If they break in they are robbers.If they sneak in thru an unlocked door they are squatters again and may figure they can count on us not wanting to get through the process of kicking them out again.I think too the police will only escort them off the property and not take them to jail.I have yet to find out what the st.Louis police will do.I know they failed to arrest a man I know for violating a PO his wife(who filed for divorce) had against him.After the police were called they talked to him a while and told him to go home.So I am alone on this this.triffid

Im not too much on getting a dog but I can play a radio all night and turning more lights on as long as they cant see me through the curtains.If they can see me then I am a target.Or could be.I was told by a friend that they find people dead alone in houses all the time.triffid

Today I got some light bulbs to put in the front yard.I will get those installed and leave it on allnight.triffid

I put a new bulb in the porch light so it works now.I will leave that on all night.I have a radio hooked up with another indoor light to flip on with a switch.I bought timers too to hook up if I am not here.To switch lights and radio on and off all night If I have to.I will use the sounds of a t-rex if I have to.triffid

leave no window or door unlocked that way its break and enter.
rem .223 is what an M-16 uses, kind of strange for low level users and more so to leave them.
repeat customers can certainly be charged with trespassing and for sure insist on charges for B and E.
