into your house based on YOUR false pretenses, you lying little people-killer! How is that fair to him?

Sheesh people!

hey, you never know when you'll need a fully automatic machine gun to defend your house in the middle of a cornfield. :awe:

Have you not seen Children of the Corn?

Middle of a Cornfield = need multiple machine guns. I recommend one at each corner of the house, WW2 era Browning M2.

If I warn them, it's going to be harder to hit them. Plus, they might give up to me and that will make it more dangerous for me when the police arrive and I'm pointing a guy at a guy.

I would shoot the knees, no warning needed.

And then he would sue you and take everything you own. Or bankrupt you with legal fees.

You do not shoot to wound, you do not shoot to warn & you do not shoot to kill. You shoot to stop the imminent threat to you & your family. Fortunately, the targets you need to be aiming for are all vital organs. So the problem usually sorts itself out.

No pulse, no lawsuit. You may have to deal with the perps worthless relatives in court though.

You are missing overlapping fire then. All you would need to do is take down 1 gun and the other 3 are now useless.

I personally would not want to kill someone. So I'd make 100&#37; sure they are there for malice.

I will confront warn and ID threat if possible.

I take more risk on this way but I would not want to accidentally kill one of my sons friends or something crawling through window for slumber party.

lulz. You're fucking stupid if you don't think this is a liberal message board. Your own response about a personal death sentence shows you fit right in. My cuntwad comment simply shows that I'll call things as they are. It's funny to see grown men act as children though, that's something to masturbate to.
