I would call the police, get a knife, call my mom and then attack.It was definitely a bad decision it was a home invasion.
ReplyDeleteIt would be bad because he broke into our home and I would beat him up without a knife.
ReplyDeleteI think he did the right thing to do but if the kid would have done something he would have not have any charges or any major charges.Because if someone trasspases into your house and they were armed you can do some thing to them.And idont know why he would get high of that and why did he even go to decorate it was alittle more like he was drunk and not high.
ReplyDeletei would of called the police and then my mom. if my mom was just next door then im pretty sure she would do something to keep me safe until the police got there.
ReplyDeleteion knoe what i woulda did !
ReplyDeleteI don't really decorate for Christmas so if he does it then it's a bonus. I'm going to ask if he can do my New Year's decorations.
