Make no mistake, there are at least TWO firearms in my bedroom.
Both loaded and ready to go.

Any entry to my home will trigger the alarm. Within 2-3 seconds I will be up,
armed and begin room clearing. My other half will stay in the bedroom with
instructions to shoot anyone that enters the bedroom other than myself.

Anyone I encounter will likely get shot at least twice with no warning.
I don't care if they're obviously armed or not. I don't care what their
intentions are.

If a target goes down I will move to the next target and repeat. If the
downed target still poses a threat, they will likely be shot again until
that threat is gone.


While the police will already be enroute due to the alarm, my other half
will be calling them anyway to make sure they announce their presense prior
to entering the home. ( for their safety and mine )


Interesting to see your perspective.

I was in the accident outside your house, my wife is bleeding out but my phone is broken. I am very desperate to save her life. I knocked on the door but you were asleep and didn't hear it. I broke into your house to get to the phone and to stop bleeding in my hand. You just shot me on sight.

I can't say that I would never shoot anyone without a warning, I too can be startled, misread the situation and so on... but my intention is to never under any circumstances to shoot anyone without giving them a warning and opportunity to disengage from the situation that I find threatening.
