I would gauge eyeballs out with my fingers and rip throats out with my teeth.
Weapon wise I have a merchant's compass that works quite well as a stabbing implement.
I am the guard dog. Do not fuck with me or my family. God help you if you do.

If anyone is going to hurt an attacker, kill them. I am more one for coming down with my sword. People tend to get confused when you do the unexpected

Flight if possible, fight if necessary. And if the short ones are in the house, absolutely everything that it takes to keep them safe.

I have a 70lb. pitbull who would meet them at their point of entry, I own several guns, which I am trained (and my daughter) to use. I would not have any qualms about shooting an intruder who broke into my home. I have signs on my gate warning them about the dog and one my sub bought which reads "Never mind the dog, beware of the owner".

I figure if your going to be a criminal then you take your life into your own hands when you break into someones home. Afterall a womans home is her castle.

~Lashra

Just a warning I have had passed to me that I thought I would pass on to you. At least in Canada and I think the US a beware of dog sign indicates that you know you have a weapon running around your house. Therefore if the animal attacks and harms anyone you are liable since you know that is what the dog would do. If you do not have the sign you have a bit more leeway so I have heard.

I feel this way if he is stupid enough to come onto my property which has signs up all around it and then break into my home then he is fair game. If they want to press charges against me or sue me go for it. I believe a person has a right to protect themselves from harm even if our so called legal system doesnt always agree.

Really? So if a stranger broke into your home, was threatening harm to you and your dear ones, you would stop, run to the kitchen, grab a frying pan and "think" you're going to be able to smack the intruder upside the head? You also think that while said intruder is either wanting to harm you and yours physically, or rob you, you'd have time or even access to the phone to call the police. *shakes head* You live in a very different world than I.

Why would the answers to this have any bearing on whether or not a person is kinky? Better yet, why do you think that, depending on whether they were D or s make any difference?

Is it possible for a practitioner for mental health to lose their license in Ireland? Somebody needs to review the one that's being used in this case.

I would grab my mobile phone and call the police. I would not want a death on my conscience. To me to kill someone is just wrong. Killing for me is wrong full stop. To me two wrongs ie an eye for an eye , do not make a right. But thats just me

Anyone that knows anyone in law enforcement knows that if you shoot, you shoot to kill. You don't horse around and try and shoot their arms and legs to make them not able to run away. Because in the mean time, they could very well shoot you.

Even beyond that it is a lot better for you in court if you are the only witness. If the person has a lot of money they will probably be able to get a lawyer that will find at least 5 different ways to screw you, and none of them will be the nice way

I feel the same way. I have a 150 lb. rottweiler. I also have a sign on my gate that declares that he is in the yard. It does not say "beware of dog," it says "rottweiler x-ing" or something retarded like that. This is ONLY because we have pest control folks that don't like to call before they come over, and get quite a shock when they see my pup. He isn't mean, but he certainly looks it. It isn't at all to deter perps from trying to jump the fence or enter the house. I don't need a sign for that. Him simply running around the yard does that.

We had it arranged so the meter readers would contact me before they went into the yard. We had signs on the gate. Still this lady decides it will be fine and comes on in. My dogs when not playing would sit by the window of the room I was in and this day I was taking a shower. So she comes around the corner and there is my one hundred and twenty pound baby. She took a stance and wasn't going to let her move closer. The idiot picked up a stick and my big baby started barking. They were taught not to attack, but to pin the person until I could get there, unless there was a sign of aggression from the person.

Here I am naked, opening the window and calling the dogs off and yelling at the bitch to read the friggin signs and go by the arrangement we have with the company or next time I would let her eat her. I was so pissed. I was also very thankful my dog was well trained or that lady would have been in serious trouble. She did put in an aggressive dog report though. When they investigated... they saw how my dog obeyed my hand signs and saw the beware of dog signs and such. Still a report is a report and stays on the records. It's like you have to protect the dog against idiot's then.

What training did you use for your dog, I would be interested in lookinging into this for when I get one

I didn't use a system... just mine. I can't remember commands that other people use because of my brain injury, so I had to use things that would come to my mind quickly. As I used words, I also made a sign with my hands. When I get a new dog, I make sure I can be home with them for the most part of a year. They would test at times. lol I was very consistant with them and with a look they would know. lol

I first learned the dog's personality and then went from there on what I needed to do. I learned to know what they were about to do before they did it. It meant lots of hours watching the dog and then using their personality to teach them what I wanted them to do. They even picked up their toys and put them in the basket. I used a harness, cage and positive re-enforcement. We socialized them to know who was supposed to be there and introduced them to anyone new. Anyone else was up for grabs.

My brain isn't working so well to day and I can't explain how I did it. lol

As an side note, I believe if you have beware of dog signs and the dog attacks someone, unrelated to breaking in, then the authorities will take it as a for knowledge your dog was aggressive and your dog could be in big trouble.

So what is your address, exactly (Just kidding)???

I was going to ask the same thing, until i saw the Lady Tiger's post. Now i want her address instead.

Why Lady Tigers one...I think you should test Lockits dog for us and then feedback to us *joking*

Regarding intruder I was lucky-ish so far...A few years ago, guess about 12 years ago by now...we had 3 burglaries in our street (which is still quite a safe and low crime area itself...so needless to say we were...surprised). However, luckily they did not choose our house. A while later we moved and there a neighbour met a burglar in his hallway...didn't end spectacular but once again...glad he did not visit us....

In 2006-07 I was living in a houseshare...I was in a room in the loft and we had builder doing some work in the entrance from the house (I think they plastered the entrance or so). And there it happened once that I was sitting in my room, watching TV and someone carefully - with a grin in his face - opened my door...strangely his grin vanished when he realised that I was IN my room and off he went...I remember that I was so gobsmacked about it that I did not really talk about it at that moment and my Landlord from that time probably still hasn't got a clue about that (at least not from me). So I don't know if he was one from the guys working on the entrance or if it was an even more cheeky one who sneaked in, thinking kind of "there are so many strangers they won't realise me anyway."

Reflecting back I should have informed the police that they at least can take the finger prints on my door handle, because if it is one of them working there, then it is easy to find out, same of course if it is someone else who is on their database. However, at that moment I did not react to it as he left straight away and I had not expect it at that particular place to happen.

In the flat I am living now since more then two years thankfully never happened anything and I hope it stays that way!

In regards to weapons...I don't have guns or such stuff with me, as I live by the view that they can also be used against myself and I did not like it when my grandpa had one at home (as we feared that he might loose the plot at some point - he had alcohol problems - and maybe even accidentially shoot my granny). Thankfully he never used it at the end.

I've broken my mom's nose one time years ago when I came home and she popped out from behind the door and grabbed me (she was supposed to be at work and came home early) I didn't even think, i just reacted. I'd probably do the same thing with someone I didnt' know

If you have 'do not trespass' signs on your property, posted front and back with the beware of dog signs... they trespass and they are in the wrong. That is what was explained to me by the insurance company and the police department and the animal control. A lot of this is regulated locally so you should check with those who regulate it all.

My dogs would not leave our yard, fenced or not. If you stepped in they would warn you and keep you from coming any further. Looking at my dog... no one dared challenge that to a point of attack. lol She was just too big! The other's were smaller, some larger type dogs, but my fav was the big one and who I mostly talk about.

Hehe Pheonix... I could give my ex's address out and you could go by and see them! lol

Thought I better edit this and explain... He love's showing them off and a lot of the time they are laying on the front porch. That is how I saw them when we broke up and he wouldn't let me have visitation. But he loves showing people what they can do. That wasn't meant like... yeah... go see whether they eat you or not! lol

Yeah it could be different locally. Personally I think it's stupid, someone can break in and if you defend yourself you can be sued and the perp could actually win. There was one case where a home invader got locked into the garage and had to live on dog food and soda, and he sued the home owners.

I am personally of the mind that if you're breaking in and are hurt or detained for weeks because you got locked in while the home owner was away, you get what you had coming.
