Spinoff: A person or persons has gained access to your house
Posted on 5/11/17 at 10:21 am

It's the middle of the night. You wake up and hear someone inside your house. You and your wife are in your bedroom. Your two teenagers are upstairs asleep. You have a gun or guns in your bedroom. What do you do? Do you actively hunt down the intruder? Wait for him/them to come to you? What about the kids upstairs? A terrible situation to find yourself in, but not outside the realm of possibility.

Hunt down carefully. If not he/she could get to your sleeping kids first. Plus, the element of surprise is crucial.

Are you plotting to kill someone?

Negative. One thought that led to another and then to another. A thread like this might actually help someone one day

I'll remember to do a quick TD search when someone breaks into my house in the middle of the night.

1. Retrieve Flashlight
2. Calmly approach intruder
3. Ask to see his/her knuckles
4. Make determination to fight/flight after observing aforementioned knuckles

Rack the shotgun to say hello.

No, but you might automatically think about something that was discussed in this thread and it could save you and your family, or get you all killed depending on who you listen to. I've used advice or suggestions that I read on here months later

im going to blast him first before he lays a finger on anyone in the house.
I couldnt live with my wife or children being harmed or raped, etc
I can easily live with killing someone who trespassed and violated my privacy

Hunt them down quietly. You know your own house. The intruder doesn't.

send out the drone to distract them.
pump them full of lead

Get gun, quietly get out in hallway near top of stairs and hold the high ground.
The second they are in sight, bang
It's a lot more difficult decision in a single story/ranch house

A flashlight seems like a pretty bad idea of stealth is your goal.

Ah, well, if it were me, I would sweep the house and make sure I put myself between the intruder and my family*

5. If fight, get car keys and drive to Sonic.

Is the parents' bedroom upstairs or downstairs? If I were downstairs in this scenario, I'm going hunting. If I were in my house where all bedrooms are upstairs, then there is a spot that I can sit in and have a clear shot of anyone coming up the stairs before they can find me.
That being said, I'll probably still go hunting. I'm a materialistic person, and don't want my shite downstairs stolen.

Haha! There is no plot at this time

Assuming the kids are in different rooms, quickly grab both kids and wife and bring into same room and wait for intruder to enter.
If that's not an option, I'd probably hunt him down with my finger on the trigger.
