    Your talking a fair bit of rubbish there chief.

    Its because of attitudes like that the criminals have it so handy in this country. Someone comes into your home where your kids are you have to hit first and ask questions later. Not hide under your bed like a bitch.

    Yeh call the guards. Hopefully there not to busy out doing lads for no tax or nct to do some real work.

    :pac:
    Go gettem Rambo!

    That lad only tripped ^. Imagine if someone had stabbed him while he was lost and asking for directions, with a dodgy Rambo-knife? He was going around minding his own business. Imagine how the courts would view that Rambo scenario? Dimly? You bet. Hurting people has consequences. Just ask SDCC. My view? Don't hurt people/.

    Lookit, all internet "I'd kill them through the heart" shyte aside, I deal with robberies as part of work. The aftermath/stopping it happening again. If the robber gets hurt, the property owner has problems, not the robber. Cnuts fall through skylights, get monged, and sue.. because they were right to be on the roof, yeah? If you actively go out with your 12" #Ramboknife and jab them in the heart - causing superficial bruising and a minor laceration(because Rambo knives are crap) they're gonna clean you for assault.
    Do you understand how bladed weapons work?
    People talk so much rubbish on the internet it isn't right. Lock the bedroom door, with your kids inside and ring the Gards. They get paid to deal with scummers and don't have to pay the claims personally. All the rest is utter spoofery, garbage and frankly fake news. If you're daft enough to listen to some internet hard-chaw going "I'd stab them all through the heart" then you're daft enough not to be bothered by the sh1t-storm that you will endure in the aftermath.

    1) No ****ing way will i wait for gardai in that scenario, not a chance. You break in to my house with my family present, and you'll be the one praying they show up quickly.

    2) You can't claim when you're dead. If in doubt, snuff them out.

    Yeh so if someone is coming up my stairs, in my house, where mi kids are sleeping i should be asking myself what will the courts do if i give this scumbag a hiding? Really? I should put that before the well being and liberty of my family?

    Thats what we are talking about here.

    Giving someone a hiding is one thing, taking their life is another. As another poster asked, yeah, I have killed someone, fully exonerated and no blame attached and all that jazz, but still and all, they died by my hand. That never leaves you, and if you ever have the misfortune to be in the same position, I seriously doubt you'll be the same big internet hardman you are now

    Id rather they die at my hand than potentially harming one of my kids though.

    Im not an internet hardman. Just a realist willing to protect my family.

    What do you advocate in the event of someone breaking into your house where your kids are sleeping etc? What woukd you do?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,820 ✭✭✭smelly sock

    Like a lot of people here my home has been targeted. The joys of living on a side house.

    Thankfully they didnt het in
    Cops arrived 1 hour 30 minutes later.

    Im simply saying that if someone got into where my kids are sleeping its up to me at that point to protect them. I wouldnt be thinking of potential consequences.

    He's watched too many action movies. Fancies himself the lead man.

    Ex special forces. Living a normal life as an Internet hardman. Until one day someone tries to steal the loose change from his bedside locker. And he springs from the wardrobe shotgun in hand and does what anyone with balls the size of hand grenades would do to protect his family and murders a 14 year old.

    Realist me hole. A realist likes Nike - because they make shoes that let you run away much faster. I'd be like TBM. Been there more than the once and don't want to go back. There's a massive difference between "being right" and "feeling right". Sometimes, "defending your family" can wreak havoc on that family you so firmly believed you were defending.

    "Been there more than once"

    The Lidl Florabest pruning saws are a nice cheap weapon to have. Some serious edge on them.

    Quiet now. Make sure you have a decent bed to hide under instead.

    Troll? Yeah. The front door was burst in with sledge the first time. They came up the stairs to where we were all sleeping. My old lad did took care. We suffered that for years. Then others came up the drive at 3am and the dog woke me growling. That time was my turn to be the "internet hardman". It ended badly for them, but when the next day dawned, it ended fairly badly for me too. Their pals haunted us for years. Troll my ar5e.

    No, the arrested, the gun taken and the "we were lost and then he went psycho on us". You don't win because there's just too many excuses. Lock the door and call the gards. That's my view and it's a hard earned one. You fire ahead with witty quips. I know how the reality plays out.
