I dont think any one is saying " shoot any one who knocks on your door"

We have had many drunks and lost people stop here before.
Helped most, called the cops on the others.
Had a guy knock on the door at 3am.
I answered the door through the door. The guy asked if he could use the phone as his car was stuck.
I said I would make the call. He gave the number and I called. 1/2 hr latter some one came and picked him up. He stayed out side the whole time. We stayed inside. Seems unfriendly but we are not taking chances with our safety at 3 am.

Had he not followed my instructions. And tried to enter my home........well you know.

Have had a truck break down right in my drive at 5 am. 3 guys drunk off their butts. One guy knocked at the door wile the others were milling about the yard. They asked for gas.

I told them to return to their vehicle were I could see them and I would get them some gas.
As I was talking the wife called the cops.

We put the kids in the back bed room and I gave the wife the shot gun. I kept the revolver in my coat pocket.
I went out when I saw them at the truck and gave them some gas. As I was talking to them I could hear a vehicle coming down the road from the east real fast. At the top of the hill I noticed it was the law.

Turns out the truck was stolen, they were all drunk and they had my sawsall in the back from my truck. Plus they were minors.

I am used to that kind of thing around here. We had a 1/2 way house 2 mile east of us for years. Every creepy crud you could think of was always walking the road from the house to Braham.


Have another story I will tell another time about what happened once to the wife wile I was on a fishing trip. All I can say wife did a good job convicing the guy I was on my way back from the hardware store any minute.

Thank God they closed up that 1/2 way house. havent had any problems since. And havent had to shoot any one yet.
