The homeowner told police the two men said they were police and claimed they were at the home to serve a warrant.
“[The homeowner] became suspicious, because, you know, they have a ring camera too, and the suspects were saying they had a warrant, but it was just two people and they’re masked up and no police cars, no lights or anything like that,” said Lt. Khan with HPD.
Where do you live? Seriosly, I live in Europe, never been in USA and reading stuff like this I will never ever go in a country where anybody could have a gun. Sometime I forgot to lock my appartment at night, don’t own a gun. Simple life. There are thieves but most of the time they don’t have a weapon, maybe a knife.
Uh, europeans have guns too.
Thinking about moving to the Philippines and telling my wife it would be a bummer to never get to shoot again. She looked at me like I grew a second head. LOL, she has a relative that owns a gun store and Filipinos are simply mad for 1911s. Who knew?
Americans don’t have a gun problem. American’s have a culture problem.
A Fillipino made 1911 is my overt fav. Inexpensive and fabulously well made. I knew. ;)
NW Florida, America. No, not everyone can have a gun, and not as many people are armed as you might think. Bear in mind, unusual events get reported, because they are unusual. There are 340,000,000 souls here. It’s a big-assed country, weird shit happens.
And yes, I used to leave my house unlocked all the time. The only reason I started locking up was to keep anyone from stealing my guns. (After the “bear incident”.) How’s that for irony?
None the less, I had felt safe leaving my door unlocked, and usually did, but now, with the current political situation and having a brown immigrant wife …🤷🏻 Doors locked, 12-gauge leaning on the desk, AR-15 resting on the nightstand. But I’m damned thankful to be armed and practiced. Fucking nuts! I never imagined.
Anyway, I’ve been in many situations, both in the wild and on the street, mostly in the wild, where I was glad to be armed. Having said that, I’ve led a life that’s a bit more… adventurous, than most Americans. Please do not take my anecdotes to be typical of American life. And please don’t take our media reports to be typical.
