When a man broke into Karen Dolley’s home on Thursday night, her training in medieval combat came in handy. So did her sword.
I'm shocked!! How would a nice guy like you know about zig-zags?Well, if criminals would have the manners to announce their presence and their intentions, then the homeowner could make an informed decision based on the intruders intentions and/or the value of whatever said intruder wants. Perhaps even haggling...
"Hello! I'm a burglar, just here to grab your TV so I can sell it for a few bucks and go get some pot."
"Wait a second... I just bought that TV. I have a bag of pot in here, I'll split it with you if you leave the TV. Save you a trip to the pawn shop, and besides, you'd probably hurt your back. That damn thing is heavy!"
"OK, cool. That works for me. Thank you, and have a good evening... Hey, you know if your neighbor might have any zig-zags?"
