George Phillips of Marsh Green, Wigan UK was going up to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window.
George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things. He phoned the police, who asked 'Is someone in your house?' and he said 'no'. Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available. George said, 'Okay,' hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again. 'Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I've just shot them.' Then he hung up. Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response Unit, and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the burglars red-handed. One of the Policemen said to George: 'I thought you said that you'd shot them!' George said, 'I thought you said there was nobody available.' Don't f*ck with old people. |

Way back in 1981, then Delaware gov Pete DuPont signed into law the right to protect ones property.
if they were in the house, kill'm. I don't know if the law has changed... I don't remember reading it has. Personally, any law that restricts the owners right to protect themselves is thoroughly screwed up. I am not for vigilante justice, but I am also not for a society of victims. |
