UNHoly Crapola, talk about Cojone’s of Solid Stainless Steel…!!!
All respect to the elderly property owner for doing the “legal” thing and detaining the dude.
Other people might not have been so thoughtful and this guy would be one more missing persons case that never gets cleared.
True that. He too elderly.
They said “elderly” a ton in that press release. Couldn’t they just be homeowners after the first adjective don’t ya think?
If the Elders didn’t go to bed at 7:30, maybe he would have realized people were home.
It is offensive to use the term “elderly“ in this age of cancel culture, please refrain from such an abusive term in the future. “Age afflicted,, like fine wine, not whipper snappers anymore” are better terms to use in this day and age.
There is some truth to greater vulnerability with age….such a macho culture we desecrate nature and deny aged need more help etc. “Age afflicted” sounds worse than it is and “Not whipper snappers anymore” fine for conversations but journalism not so much.
Just a number? HA! Number of afflictions AND they vary depending on how privileged ones life was, particularly how stable and free from chronic stress.
Offensive to say elderly? How stupid. We say whatever we want, elderly, mother, father, old fart, child, boy , girl. You say what you want, but do not tell others what they can say, that is offensive. We will not refrain from any speech we want, grow up, it is not up to you and your kind to determine how I or anyone else speaks.
it was humor. they aren’t being serious. relax.
Looks kinda like Dermot Mulroney.
Good thing he was older if he were young they would arrested his ass also for being sophious of Soom dumb shit
That’s spooky. I’m glad he wasn’t a violent pervert to the folks at home.
Great restraint homeowner. Not killing the guy outright. You could have!!
I know someone that killed a guy and he has never been the same. He shot him in the leg but he died of blood loss Sad all the way
California has one of the weakest/
wierdest [castle doctrine]&[stand your ground law]. It pretty much states you can’t use deadly force unless your in imminent fear for your life and be justifiable beyond reasonable doubt. Like the intruder would basically need to posses a weapon. It gave an example of a drunk guy Breaking into his neighbor’s and the neighbor shot him while he was unarmed and the homeowner was charged with murder. So always be sure to cover your ass and think it through as best as u can.
One great example of why law-abiding citizens should own a firearm. Kudos to this couple protecting themselves and their property.
And a dog. Don’t forget the dog. Ours never would have let this guy in. Or at the very least, woken up the neighborhood as he the tried. A dog can buy you time. The homeowners are lucky they were alive to even get to their gun.
Our dog barks at most everything, but after 10 years, she’s taught me to hear the difference between her barks for: the neighbors’ cars, rats and small critters under the house, or an unusual vehicle or large critter.
Wow. Just wow
The Trolls are disappointed that the situation was resolved without copious bloodshed and gratuitous violence,,
Sounds like youre disappointed.
From the looks of this guy….notice….white, no tats visible and good hair….you’d probably be more effective with a barrage of psychotropic drugs. I would think his journey from Oklahoma to the kitchen of a place in Fort Bragg could be a new reality show.
Send him back to Oklahoma.
Very creepy and terrifying. To wake up to a stranger wearing your clothes and drinking your wine? YIKES
Good this the intruder was not a black guy in his own apartment eating ice cream. He’d be dead for sure. Sounds like a 5150.
He looks pretty good for 71!
That’s probably because he is 39.
‘”This soup is just right”
At LEAST he wasn’t wearing Granny’s Panties – that would have been even creepier!
Was the door locked & dead bolted? It took a lot of talking to convince my mother to lock her doors, (she too was an elderly woman in Mendo Co) but she finally made it part of her routine.
I bet they are traumatized but good reaction on their part & fortunately a quick response from LEO.
that dudes my dad its sad to see him in this state
I’m sorry dude. Your dad’s a good guy. I promise. Got the chance to meet him
