My house was burglarized.....sort of

DesignatedMarksman
10-06-2006, 05:36
I was away at work. They let themselves in (One person was here, "k", sleeping) they screwdrivered the lock to my parents door, went past the loaded shotgun, looked around, looked through the closet, took hyrdocodien, imitrax, pain meds, etc, bottle of wine, then 2 of my three boxes of xm193 5.56 ammo. (That pissed me off-that stuff is 5$ a box! DAMN!).

Item used to open my parents door? The common burglar tool of choice, screwdriver. Tool used to try and open my door? Boot.

All guns are accounted for....

I'll post pics of some of the carnage later.

So you have a loaded shotgun and assault ammunition just lying around in the house?

Isn't that sort of...well...risky? Like with your average burglary, as this one was, when no one is actually there to resist and do all the shootin' and stuff?
Like...couldn't the buglars steal guns or ammunition?

What's assault ammunition?

Ammo's in ammo cans in the closet, guns are the only things locked up. There's just not room for everything. I've told my dad to get a safe, but nevertheless he does not get one. The shotgun is behind a locked door, obviously not good enough.

I am suspicious though.....why would someone walk past a never fired shotgun but take painmeds?

Druggie? Beats me.

Yea, basically. You have to have a lincese that you own it to sell the gun, but drugs you can use or jsut sell.

You make me laugh, or cry. I doubt if you're going to sell drugs on the street that you care about having the proper papers to sell guns as well.

A gun is bulky to smuggle past your mom, drugs hide in your pockets and make lots of money from your friends. I might of picked the gun up while I snooped, but I doubt it would of came home with me. But if it did, you can bet I'd have a mean looking sawed-off a few hours later.

A gun is a MUCH harsher sentence, especially when you're trying to sell it-much less just getting caught with it. Can't rightly dump it out a window when you're getting pulled over. Gun is way more hassle, the drugs are either fun and/or profit. Unless you masterbate over fire arms or are specificly looking to arm up the guns will always be a pass.

Nah, you don't have to have anything to sell a gun. I've done it before, both sides. If someone asks to see your ID but doesn't show a badge, walk away. ATF informant.

Pain meds have been recovered and accounted for. Discovered the perp. Case closed. Still no word on the missing two boxes of ammo though. That's sort of a speciality ammo......

Negative. It was my little sister angry over losing her boyfriend to another girl (He got tired of dealing with a drama queen) and was planning to use the drugs to compensate for her unhappiness....after she found out we knew she tried to slit her wrists. EMS/SD came and now she's being evaluated. Lots can happen in a short time.

I dunno.. I've prevented a robbery/possible robbery with a shotgun.. Most people never have to, so I wouldn't argue that owning one is absolutely necessary, but they do work in a lot of cases. It helps if someone is home/awake, and if the theif is an actual theif rather than an upset sibling though, I'd imagine.

Most of the time, a victim of burgalisation is someone that has been watched for weeks. They know if you have a firearm, they know what you've got and where it is.

Rarely is anyone a victim of "random breakins" anymore.

The Supreme Court is surprisingly hostile toward that kind of thing, unfortunately. :p

As for robberies, I'm not up to date on the latest stats, but I'm sure the odds of a Panamanian death squad storming your house at 3a.m. are pretty low, sure. It's helpful to keep a gun when you're running certain kinds of businesses or working certain jobs.. I keep ending up in those situations for some reason.. :p

Totally irresponsible and idiotic, if you ask me. And a shotgun can likely kill even when aimed lower than the chest. The spray of the miniature balls in the shells often makes sure of that.

And if it doesn't kill, it will very likely cause a life-long injury. Incapacitating burglars is one thing. Ruining somebody's life is just wrong.

She's a resident of the house. Not much we could do about that.

Although in all fairness, her dealer came over one night at 3am. My old man, seeing this from his window, walked out into the driveway with his remington in his arms. The kid burned rubber in reverse and hasn't been seen here since.

I guess he must have been a LIBERAL drug addict then - lol.

She does want to be a social worker, and she claims to have been sexually abused by all men in the family, forced into prostitution, etc. Typical crap you expect from a hippie, plus the drug addictions. Hell she even assault me at dinner once. That didn't go to well.

Apparently neither you nor your friend were bright enough to know you do NOT keep food in your tent -- you put it into sealed coolers in the car, or you hang it from a tree away from your camp for PRECISELY this reason.

My rifle is loaded-yes. It's kept in the safe, however. I keep it so because I had trouble when my sister was still on drugs she had some of her dealers come to our house and things didn't go to well. She's gone now though, so less trouble for us at the house.

My dad, for reasons unknown does not keep a safe. I've harped on him to get one before his gun gets stolen and used for a crime and then he'd be held liable. :mad:

I live in London ( a part of London that has a lot of famous people living in it) and it is like a little village. So I am sitting on my sofa at 8pm on a balmy July evening. The sky is still blue and the night seems far away. My cat has just begged to go out my bathroom window into the garden s I have obliged (I'm like that, kind, friendly, jolly, well trained) So I am watching some programme about some guy trying to make kyaks with a bunch of Same people in the North of Sweden (it was better than it sounds) when I hear a noise in my bathroom which I presume is the cat, so when she doesn't come running into the sittingroom I look down that way to see why.

That's when I see a guy half way through my bathroom window (his head and his shoulders mainly. So what do I do. I am 44 year old disabled woman who is a lot of pain most days and has no energy. I jump up and run right at him shouting "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FLAT". :upyours: He looked up was totally shocked and terrified said "sorry" scraped his way back out of the window and ran off through the garden. He was shitting himself. :eek: Did I mention I am about the size of a tank. :sniper: Still it was nice of him to apologize eh!

I live in London ( a part of London that has a lot of famous people living in it) and it is like a little village. So I am sitting on my sofa at 8pm on a balmy July evening. The sky is still blue and the night seems far away. My cat has just begged to go out my bathroom window into the garden s I have obliged (I'm like that, kind, friendly, jolly, well trained) So I am watching some programme about some guy trying to make kyaks with a bunch of Same people in the North of Sweden (it was better than it sounds) when I hear a noise in my bathroom which I presume is the cat, so when she doesn't come running into the sittingroom I look down that way to see why.

That's when I see a guy half way through my bathroom window (his head and his shoulders mainly. So what do I do. I am 44 year old disabled woman who is a lot of pain most days and has no energy. I jump up and run right at him shouting "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FLAT". :upyours: He looked up was totally shocked and terrified said "sorry" scraped his way back out of the window and ran off through the garden. He was shitting himself. :eek: Did I mention I am about the size of a tank. :sniper: Still it was nice of him to apologize eh!
Hell hath no fury like a woman who finds you breaking into her flat.

You wouldn't get into trouble for that with the british police eh?

Good job. Should have kicked him for even trying!

Hell hath no fury like a woman who finds you breaking into her flat.Never underestimate the power of shock. I'm suprised he didn't fall. from the shock. You know how when you're totally engrossed in something and then someone startles you?

With regards to the OP... your sister... with keys to house... broke through the front door?... And your parents not have a lock on their bedroom door, but lock it as well? And you were more concerned about your sister messing up the house than the possbility that she might have been contemplating suicide (as that's what the meds and ammunition would seem to suggest).

I feel loathe to say this, but you have a weird family... uhh... yeah.

My point exactly, although atleast the Ruger kept them from losing their lives over it.


My point, though, is their carelessness for basic safety is what placed them in danger. In other words, there was no need for his friend to have his ear and scalp ripped off, nor for a bear to have six slugs in its brain... had they had the least idea what they were doing, reconstructive surgery would have been completely unnecessary. It was stupid, near fatal, and wasteful.

Similarly, carelessness for basic safety is creating a very dangerous situation in your home. If your father cannot see that given this last incident, I pity you. His actions (in inaction) are endangering himself, you and your mother. Additionally, because of this carelessness (God forbid), your sister, your father, your mother and/or you may suffer injury or death.

That's when I see a guy half way through my bathroom window ......... He was shitting himself.......


Duh, why do you think he was trying to get into your bathroom! :D


Ultraextreme Sanity, how is your friend now? Also, what kind of bear was it (black bear, grizzly, etc)? And finally, how did the bear taste?


DesignatedMarksman, if it's a matter of him not wanting to spend the money on a safe, why not get him one for his birthday/Father's day/Christmas/etc. At the very least, something like the one you have would be better than nothing.

I'm going to give him my el cheapo cabinet whenever I get a new safe.

Thanks SR! I Appreciate it. She escaped this morning and was caught. Mind you she scaled a 15 foot barbed wire fence :eek:!

FYI, there was a thread a few weeks back about me asking for help on listening devices for phones. Someone asked about why I was so intent on listening to her conversations...Well, she got a felony cocaine charge coming up :eek:

She messed up man....
