Frightening stuff here. The bad guys clearly had very bad intentions after arming themselves and getting cabling (presumably to tie up the homeowners). What scares me is how long these guys were able to move around inside the home unnoticed. Also, good on the homeowner and his girlfriend for being armed, although I personally wouldn’t sleep in bed with a firearm in my bed, I prefer to just have it handy. (H/T r/firearms)

WRAL published a piece with Wake County Sheriff Donnie Harrison regarding the rise of home invasions, and thefts from vehicles in southern and eastern Wake county It appears that most of the incidents are happening when people leave their vehicles or homes unlocked and the criminals are taking advantage of this. What Can You Do? Lock your car, and hide your junk. Seriously. If you leave something valuable in your car (anything they can be …

Oh boy, this one is a doozie. John was lucky because the intruder robbed him, but left him alive. Yeah, so lucky that he was only robbed, and not robbed and murdered. I guess I’m lucky that I’ve made it 29 years without being murdered too. If you come face to face with an intruder and you’re not prepared, lie down and do not look at them. Pretend to have a heart attack or breathing …

Today on the Today Show, Jeff Rossen talked about how to protect your family from a home invasion. It starts out pretty benign. Keep your bedroom doors open so you can hear noises, bring your car keys into the bedroom so you can punch the panic button, etc But then… Zeins also suggests keeping another item in your bedroom: “Buy a can of wasp hornet spray in the hardware store or the supermarket, keep it …

From Reddit: “Cousin just posted this from his facebook, guy tried to kick in his door only to be met with an ar-15 on the other side. He’s keeping him under citizens arrest till the cops arrive.” I have two things to say about this: Good on the homeowner for being armed and willing to protect himself. How far downhill has our society slid that when someone is in fear for his life, his first …

Those high powered assault rifles have no use by law abiding citizens in our country! Amiright? A man in Henderson, NC used his AR-15 to defend his life from a violent home invader yesterday morning. Just before 10am the homeowner heard a noise that made him retrieve his AR-15 from under his bed. He the confronted the home invader who fired first, and the homeowner then shot back. The Einstein like criminal missed with his …

I was told a story recently about an incident that took place in the Triangle involving a concealed carry permit holder, some local police officers, and huge amounts of derp. I’m sharing the story with you because its humorous, and there’s a lesson. I was told the story 4th or 5th hand, so I can’t vouch for the complete accuracy of it, but here goes: Police officers were called to respond to a home alarm …

A SC man was the victim of a home invasion while he was in the shower recently. He got out of the shower, retrieved a firearm, confronted the home invaders firing a shot in the process. A Cameron man called authorities Wednesday after firing a shot at would-be burglars inside his residence. He said he was taking a shower about 3:20 p.m. when he heard a noise coming from his living room. He said he …

I think this is a pretty good reason. Last year there was a pretty heinous home invasion in downtown Raleigh, in a “good” neighborhood. pleaded guilty to rape, sex offense, robbery with a dangerous weapon and assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury. I carry at home because if someone gets the jump on me, I won’t have time to open the safe and get my gun.

The Blaze is reporting a video of a New Jersey mom who was brutally beat by a scumbag thug after he broke into her home and the entire incident was caught on video. WARNING: This video is graphic, and I wouldn’t recommend watching it if you can’t stomach these sorts of things. What I find to be scariest about this incident is that this guy didn’t break into her home demanding money, or drugs, or …
