No... he's not a "poor man." He is someone who either should have gotten himself to a shelter or who had abused substances so that he either couldn't find his own home or wasn't allowed into a shelter. Those both require agency.

I guess one last option is that he is someone who is so mentally ill that he wants to be outside, and that does make him a "poor man" because liberals think it is kinder to leave him wandering around than to commit him for care.

I'd get a ring camera and a sprinkler. Should take care of it.

This is what the police think, based on the evidence they found. (It’s gross and I won’t be sharing it.) I get up later on Fridays, then it was the weekend.


Do you not do yard work back there? Mow, etc?


Probably not since she rents.

I’ve been pretty f’ing drunk. I’ve even been pretty f’ing drunk in unfamiliar places, but I can’t imagine being so drunk that I can’t find my house/hotel. Like wow.
Oh I have worse stories than that.

Like anything else you need a layered defense strategy. I would start with a moat. Followed by a laser alarm at the perimeter should they clear the moat. Would activate flood lights and wake the Dobermans. Should the intruder make it past the dogs deploy flash bangs to disorient the intruder and wake the neighbors. If that doesn’t stop them then use gun as they are entering your home. Will most likely have witnesses by then and would be easy self defense case if intruder continued through deterrent gauntlet to your home since you would be in imminent fear of great bodily harm or death.
