Oh no, fuck that! BAD idea!!! BAD BAD BAD IDEA!!! Charging out into the unknown, and locking your escape route behind you?Quote:
Maybe exiting the house and locking the door behind me so my family is safe.
Ever take first aid training and been cautioned about taking chances to help someone? Ever heard of the "now we have to rescue the rescuer" scenario?
Bottom line, right here.Quote:
my own ass and my family comes first
Lol, let's go to church now that you swam in my pool naked. What he really asked was if she wanted to cum inside.Quote:

I am all for protecting the weak and I and my brother were raised to stand up to brutality and we have stepped in and halted situations both together and individually. It is a character trait that worries my wife to no end, but she knows to stay out of the way and seek help.
As others have said, I definitely can't blame the homeowners for this.
Would I help? Maybe. If so, definitely armed and cautious. But I can't judge them, nor know exactly what I'd do in that situation.
As for those saying that it couldn't possibly be a robbery attempt, there was a story of the woman swimming in a guy's pool naked while her boyfriend robbed them of some precious jewelry. Is it different? Yes, but it is classic distraction/sleight of hand. Perhaps you'd be looking for the bad rapist in the front yard, while her accomplice sneaks in the back, or she "cases" the place looking for possible modes of entry/defenses/etc for a future attempt.
I have to admit, my stepdaughter is a heroin addict, and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to hear of her doing something like this. So I'm a bit jaded about this subject.
1. call 911, keep them on the phone
2. get a blanket
3. turn on the flood lights
4. answer the door with my pistol
5. after determining it isn't a setup, get her inside and covered up until the police show.
I don't believe in not rendering aid, but I also don't believe in being a target.

That being said.........
I'd personally rather take the chance that the girl is lying to then live with the regret that she was telling the truth and I didn't help enough
Easy for me to say as a single man with no children . ... yeah I get that
Neighbor of mine used to beat his wife, stopped him on two occasions, stopped a mugger on my second date with my wife. That being said i am not as young as i used to be nor as nearly bad ass, so now i am armed,
It is hard to say how i would react, suffice to say i would be ready to defend myself
