Good story except for the gun. Guns are for the weak. You've already proven you dont need a gun to defeat the crackheads. May I suggest a baseball bat instead?

Wow, I think I would consider moving, considering you have a small child. Here in Texas, you bully your way into someone's home, you may just get blown out of it.

    Cigarettes Not Smoked

17 years ago 0 10 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Im 46 years old and just had to fight the local crack heads (two weeks ago). Yes really! A knock down dragged out fist fight like when I was in high school at age 16 and a new smoker. Not one person, but two of them. Not 46 yr olds but early to mid 20's(smokers). They both went to jail looking like the elephant man.(probably because they are smokers). I was in my own big yard and I tried to retreat back to the house and they followed and I found myself getting (a little) winded and was worried they would get me tired first then beat me up. (Not too winded cause I quit cigs a year ago). Too bad for them that they continue to smoke because they went to Jail tired, winded, beat up and embarassed. One even tried to come into the house where the baby was. NOT TODAY CRACKHEAD! I planted the phone right into the crack heads eye socket breaking his cheek bone. Not only have I stopped smoking, but the crack head ain't smoking either cause he is still in Jail. Do you think he will thank me for helping him quit smoking when he gets out? I have saved over $2000.00 bucks from not smoking. I already bought me a new computer tower, a new lawn mower, and most recently a crack head eliminator. A mossburg pump shotgun with pistol grip and adjustable stock with the shortest barrel allowed by law. ($350) with a light kit mounted on the barrel ($250). I still have money behind my dresser. I toss at least 5 bucks a day back there and only use the money for the small things that come up that I usually would have to go into debt to buy or just do without, like the crack head eliminator. I would have never paid that much for a gun had I not quit smoking and had the money stashed back there. I even go for the highest quality of everything I buy now because I CAN AFFORD TO NOW. What a great feeling. The best part is I can breath and I can keep up with the young drunks and crack heads around here. These crack heads have bullied their way into several homes around here. Not this one. They tried. They lost.
