I can kind of relate to how you must have felt . 2 weeks ago my brother had 4 guys trying to break into his house while he was away . The mate house sitting was crapping himself big time and I don’t blame him . They then forced the rear yard gate and abused his dog ( American Staffy ) which sent the poor thing running for cover . Eventually when he called the Cops they got in their car and left . The Cops then arrived , entered the house and busted the house sitter for having a bong . Good one fellas , great to see where your priority was .
My brother and family returned home and he then decided he had to clear his entire grow space . I took what I could , another couple mates took a few and the rest he drove out and hid in the woods .
He’s now installed security cameras and cancelled his coastal holidays trip because of these scumbags .
We know the vehicle and know who at least a couple of them are .
I wanted to go after them but it’s a tricky thing knowing they also know where he lives if things get nasty .
I have to at times suppress the urge to oblige the same deal back and let the smarter option hold fort .
Without sounding like a meathead , these guys aren’t aware of me but I now have my chainsaw inside near my front door . If your going to enter my house uninvited I’ll give you something to think about .
I’m now questioning with my job keeping me periodically away from home if I want to even grow anymore .
