HFS, Chaos. That's some crazy #### you only see on television. I'm glad your family and you are all unscathed and nothing more than shaken.

I would have gone for the gun first, too, FTR. It can be here a hell of a lot faster than the police can.

Who had to clean up the puke?

Srsly? :lol: My dogs water bowl is a five gallon bucket. It's hot out here and that's just smart. I used it to wash the puke into the garden then gave that a good soak. The dog sniffed it like it might be something worth dining on. She's a Cane Corso.

Yeah, I was going to guess dog was on puke patrol. Mine give the cats a wide berth except when they're about to yuke up some Meow Mix... all of a sudden they become fearless.

Crazy morning here.

I'm getting dressed in my bathroom after a shower. I hear my dog barking a pretty vicious "get outta here" kind of bark. I start hurrying to see what's up. We're out in the desert on 2.5 acre parcels. It takes more than the gardener to get her barking like this, but it happens sometimes when it's no big deal.

I hear my daughter scream. Okay she's 16 and it could be something gross on Youtube but combined with the dog I'm concerned and hustling to see what's up. She starts POUNDING on the bathroom door... screaming....

"Dad, the murderer is in our backyard, the killers are in our yard, I'm serious!!!!"

I open the door with a confused whaaaaaa!!?? I don't know of any murderers at the moment. She runs behind me clearly shaken. "I saw him. It's the murderer!!!!"

The dog has gone ape####. So I run down the hall to the family room...

Where I make strong eye contact with this guy.... who's holding the doggie door shut with my dog going nuts... and who unbeknownst to me was featured on Facebook by our local pd as identified in a morning shooting and on the run...

Also another guy who looks just like that guy is vomiting on my patio...

I run back down the hall to get a gun and call 911 (unfortunately in that order, and hating myself for it). Yep, I'm one of those and this may be an example of a thousand things I don't want to talk about because WOW was this intense. The gun safe was INTENSE. I SAW my heart pound. The sound of the dog seemed distorted and REALLY loud. Took a very deep breath, racked a round, told my kid to lock herself in the bathroom (she didn't). I tried to channel how cool and collected my dad always was in a crisis, and I yelled down the hall as loud as I could (probably sounding something like that demon from Amityville)...

"GETTTT OOOOUUUUUTTTT!!! I am armed!!! I called the cops!!!!", that last bit being a lie.

Then I looked, and saw one of them running. Then I saw a cop, handgun in hand, cross my property like Usain Bolt. I ran to the window and cop #2 saw me and my .45, he yelled to me that they had two on the run and to stay inside. My dog snarled at my garage door. I yelled at the cop to check my garage. He did. Clear. IN-ephing-TENSE.

Pukeface, the shooter's brother, was apprehended on the street two houses down, in violation of parole. Alleged murderer in the link made it another mile. My yard was searched for 30 minutes seeking the potential murder weapon. No luck. Not sure if the lady he shot made it.

I'm having tequila with my beer. And I have a teen daughter who stayed home from school today feeling poorly, who happened to see this story breaking on our city facebook page, then went face to face with the shooter through our dining room window. Just wow. She was shaken for an hour or so, but the cop who searched our yard was really hot, made her feel safe, complimented me for no good reason, told her she was lucky to have a dad like me (really for her benefit not because I reacted great) and now she's doing her homework acting like nothing happened. She's gonna have nightmares, right?

I thought the same thing, then I read what kind of dog he has. Gun and police were both superfluous. :lol:

Seriously though, glad everybody is safe. That is some crazy ####.

When I first read it, I thought it said "guy is vomiting on my piano". And all I could think was "damn that's going to be impossible to clean".

 
I know I've turned into an old curmudgeon because I now ####### hate skateboarders.

Grown men going over and over on the front of our building. ####### midnight, and the building is shaking, not to mention Loud as ####. Don't give a #### about anybody else because "I've got to nail this trick while getting filmed"

There has to be an age cut-off for skateboarding, unless you're Tony Hawk.

I debated whether or not to post about it here given my presence in various gun threads. I'm the guy telling "tactical home defenders" to chill because it won't happen to them, and that a dog is better than a firearm despite owning several. So here that proved true. I'm critical of myself because if your kid says what mine said and you know she isn't kidding and the dog is going nuts... call 911 before ever checking it out. I shouldn't have gone out to the family room without first calling and second arming myself. That run back down the hall was a rookie move that could have cost me.

Crazy sh@#$, Robert. Glad nothing worse went down.

Wouldn't beat myself up too bad about the bolded though. Can never know how you'll react in a situation like that until you're in it.

Given the Cane Corso angle.....that guy is lucky the cops showed up when they did and that he managed to keep her from getting out the door, because otherwise he and his regurgitating sibling(awesome band name) would probably be short a few #### at the very least.

(Seriously? "Testes" gets censored? How 'bout nuts? Balls? Fine....balls. Short a few balls.)

I'm bad at reading.

Did the murderer actually get inside- with your dog outside? Or were you looking at him through a window.

Don't know why that's important.

btw- I'm shaken just reading that story... ####### insane. really glad you and the daguther are ok.

Thanks, btw. I saw him through a window on the door. The door was unlocked. The dog was inside with us, trying to get through the doggie door. It's unnerving to think they would have walked right in an unlocked back door if not for the dog, and done so at a time I was dressing in the bathroom with my kid home sick for the day.

Just to wrap this up a bit. They'd been on the run on foot for a couple hours and covered a few miles to get to my neighborhood. They were exhausted and looking for a place to hide, like my house. They had disposed of any weapons and were unarmed on my property. Not only did my dog prevent them from coming in, but she scared him enough for him to get trapped holding the doggie door shut to avoid being attacked. Which allowed the pursuing cops time to close distance. He was also letting pukeface catch his breath. That guy eats too many oranges.

Still no official word on the condition of the victim, but the grapevine says she'll survive. This wasn't a couple hardened gun toting criminals in my backyard. More like a couple local punks with dozens of decent/nicer high school kids/athletes friended on Facebook and known for being big partiers. A verbal altercation turned into a shooting and... it's over.

Given the size of your dog, I assume its a pretty big doggie door. Is it big enough for someone to crawl through? Do you think the guy was trying to do that, or just walking up to the door alerted your dog to his presence? Would have been pretty sweet if they guy got stuck halfway through the doggie door when Sausage walked around the corner and found him.

If you were on the run and saw a door with a large doggie door, why would you pick that house to try and enter? They obviously have a large dog, who is probably home all the time given the doggie door.

At this intersection, there is no cross traffic. I can only turn right, joining the flow of traffic. The lane is clearly marked as right turn only, so anyone behind me is also turning right. I can't see any way using a signal accomplishes anything in this situation, other than not giving a cop an excuse to pull me over.

:shrug: I don't even think about using my signal when turning or changing lanes. Doesn't matter if it is obvious, like what you described, or not. I just do it automatically.

My wife makes fun of me over my insistence on using turn signals. I use them in our little closed in neighborhood and she teases me. Me? I don't want to give an officer ANY reason to pull me over. :oldunsure:

Hello, exactly.

Last time I got pulled over was about 5 years ago. Somebody *coughwifecough* didn't put the new tags on the car like she was supposed to. Cop pulls me over.

Went pretty much like this:

Cop: Sir, the tags on your plate are expired. But I ran your registration and it comes back as "paid". Do you have the stickers?

Me: I know we got them. I'm guessing they're in my wife's purse. I'll get them from her as soon as I get home.

Cop: Great. Have a great day and continue to enjoy being a middle-age white man in America.

I'm pretty sure the better use of the $17.99 is at the bar before the flight or sucking down something during the flight.
