brave act by homeowner drives, off three thugs armed with …. his briefcase.  see video at link

This happened in 2010, but the video and reporting has only now surfaced.

What a system.  One of the thugs was sentenced at a “young offenders” institution.
He was 20.  Youth offender? Youth?
Just one of many reasons the so called ‘justice system’ just does not work.

There’s a video at the link of the householder defending and driving off three armed scum.

Interesting

Take a look.

· Andrew Adamson, 59, returned home to find three burglars inside his house
· Masked intruders armed with crow bars had forced way into Kettering home
· Father-of-three bravely fought off thugs while still dressed in dinner jacket
· He said: ‘I was not just going to let them stand by and ransack my house’

· ’I did what any good husband would do - I wanted to protect my home and protect my wife. There was no way I was going to let them go without a fight’

This is the incredible moment a brave great-grandfather fought off three crowbar-wielding thugs while still dressed in his dinner suit after he returned home to find his house being burgled.

Businessman Andrew Adamson, 59, was returning home from a social event with his wife Liz, 58, when he noticed his front door had been forced open and three intruders were inside his property.

CCTV footage, taken from an alleyway outside his home in Kettering, Northamptonshire, captured the terrifying incident and shows the three masked suspects threatening Mr Adamson with a 2ft long crowbar.

The shocking footage has been revealed for the first time after two of the three gang members were jailed for the aggravated burglary.
Mr Adamson, whose wife Liz ran for help as soon as she realised the property was being burgled, was still wearing his dinner jacket and carrying a briefcase when he fought off the attackers.

The father-of-three struggled with the men in the alleyway, outside his front door, and didn’t even back down when they threatened him with the crowbar and a razor blade.

Incredibly, he took on all three of the men entirely by himself and managed to eject them from his property one-by-one before they scarpered down the alley.

‘I was not just going to let them stand by and ransack my house - I did what any good husband would do. I wanted to protect my home and protect my wife.
‘There was no way I was going to let them go without a fight. They say an Englishman’s home is his castle - but I think I just acted on instinct.

‘I was not going to let them get away with it - and somehow I managed to turf them all out of the house one by one.’

SEE THE VIDEO

Another valid reason for ppl to be armed. By which of course I mean guns. The perps are most likely now out and walking around looking for their next victim. How much better it would have been, if this old fellow had a gun and was able to delete all three of the scum. A benefit to society.
He was damn lucky.  There have been numerous cases where the homeowner died and wasn’t even engaged in a fight.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
