Would you break into someone's house?

[normiss 898]

So say....someone had something of yours that you needed back...they tried to give it back a few days ago but you were too busy partying to be bothered with them...then you can't get ahold of them the day you need the item...would you break into their place to get it back without a care in the world?

I've had this happen to me before. We took in a girl who was in the dumps in life and spent time in the ER after an overdose. Tried to help her get back on her feet and when she completed her drug treatment program, she hightailed it out of there without so much as a word. During the time she was with us, she was having her social security check mailed here. Well, she forgot to have the address changed, and we were getting her checks for a couple of months. She showed up the first month after she left to pick up the check the day it arrived. The next month, I was in Florida and my wife at work 20 minutes away. She stopped by, seeing no one was at home and seeing her check on the dining room table through the window, she couldn't be bothered to wait for my wife to come home, so she went around back and broke in a window to get her damn mail...

To this day she has avoided us whenever possible... Fucking no-sense bitch...

Abosolutely not, must not have been that important if you brushed them off to go party. If I found out you broke into my house I'd call the police for breaking and entering.

I'm thinking this happened to him, with the way it's worded. Not the other way around.

Nope if you/ they where to busy to get it the other day then they/you just gonna have to wait.

As a general rule, the better it felt when you said it, the more trouble it's going to get you into.

'

that says it right there, they screwed up and now are actually considering a break in because they were too buy "to be bothered" before?



sounds you are worried a 'friend' is going to break into your place.....

Imust refute the term you used in your reply..especially after hearing that he and a accomplice REMOVED MY FUCKING DOOR!!!!!

I'm constantly let down with people's lack of:
respect
consideration
morals
honor
integrity
trust

all of these things used to mean something to people.

Ummmm cops... call them... go home to the magic bus and protect your stuff

I hesitate to do that...we don't do that at the dz...or at least we didn't USED to do that...

[livendive 8]

Depends on how good a friend it is and how important the item is. Still, I would probably only do it with their knowledge. (i.e. phone conversation including "Sorry you can't meet me...which window should I go through") If they wouldn't give permission, I wouldn't do it.

that was part of my argument as well...simply contacting me would have resulted in him gaining access!

[lisamariewillbe 1]

DUDE he took your door off and broke into your house. Breaking and entering is illigal....

Call the cops if you can prove it. That was illegal. Your "Acquaintance" is certainly not a friend.

I'm surprised at how many people here thought you were the one considering the break-in (especially with the way you laid out the scenario). It must be that unsavory icon you're using

Now, what if you have personal property at someone's place and they actively avoid any honest attempts you make to retrieve your property?

I'd still find another way to sort it out that clearly breaking the law and breaking into their place...that's just plain wrong no matter how you look at it.

If there's any kind of emotion/outrage on your part, and this guy really made a dickhead move, (so you can't count on him being reasonable), then you're the worst person to try to settle it.

If he didn't steal anything, then all you can do is replace your door and separate yourself from the guy. It's not your job to teach him morals and common sense. His parents already failed in that regard.

I understand your pissed off Mark, but before it degenerates even more:

If you find yourself starting a thread specifically about another poster, I strongly urge you to reconsider. Personal threads are silly, usually pointless, and mostly devolve into flame fests. Such threads are viewed with the utmost skepticism by the moderators, so be prepared for them to be removed without notice.

Also, trying to dress your attacks up as a poll (poll: is Joe an idiot? poll: should Jack admit he's wrong?, etc) is a not very clever way to disguise a personal attack, and will not be tolerated.
