This is a thread about how to secure your property, right? What does zucchini have to do with that?

A good zucchini can pack quite a whallop when hurled at a trick or treater.

Teen Shot 3 Times During Toilet Paper Prank

Monday, October 13, 2008
SOLON TOWNSHIP, Mich. — A toilet paper prank has led to the shooting of a 14-year-old by a southwestern Michigan man who believed strangers were trying to break into his home.

The Grand Rapids Press and WZZM-TV report the victim and four other teens were pulling the prank about 1 a.m. Sunday at a home in Solon Township, about 20 miles northeast of Grand Rapids. Kent County sheriff's Lt. Jerry Miedema said the teens were intent on draping the house in toilet paper, while the homeowner's "intent was to come out shooting."

Police say three shots were fired from a 12-gauge shotgun, striking the 14-year-old in the chest, stomach and leg. He is recovering at a local hospital. The homeowner was not arrested, but a prosecutor is looking into possible charges.

No doubt the homeowner will be acquitted of all charges.

The children in my neighborhood are all quite well-behaved, and do not pull pranks like this.
And even if they did, shooting is a bit of an over-reaction to having toilet paper tossed into your trees.

Hmmm... Generally I would have use a taser on the brats - but you have to admit throwing filthy excrement-stained toilet paper into your trees is very abusive.

That, and the fact that the child wasn't shot fatally. It looks like this upstanding gentleman just aimed for the child's legs, which is acceptable given the circumstances. A few good shots to blow out the little criminal's knees, make him think twice about throwing s-h-i-t around in future!

This is the biggest slice of overgeneralized nonsense that you have offered up here so far. If there was an infraction for making untrue gross generalizations you would be banned by now.

For example: You don't even know all the children in your neighborhood, and even if you did, you couldn't follow them all the time unless you were God or Santa Claus. We know you're not.

I guarantee that ALL of the children in your neighborhood would not be classified as well behaved. A bunch of dirty little masterbators who swear like pirates and take the Lord's name in vain at every occasion for no reason whatsoever. Each one probably needs to be spanked just to get it to mow the lawn on a regular basis.

You must think that you are very accepting of people, but how are you going to feel when some little zombie torches your car by mistake with shaving cream and a lighter on Halloween? You won't think that's a prank then, will you?

You're just like the French, who allowed the Germans to walk all over them, and the English, who are giving up to the islamofascists.

How do you know that I don't know all the children in my neighborhood? I know most of them by name. Do you even know how many children there are in my neighborhood? I doubt it, since you don't even know where I live. It happens to be a rather small, very friendly subdivision, and when we moved in, we made a point of introducing ourselves to our neighbors.
Every evening when I take my dog for a walk, the elementary and middle school age kids are all out playing, and many of them join me and the dog on our walk. They come over to my house often to play with my dog - so often, in fact that my husband jokes that the dog has his own fan club. The older kids often walk dogs around the neighborhood as well, and they always speak to me when we pass, and are always polite.

Mac and cheese? I think not.

Roast chicken, quinoa topped with sauteed onions and mushrooms, yellow squash baked with onions, garlic, tomatoes, and herbs, steamed broccoli topped with melted extra sharp cheddar, and chilled mugs of Guinness.

OK then, what's the spiritual essence of broccoli? What's the spiritual essence of a vile tar-like brew consumed by drunken Irish terrorists?

You're just like the French, who allowed the Germans to walk all over them, and the English, who are giving up to the islamofascists.

To be fair to the French, they're also allowing the Islamofascists to walk all over them as well.

I believe this is what's known as "grooming".

Do you even know how many children there are in my neighborhood? I doubt it, since you don't even know where I live.

It'd be easier to keep an accurate count if you didn't keep on snacking on them, that's for sure.

Since all food comes from living things, it has a spiritual aspect as well as a physical aspect. Just because you don't believe that broccoli or barley have a spirit, that doesn't mean they don't.

No, it's known as being a good neighbor.

No, I have never been in trouble with the law. We introduced ourselves to the neighbors in order to make friends.

Bully for you. Your addictions have nothing to do with my relationship with my neighbors.

In liberal double-speak, perhaps.

My neighbors don't appear to have addictions. There is no crime in my neighborhood. People behave themselves because it's the right thing to do, not because they live in fear of some mythical DoF goon squad breaking down their door in the middle of the night.

Then explain to me why you Wiccans eat aborted babies??? Because I'd consider THAT cannibalism.... or do you not consider them human since they're aborted before birth?

It's a serious question, witch. I expect a serious answer.
