So today not long after I wake up I hear a knock on the door.
Strange since I am not expecting any deliveries today and we are pretty far off othe beaten path.

So I run down stairs and answer the door.
This guy about my age, dressed in dark clothes and wearing gloves, is standing there. He says that they had been blacktopping the main road and wondered if I would be interested in having our driveway done as well. He said they would do it cheap with the leftover stuff.

RIIIIIIIGHT!

let me explain something here. The County does all this type of work. They never subcontract it out. So I knew this was pretty Much Bullshit. Not to mention I am on the Board that handles the budget for this stuff and we have no alocated any money for this area yet.

Secondly this guy, his truck, and the three people in the truck are all clean. You do not put down asphalt and stay clean. It is not possible.

So I tell him no. He starts to say something about a great deal and I slam the door in his face and lock it. He goes back to the truck and they drive off.
So anyway. I go back to playing EQ and arguing on here about Isreal.

Now about 45 minute later I hear something coming from the back yard. This isnt' that unusual since we have a lot of deer and wild turkeys that come there here and have the occasional Coyote chase them.
I look out my bathroom window which looks over the back yard and I see the same truck. In my back yard! I actually said What the Fuck Yo. (Damn you pesco)
All 4 guys were out of the truck and looking around our barn and into the window of our truck.

I am torn at the time between being really freaked out and Pissed. I threw on my boots grebbed my AR15 and headed outside.
here is pretty much how the conversaion went

Me: What the hell are you all doing back on our property and in our back yard!
Idiot1: Huh? your place?
idiot2: We just wanted to look around. Nice place you have here.
Idiot3: really nice place. You want to sell? (This is the guy that had come to my door earlier)
Me: No we do not want to sell we like living here.
Idiot3: Damn shame. I would love to live here.
Idiot4: What's with the gun.
Me: Well There are 4 people tresspassing on my land and I don't take that lightly.
Idiot3: Who is tresspassing?
Me: you!
Idiot4: nah man We are just looking around We arn't tresspassing.

(note) By now I am pretty pissed. These guys were trying to play stupid and doing a bad job. Also I notices about this time that one of the guys had a pair of Bolt cutters.

Me: You all need to leave now.
Idiot3: We just want to look around for a while.. Come on man. We Ain't causing any problems. (yes he really said ain't)
Me: Look Guys. I am not going to ask again. Leave now.

At this point they all go to get backin the truck and I actually have the gun pointed in thier directions ince I dont' know if they have any weapons in the truck..

One of the guys. I dont' remember which now. Yells at me that they are going to call the cops on me for threatening them. I laughed and told them to have a nice time explaining why they were here. After I was sure they were gone I came back in the house and called the Sherriff. Turns out these guys have been going around trying to rip people off by offering to do paving jobs and never actually following through.

*sigh* people are stupid. this is just more proof.

That was kinda the idea. I could have grabbed the Shot gun since it was closer. But I figured intimidation factor on the AR was higher. The idea was to scare them off without to much confrontation. it worked.

I think either they were to shocked/scared to move, or they figured that if he slammed the door in their faces he was a very angry guy. With angry people that come out with guns some people belive its best to talk the guy down so he doesn't fire shots at you when you run away. That and if you ran its more proof for any kind of suit that you were up to no good.

ECP:

It's illegal to manufacture an automatic weapon unless you're a liscensed manufacturer.

In addition, even if it weren't, it'd still be illegal for you to actually own said automatic weapon, as any automatic weapon made after 1986 is illegal for civilian use.

To own an automatic weapon in the U.S., a few prerequisites must be met;

1) The weapon was manufactured after 1986
2) You must pass a federal background check, performed by the BATF
3) You must submit fingerprint data to the BATF
4a) You must have the signoff of a chief LEO in your area
or
4b) You may list the weapon as a "corporate asset" if you have a corporation
5) You must pay $200 to the BATF to recieve a tax stamp
6) You must have at least $3000 to pay for your weapon, because I'll be damned if you can find something cheaper than that.

you must have a licence because it takes longer than that jsut to do the background check.

So its legal in AZ to point a gun at somone in your yard? here in Fl Its potential trouble. I think it would have been best to call the police and let them handle the problem myself, if they had been carrying it would have been a nasty scene, you might have gotten sued or have had some hearing problems for a few hours

I live in Indiana. Yeah next time I will let people break into my car, house, storage unit, barn, whatever and let them take whatever they want. After all it is wrong to point a gun at someoen right?

Police have a 40 minute responce time to my area.
And unlike some people I prefer not to be a victim. I stand up for my rights.
And once again just to prove your idiocy, it takes only a couple minutes to Run a NICs check.

I could have held the idiots there at Gun point till the police arived and had them arrested. Instead I let them go. If they had refused to leave and made a threatening move towards me I could have legally shot them. It is the same way in Florida. You just don't know jack about the law.
