Thiefs suck DIKK.
Ask Aristo how calm I can be, he was with me in the car when one of the rod bearings in the car went out and it was making a horrible noise like the whole motor was going to fall apart., he was almost crying about it and I was cool as a cucumber. LOL, another thing is to **** with my property or myself, do that and you will see how fast i can go from 0 to 100 temper wise..

In California this is most likely going to land you in jail. You can only use lethal force in your or someone else's life is currently in immediate danger or serious bodily harm. Shooting to injure will land you in tons of trouble; shooting to neutralize the threat is the answer.
Sorry but this is the worst advice ever. What if the intruder is on drugs, or drunk and too out of his mind to realize? What if he has a hearing problem? What if he doesn't care??
I've taken a few NRA instructor courses, one of them being for Personal Protection Inside of the Home, and we went into great detail about this subject. If you use lethal force, it is best to keep your mouth shut while being questioned by police until you have some time to clear your head and get your thoughts together (also getting a lawyer is a good idea). Too many people mistakenly talk themselves into handcuffs by simply saying something wrong that may warrant some type of guilt or lying etc. This being CA, the use of lethal force is extremely difficult to get away with!
And no, typically a shotgun is not the best weapon for home defense (debatable) because of its size, and spread pattern is fairly compact even down a hall. You must shoot to neutralize/stop the threat, never to injure or specifically to kill.
With all of that said, I have a Springfield 1911 w/ hollow points close by, and a Mossberg 500 close by as well, because you never know. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it, imo.

Yes, your statement about how racking a shotgun is enough to scare away a thief is terrible, terrible advice. How do you know that the person is simply a common thief? The assumptions you are making are very dangerous.
The fact that I have guns to help defend myself and my family if I truly needed to has nothing to do with your statement that I mentioned above. You don't want to assume anything in a scenario like that. To give people advice that they will be safe enough simply pumping a shotgun to scare away intruders/thieves is simply not a good idea.

I believe we are dealing with people on this forum who can make decisions on their own, know their abilities, and neither need or want to read my advice for how I approach situations. I expect they would follow what they thought was right, how they were trained, etc. so I have no fear in posting my opinions and I do so without reservation.
Would I follow my advice as a way to attempt to scare off an unarmed thief who I did not intend to harm outright initially? Absolutely. At the end of the day I have a loaded shotgun in my hands, so you assuming he could be worse than "common" and could be "crazy" has me covered on both ends of the spectrum.
It is easy to criticize someone's ideas when you provide none yourself.

You have every right to react to any situation that you see best fit, but that does not mean that that is the best or smartest means to do so. In a conversation about life and death and the safety of others, if I do not feel that someone's advice is best, I will give my alternate opinion, as I did.

2c5's, i am not looking for a race but you came off like a racer to me so i called you out, a 10.98 sec street car is not slow by all means, thats a pretty damn fast street car if you asked me, my old GN that i owned for 11 yrs ran 10.92 at 127mph with a 1.51 sixty foot and it was pretty much useless on the streets trying to launch it anywhere above 2psi which i learned how to do over the years, my turbo T has everything done to a 231 V6 motor, other than going to a stage II block which is 271 ci there is not much more I can do to it, with a stage motor and a conservative 22psi tune it would make easily over 800rwhp, the stage motor is a four bolt main and it has 14 bolt heads, the 231 is 2 bolts per main and only 8 bolts on the heads which is where they are weak, but with the right setup and right tune you can easily make them run low to mid 9's all day long and drive them on the streets.

The best or smartest means (which you have yet to state), please enlighten us.
We have different viewpoints and methods, I have stated mine, defended mine, you have done neither.
Dude, 1st of all I have no reason to lie about someone stealing my car or making an attempt to do it and then succeeding, I am happy my car was recovered and I will leave it at that, fingerprints were lifted but cops wont you any info and tell you who the perps were because they know you could take matters into your own hands and they don't want to have that on their hands, I did ask for a police report but was told to go pick it up at the downtown station I am not about to take the time to go get it just to satisfy some lurkers in here or look credible to some haters, I could easily download one, fill up and post it, but why do that right? anyway I am happy my ride is back and we shall leave it at that, right now she is parked in a safe place with guard dogs and a security camera system, whenever i get a itch to ride her I will go pick her up and take it for ride as I always do..
Have a nice day..

Why don't you stop crying and throw a 250 shot of nsx on your car; if the motor holds you might take him.

Not a stage but its got an all billet bottom end with RJC girdle, standard bore, aluminum GN1R heads fully ported, full solid roller top end, and yes it does have the lastest and greatest XFI box installed, its forced fed by a 71mm DBB all billet precision hairdryer, custom headers, razers alky injection system, I could run as much as 26psi on pump and alky injection but right now its at a conservative tune running only 22psi and low timing, this little motor is amazing and it will rev up too 7,200 rpm with no problems at all without falling on its face like most turbo Buicks do on top end, not this one..
lol
