Will the cops give you any info as to who he is or how he knows you? Is he just some stalker?

What? Heck, I am ready to kick the crap out of the Jehovahs when they come to my door during the day! Why on Earth would anyone open the door?

Err ever hear of a peep hole? if you dont have one get one. If you get another knock on the door at 3am look through the peep hole and if its nobody you know ask them THROUGH the door what they want. but do not open the fricken door.

you might want to change "i'm with stupid" to something else. :)

seriously, you are lucky (as I'm sure you now realize) he was non-violent. i think the fact that your husband didn't hit him seems to have been the smart thing to do. no need for your husband to go to jail, too.

Get a taser, the thought alone of getting shocked by one of those will probably deter most people like him.
A gun isn't the best choice as from what I've been hearing, if things get to the point where you believe they are going to attack you, shoot to kill. If you only injure them, they will sue you and in most cases win.
It's a very messed up legal system that allows this. :(

Yup, same here. My guess is he was bloody because he had previously visited someone else that was as lenient as GF.



<< The guy is lucky he didn't do that to me.... Standard procedure at my house when some morom pounds on the door at add hours of the night is answer the door with a sidearm. >>

Ok, are we all done pointing out how stupid I was? Or is there anyone else who needs to put their two cents in. :p I don't have a peephole, its a duplex, so its an actual half a house I live in, though a peephole is a very good idea.

geekender: He didn't know me, I assume, I have never seen him before in my life. I think he was just some drunk guy, who was passing by, and last night was my lucky night on his radar. Or maybe he knew someone that lived here before me, he was drunk enough that maybe he thought I was someone else, its possible.

I'm glad to hear you're ok.

Kinda like my mom's friend who found a drunk Indian guy in her bed after she got home once.
Eep.

Girlfriday: I dont know you, but I am glad you are ok. Please listen to all the warnings that have been given so far..

To the other people: Not all of us live in NYC.. If someone knocked on my door @ 3am, I would answer also.. But I would answer, not my fiance.. I would also have a baseball bat.
