You have a gun. They're taking them away in boxes, in your home


topic/poll
If they're there without my consent, in my property, IN MY HOME, then best believe that they're going to safekeep some of my slugs into their brain.

Considering I only have like 10 games..yeah take them.

If there was a threat I'd probably give up more if it had a chance of taking my life. Just stuff man...

I wouldn't kill them to save my games.

I'd kill them because I believe my state's castle doctrine laws would allow it simply by them being in my home. Gotta read more into that but, if that's the case, then yes.
This is LinksLiege's signature. It is fantastic.
No. Just beat them up and stop them.

if I had the opportunity to kill them, I'd take out my phone and take a picture, and pass it along to the authorities

if they tried to attack me, I'll defend myself to the best of my ability

I don't care who it is, they're gonna die.
WHO MODS THE MODERATORS?
Unless it was a burglary or something where I needed to defend myself, no. That's not even an option. I don't have attachment to possessions like that and at the same time, I'd have to be a sociopath to even consider that to be a reasonable response. Attachment to possessions leading to murderous intent is... troubling to say the least.
If you're not looking for any honest discussion, agreement, meeting halfway or middle ground, don't bother arguing with me. Selfish narcissists need not apply.
Those aren't just games anymore. I've sunk hundreds if not thousands of hours into them, proudly progressed through each and every one.

I'm not a violent person and pretty anti-death in general. Rational me says I'd call the cops. But in the moment, faced with the prospect that I might never see those games again... I'd probably do something I'd later regret.

Yes. On the principal that they're in my apartment without my consent.

Yes. On the basic fact that they've broken into my home to begin with regardless of what they're stealing.

I'll laugh at whatever I find funny whether you like it or not.
no because they're fucking video games
fuckin nerds man
ideally no. i wouldn't shoot them dead, but try to shoot them along the spine and hope they are lose all function below the neck for the rest of their life.
Assuming they are only here for my video game collection and they don't aim to hurt anyone. The answer is no. Of course, I would still try to subdue them to hand over to the police.

Good. People should be afraid of breaking into houses. I think the second you do, you deserve death.

You're more likely to destroy your life, killing someone than getting any sort of self-defense satisfaction.
You have zero knowledge of their intent. They could want to come there, steal your shit, and then kill you and your family. You have NO idea. All I know, someone breaks into my home, threatens my life, my family, idgaf what your intent is, you don't belong there, and I own guns. I have zero remorse ending your life over waiting to see if you decide to harm me and my family or not. No debate.

Damn if you guys are serious voting yes that's pretty horrible. You could even just shoot them in the foot or something so they can't get away, but killing someone over video games is ridiculous.

I'm not talking asbout what the law says. I'm talking about what's right and wrong and to me, burglars or home invaders no longer have any rights of protection after they are inside a home. It should be open season.

And it's not right to kill someone over burglary and the law will punish you for it. Just like the previous poster said, at the very least you shoot them in the leg or have them at gun point. That's the more civil way of handling the matter, without fucking up your life.

This, except I wouldn't be trying to kill them. If some jerk(s) broke into by house to steal my belongings, and I had a firearm that I was competent enough to use, then yeah, I would use it. But it's not like I would be going for a kill shot.

I should shoot them in the shin. They'll survive. But it's gonna hurt like hell.
I may not go down in history, but I will go down on your sister.
Don't care what any of the Cucks say if I find anybody in my home I'll shoot them i will not take any risks with my own safety or that of my wife and children.

And if you use a gun you should be fully prepared to kill, if you don't and they're armed they probably won't hesitate to kill you.
i dont think i could kill anyone unless they were physically threatening someone i love

this topic results scare me
Kill? Naw. A shot in the leg would do.
Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends

No need to kill, just threaten/subdue until the police come. A gun can be plenty effective without firing it.
I am snazzier, hot, hot rant. Warily slight as.

I don't like to kill, but I will hurt them very badly.

Then the police take away the games they have already begun to steal as evidence and it will take a long time to get them back.

Then you will be the one going to jail and they walk free with as much money as they can sue you for.
Hmm...
So if you kill them, it's assumed you hide the body and get away with it? Lol

Pretty sure there'd be even more legal red tape if you shot them so that doesn't really matter.

The law is only part of what I posted, if you can't even bother to read the rest of the post. Someone with your 'impatience' should never get behind a firearm.

This is why many other 1st world nation avoids giving everyone access to firearms.

bump!
I don't even really play the physical video games I have lol
No, I'd simply kill them for breaking into my home. If they managed to somehow steal my games (they're all digital anymore so good luck?) Without breaking into my house I would not kill them.

I have a loaded shotgun with slugs in it in a safe at the end of the narrow hallway coming in my door and another locked upstairs in case they get in the door before I can get up and stop them. I basically have two choke points in my house where I can allow them to decide whether they want to flee and live or if they want to risk having chunks of their body blown off by slugs along with security cameras so I know exactly what they're doing if they are dumb enough to rush me.

I'm actually waiting on ups to drop off my strobe attachments for such an occasion because the local meth heads have been breaking into cars and stuff. Would be a shame if I had to kill one of my old school mates.

Trying is the first step towards failure, so just dont give it a shot and you cant dissapoint.
never kill.

unless they're bringing harm to my dog.
