Interesting times we live in, while working out in the garage at about
12.30 AM
i happen to hear some voices from infront of my house. Went to the front
window
and saw 4 teens dressed in all black. Seems kinda odd that its 90 degrees
outside
and they are wearing hooded sweat shirts. They were sitting on the curb,
two infront
of my house and two accross the street. Since we don't have any families
with teens
living on our block i knew they were up to no good. I armed my self and
went back
to the window for another look. Shure enough they were going door to door
down the
block trying to find an unlocked door. My brain is saying this is going
to turn into a
home invasion, someones gonna get thier door kicked in. Grabbed the phone
and called 911
then went back to the window see whats happening. Black pickup truck
pulls up and
parks driver is met by all four as he gets out of his truck. Thinking he
was part of the
crew and things were going to happen fast i called 911 again and begin to
prepair myself
mentally in the event i should become thier target. Finally the police
arive about 10 minutes
after my first 911 call. Turns out the guy in the pickup truck was a
pizza delivery man
and the 4 punks had just robbed him at gun point. My next door neighbor
video taped
the entire incident and there is a good chance the culprits will get
cought. So here i am
just finished filling out the crime report trying to decompress. Its all
over now just the
ugly what if thoughts keep running thru my mind. All i can say is its a
lot different to
have real people in your sights while planning your shots than it is
punching holes in a paper
target. Fortunetally i didnt have to fire my weapon tonight and i hope i
never half to.

Just had to vent a little.

Best Regards
Tom.





At least you were READY to defend yourself if you had to. Good fo ryou.
glad you didn't have to cap one of the little *******s, though you would
have probably been doing the world a favor.

Trouble is revenge. Had azotic done most anything, he could count on
further visits from the crew. I'm so glad I moved out of Vegas, and will
celebrate profusely when my houses sell down there. It's turning into a
hell hole by the day.

Southern Utah is much more peaceful. Farm mentality that lets people shoot
most any creepy crawly night critter that comes on property.
