lol. You cant help me. This is true. I am laughing at me, not you. I do want to say I speak from some experience. Not really applicable here but, about 20 years ago I was alone in the middle of the day. My husband was at work. I heard someone jump our privacy fence. In a short time. I heard the patio door open and a hand parted the verticle blinds. There, crouched down, was a man. By that time, I had a .44 magnum pointed at him. I said, I suggest you not come in here. He froze. At that time, I started calling my husband’s name, even tho he was not there, I wanted him to think a man was in the house. (As tho a woman holding a .44 was not scary enough.)...He ran. Jumped the fence. He was gone. I called the police. Never did it enter my mind to pursue him or shoot him. At that time, tho it did not enter into my decision, we did not have the Castle Doctrine in Texas. It was pure instinct. There was no reason to shoot him. Had he continued to enter the house, yes. I would have shot him because I would know he had seen me, seen the gun. And yet he was entering anyway wishing me nothing but harm. Was I wrong? In your opinion?
