Okay, so let's analyze this situation; You're living in this house, maybe with your wife and kids, or your husband and kids, or your parents, or with your older sister or whatever your family situation is.

A hurried report comes through the radio that a very large, as-yet unknown group has invaded your country and is violently forcing themselves into homes and taking hostages, killing any who dare put up resistance.

Suddenly, one of your family members declares that they see some of the group marching towards your door. What will you do?

Personally, I honestly think I would grab the nearest large blunt heavy object and wait behind my front door. That group would have generated a lot of anger in me...

The question doesn't even bear thinking about, as the answer is so god damn obvious.

Although I wouldn't be surprised that in our age of domesticated pussies, a few posters would respond with "Get on my knees and suck my assailants cock, while begging for mercy with tears in my eyes."

Swallow my pride and do whatever will save lives. If I get violent and they outnumber me, they will surely kill me and those around me.

Have you thought that maybe you could save yourself and others for one day, then PLAN AN ATTACK to kill more or catch them off guard?

I'm sure, storming into houses, they were ready for attack - but that may change while you save yourself.

I would say this, but unisex. The leader of the family should do what they can to protect the rest - whether that be the mother, son, whomever.

Conjecture. For all you know, they could just round you up and work you to death in forced labour camps. At least if you do what I say, the worst that can happen is that you die in a blaze of glory while taking of a few of the motherfuckers down with you!
