‘Honey, I’m Home!’ A Drunk, Looking for Companionship, Mistakes Neighbor’s Home for His ‘Friend’s’ Place

In the dead of night, around 3:25 a.m., a booze-soaked genius in Rapid City, South Dakota decided that was prime time to crawl through a window for a late-night hook-up. The problem was, the intoxicated moron was so far gone he couldn’t tell one house from the next on the 600 block of Saint James Street.

He was apparenlty convinced he was breaking into his “acquaintance’s” place next door…because nothing says “Honey, I’m home! I brought you cheezy double-beef burrito!” like jimmying a window at zero-dark-thirty while hammered, seeking some companionship from that barfly he met a while back.

The homeowner of the wrong house, rudely awakened by all the racket, wasn’t in a particularly romantic mood. As the over-served man wiggled his way in, the resident delivered a single, well-placed shot intended to stop him. Boom— the drunk’s Darwin Award application had been submitted.

The window wiggler suffered a serious, but non-life-threatening new ventilation, got hauled to the hospital, and is now facing charges. The good news for him is chicks dig scars. Because scars are like tats, but with better stories.

Mr. Darwin nearly claimed another victim, but apparently even natural selection sometimes takes a coffee break when fools and drunks are involved.

Pro-tip for guys looking for late-night hookups: just knock like a normal person. The burritos are optional.

Here’s a teaser from KOTA TV.

A resident shot a home intruder early Saturday morning. Authorities say the man tried to break into a residence in the 600 block of Saint James Street.
Police responded to the home at around 3:25 a.m. after reports of a shooting. When officers arrived, they found a man with a single gunshot wound. He was transported to a local hospital, where he received treatment for serious but non-life-threatening injuries…

Police said the case appears to involve justified home defense, with criminal charges against the intruder pending. The investigation is ongoing.

    Booze-soaked/intoxicated-by-some-other-means genius’s like this happens more than you realize. Not all of them get shot, some get a warning and see the gun and somewhere in their dimmed senses something screams ‘RUN!’ and they do, some push the boundary even more and get shot at and it misses if they are very lucky that night or the home owner missed on purpose to say ‘the next one is gonna really hurt’ and somewhere in their dimmed senses something screams ‘RUN!’ and they do, and then some just go too far convinced they are really wanted inside and end up getting shot and somewhere in their dimmed senses something screams ‘WHYYYYYY!’ if they are still breathing.

    Around here its not unknown, heck, we’ve had them on occasion banging on our door. It turns out, after our area was annexed by the city, it became a popular thing for gals wanting to get rid of guys hitting on them in bars to tell them “Hey, sure, I gotta go right now but here’s my address so I’ll be there in about 20 minutes so come on.” or something similar and they would give them a made up address somewhere in our area and the next thing ya know some badly intoxicated guy would be showing up looking for the address convinced he had found it and end up trying to get in or beating on doors and windows. Its not funny at all, some of them have gotten shot trying to break in. You don’t take chances and play 20 questions with a stranger climbing through your window at zero-dark-thirty to find out if they are just some drunk being stupid.

    Left wing violence criminality…and yes trans again: 2 minors, 1 ‘they’ arrested for vandalizing proposed ICE facility in Utah.

    “Three people have been arrested, including two minors and a man who identifies with ‘they/them’ pronouns, for … vandalizing a proposed Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Utah.
    …”

    [note: ‘they/them’ pronouns is non-binary which is the third of the three main groups of the ‘trans’ spectrum: male > ‘she/her’, female > ‘he/him’, non-binary > ‘they/them’]

    D.C. Tries to Save Its Magazine Ban as Benson Sends Shockwaves Beyond the District.

    “The panic around Benson v. United States is no longer limited to Washington, D.C. After the D.C. Court of Appeals struck down the District’s ban on magazines holding more than 10 rounds, anti-gun officials moved fast to contain the damage. D.C. is now asking the full court to rehear the case, while states like New Jersey are already trying to keep the ruling from influencing their own fights over AR-15 and magazine bans. That tells you Benson is bigger than one local case, and the people defending these bans know it.

    That is what makes Mark Smith’s video worth watching. His breakdown focuses on D.C.’s desperate attempt to save its law, but the bigger story is what this ruling could mean nationwide. This is not just about one city trying to preserve one gun-control measure. It is about anti-gun jurisdictions trying to stop a pro-Second Amendment ruling from becoming the case that helps bring magazine bans to the U.S. Supreme Court in a serious way.

    How SBRs and SBSs Got Trapped in the NFA’s 1934 Gun Control Scheme.

    “The story of how short-barreled rifles (SBRs) and short-barreled shotguns (SBSs) ended up regulated under the National Firearms Act (NFA) of 1934 is one of the clearest examples of unnecessary federal overreach, bureaucratic accident, and enduring infringement on Second Amendment rights. What began as a panicked response to 1930s gangster violence morphed into a permanent regulatory trap that punishes law-abiding Americans for owning common, useful firearms, configurations that have legitimate sporting, defensive, and historical purposes, while doing virtually nothing to stop actual crime.

        Only 4? Thanks for bring that to my attention, I left one out…here ya go…

        The Australian Prime Minister Just Learned Appeasing Islam Doesn’t Work.



        BREAKING: Australian Prime Minister Albanese went to a Sydney mosque for Eid prayers to stand against Islamophobia, only to end up being threatened, with everyone screaming “Allahu Akbar” at him.

        He just sits there terrified, not knowing what to do.
        [video]

        BREAKING: Soon after leaving the mosque where he had just been threatened, the Australian Prime Minister was heckled and called a dirty dog and a pig.

        He wanted to show solidarity with the Muslim community and almost got lynched.

        You can never appease these people.
        [video]

        Appeasement doesn’t work. Islam is not a religion; it’s a sociopolitical movement with a theological veneer that seeks to dominate the entire world.

        And Leftists like Albanese have assisted them in that goal.
        …”

        1. “Islam is not a religion; it’s a sociopolitical movement with a theological veneer that seeks to dominate the entire world.” THANK YOU! I’ve been looking for a succinct phrase to define that crowd and you have given me a jewel!
