What would you do if there was an intruder in your home?
Are you prepared and able to fight or take flight? Have you taught your children what you would like them to do?
I personally would by any means necessary protect my mother and myself from an intruder at all costs. We have a right to defend our property and potentially our lives!
Protect my home and those within its walls.
Such a night, once came...........I had a butcher knife.
Then I got a large and protective dog.
Now, I have a small arsenal.
They might " sue " me...........but, I will live another day to face them.
My children, today, are grown, but once I instructed them, as I do my grandchildren..........
get behind me and do exactly as I tell you to do! I promise to explain later...........but right now.......you have to obey me. That could mean, lay still, be quiet or run to another house.......
It is my HOME..........natural disaster might cause me to leave it...........intruders....NO
I would rather lay them in their graves and deal with the law...............otherwise, what does HOME, mean?
I would defend my family and my property with any means necessary. If you run you're letting the criminal win and that is not something i am prepared to do.
As a family, we always talk about this. According to my dad, we (me, my brother and my sister) should run to their room, lock it and yell for the neighbors to get us and get the intruder.
But if this intruder came to hurt us, I would definitely put myself in front of my siblings and my mom to protect them. As the eldest, I'm kind of over protective.
my kids no that if someone breaks into our home while we are there what to do. i personally would either beat the person brutally or kill them depending on if they had a weapon or not. DO NOT enter my family home uninvited.
I would know before he even touches the house. My video cameras would worn me. Then I would get the knives that are littered around the house for protective measures.

What would you do in your last 10 minutes of life?Let's say that the angel of death came to you and said that He will be taking your soul in 10 minutes. What would you do? Who would you call?
