re: If your neighbor said he wanted to hurt your children

I would roll his arse into the nearest swimming pool and watch just how long that upper body strength held out as I gently pushed his hand away every time he was able to reach the side

I would then start crying as I was unable to help this poor despondent man through his agony over his condition.

The crazy in you is a lot more than the guy in the OP.

OTers sure have some interesting encounters. I never run across these kind of people.

Jimmy, with some of the adventures that Angel and Rocky got you into, surely you have met this type.

I'd probably just leave it alone if the guy is both physically and mentally handicapped. I'd tell my kids to stay away and never talk to him and to tell me if he says anything else.

I'd get arrested for assault for sure

But would you go into a neighbors yard and assault a dog that was trying to get through the fence to kill your children, after trying to warn the owners?

I get your point about the dog. You should call animal control again

There's no dog either. It's a gotcha thread about people's response to humans vs animals.

If it's a dog, owners are responsible for them and their well being. And if said dog gets into my yard I would have no problem shooting it. I've actually earned a neighbor about this whose mutt gets out and charges my pregnant wife when she's getting out of her car.

I would be upset if my dogs caused this situation and ended up dead, but would understand if another person had to chose their family's safety over my dogs life. But my dogs aren't insane so I don't have to worry about that
