if you blasted an intruder in your home...would you need to move?
 

got in a debate at work...probably because alot of my co-workers are asian. they are afraid of ghost and stuff.

if you caught some guy about to do bad things in your sacred home, and you opened him/her up with gunfire, would you still be able to sleep at home? i am talking close range, .357 to the head, or 12g shotgun to the face, brainy mashy splatter, blood pool grossness.

i think i would spongeclean, change out sheetrock, redecorate, and move back in.
my wife? not so much..

you guys?

I'd leave the blood splatter on the wall as a warning to future invaders. If allowed, I'd also leave their head on a pike in my front yard.

I like you. You can date my sister.

Me?

Probably not.

My wife?

Definitely. She watches "Ghost Hunters". She's a sucker for that crap.

jackarse! you just made me blow peach splatter all over my flatscreen!

A little bleach, paint and sheet rock, what is the difference?

Anyone think Joe horn has trouble sleeping at his house?

EDIT: We would probably have to move based on my wife being pretty freaked out by gross stuff.


And, no, I doubt she would let me take the perp's head to a new house.:)

move an end table over the stain maybe...

We would have to move.

So you would sell your home at a loss (or abandon it completely) if you blasted someone inside?

No way. Dirtbags will have my home marked with a push-pin in their "places to avoid" map, not vice-versa.

You shot him in the face recently? His soul is probably still scare. But I understand about the wife and kids part. Maybe not a good idea if they saw it happend.

Are you one of Vash's co-workers?

I never said anything about selling the house for a loss...

If I shot & killed someone in our home it would be messy (12ga 870). Most likely the wife and kids would be there as well and there's no way they would be at ease in the home again.

I would rent the home and find another place to live. We would stay in the same community however.

Hmm...tons of places for rent in SoCal. Probably wouldn't get top-dollar. So you'd be willing to take a loss? :confused:

I could see if you lived through the Amityville Horror or something, but moving from your home? That sounds pretty drastic.

Check out the company called Crime Scene Cleanup.

I like my home enough to defend it. I would clean and stay. In our small town everyone would know and I guarantee no one would try again.

It would not bother me at all. Once it is all cleaned up what difference does it make? I may have to get this sign for my front yard.

Not as drastic as putting someone down in the home...at least to me. Look I'm just being honest. I have a wife and young kids - there is no way they are going to want to stay after such an event. Could I (if single)...maybe...I can't say for sure as I have never killed anyone. There is much more at stake then money.

Yup. But I am not saying I should be affraid at the ghost, rather the soul is still afraid at his gun http://forums.pelicanparts.com/suppo...ys/men_ani.gif

Ah-ha...I see.

So...souls are bullet-proof? :confused:

Eh...take 'em to DisneyLand during the re-model. They'll forget all about it in a few days.

topic came up at work yesterday. i was over at co-worker's RAY's home. hanging in a great SF neighborhood, sipping good beer with the neighbors. asian dude comes over. he bought a home 4 doors down, 2 years ago. he asks, "have you seen any intruders in my backyard?" apparently, someone had been moving his potted plants around. Ray said, "maybe it is mr meeks" "WHAT?", ray continues..."yea, mr meeks died in that house." asian dude freaks, start yammering about sueing the real estate company...yada yada yada...he then squats down, puts his face into his hands, and complete silence. after awhile he lets out a muffled baby sound, gets up, and says, "we need to move..my wife is going to yell". all the neighbors were stunned until i explained the chinese superstitions. i asked ray, why he even said anything. he replied, look at all the mexicans living here, it it wasnt going to be me, it would have been another hispanic blabber mouth. beer was good. we talked about making ghost noises so maybe i could buy the home cheap.

the dude freaked! so i asked some co-workers. apparently, killing someone, is the worst ju-ju.

LOL.

Wow. That's a good idea. I'll have to remember this during negotiations of my next purchase when the seller doesn't want to budge.

Dead - probably.

Not dead - no.

SmileWavySmileWavy try to off them outside first!

great movie.


but not in california. it's gonna have to go down IN the home.

Sad, but true. You'll also have to attempt to retreat first, too. :( Pathetic.

I honestly don't know. I will absolutely defend my home, with lethal force if necessary. But killing someone has got to be intense , even a lowlife, crackhead scumbag. So I really don't know.

I'd move, but mostly "just in case" he's got a friend, family member, anybody with a grudge that may come for a revisit... Not worth risking my family over that... Would be a hard sell, I imagine, especially with my nosy neighbor who probably would tell all prospective buyers right after "hello"...

Thanks Senior Drill instructor Hartman. ;)

man this has been a good read/laugh!


me................since despite a poo poo economy and living in the same house for a billion years and never being able to afford another in this zip code .............heres what i would do.

1) call the cops after benelli M-2/REM 870 takes care of bizzness.

2) call my lawyer and take pictures(alot)

3) call crime scene cleanup

4) MEASURE BUCKSHOT PATTERNS

5) MEASURE SLUG PATTERNS

6) if above FEDERAL LOW RECOIL OO BUCK(LEO-APPROVED) and FEDERAL LOW RECOIL-(LEO APPROVED)......................

PATTERNS WERE NOT WITHIN VANG COMPS GUARANTEED PATTERN TOLERANCE SPECS...............

i would return both M-2/REM 870 to VANG COMP and politely ask them to look at the pattern pictures i have taken AND SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO ABOUT 'TIGHTENING UP MY GROUPS!"

if some drunk idiot flying down yer road hits a soccer mommy van full of kids, flips both vehicles and bodies laying dead all over yer yard..........would you sell yer house because of someones dumbass bahavior??????????

i dont think so! i gots almost 25 years of crap stored here. what a PITA MOVING!

I don't care about ghosts, but I would be a little concerned about the scumbags brother showing up looking for revenge. Would I move because of ghosts or some such rubbish? No. Because its rubbish.

killing someone is a heavy burden...it would be tough.

And just think how much fun it would be to list your house for sale. Not only would the death probably have to be disclosed by the listing agent (depending on the state), but the deceased's cohorts could easily pose as buyers, contact the listing agent and get in to case your house. And if your story had been in the papers, you'd be even more liekly to have foot traffic when you list it for sale, but maybe not for all the right reasons.

I was in a friend's house after a gruesome axe murder (the real story behind the movie "Murder In A Small Town") and you could see where they had replaced part of the floor because of the axe blows. I couldn't help but to look around for more evidence of missed spots.

OK rick you GOTTA tell us the story surrounding your last post.

Terrible shot group.

i wouldnt move but id be sleeping with my shotgun next to me and one eye open for few months

Good to know. I'm gonna' find some Asian guys and start poltergeisting them, then just "happen" to offer them $0.40 on the dollar cash to take the place off their hands. Heh heh heh.

This has all the makings of a really great racket.

The Gores were family friends. I drove by that house just the past April. Was last in there when I was about 11.
