I guess what I am saying is she should have first grabbed the phone. The first time someone knocked and she couldnt see anything she shoudl have been calling the PD.
Thats what the public servant is there for.
Even at my shop, I am tired of walking outside to see what or who is dumping shit on the property. I just call the PD and have them come out. Besides, if they shoot someone, better them than me.
I say this and the other night I thought I heard gun shots outside the house... it woke everyone up and was a double tap. So without even thinking I threw the phone to the girl, and I went out side unarmed at 1 am in the morning in the snow LOL. I know its not funny, but I just reacted. There was nothing, I am not sure if my neighbor just killed his wife or if someone had something mechanical break. I know what a gun shot sounds like ( owning a gun store ) and I swear up and down it was one. But the next morning, I heard it again. To this day I have no idea what it was. But later on made me realize that I should have grabbed the shot gun on my way out the door.
Besides a handgun is only there to get you to your rifle......
