An American couple turned the tables on a burglar they caught ransacking their home by dispensing their own summary justice. Without waiting for the law to arrive, the pair doled out their own punishment to the surprised criminal - they made him clean up the house at gunpoint!

When the police arrived the work-shy burglar had the cheek to complain to them - about having to clean up his mess at gunpoint. But the police officer laughed at Bullock when he complained and told him that anybody else would have shot him dead.



A story with a happy ending!

4. What a loser...

"they made me clean up after myself!" what a cock. Good for them, he really is lucky they didn't just shoot him. If you find someone in your home you really have no way of knowing if they are going to attack you or not.

8. He'll probably sue for false imprisonment.

9. yeah he is lucky that he didn't end up contributing to the mess... posthumonously

10. That could bring a charge of false imprisonment in my state

It may have been morally justified, but it was probably illegal.

12. It was also stupid and poor gun handling

Rule #2: Never point a gun at something you are not willing to destroy.

If deadly force is no longer required, put away the gun.

14. Not really, I'm sure they would've shot him if they had to.

No reason to put away the gun until the police get there.
Hell, I would've made him call the police himself.

"Hello, I'm calling to report that I'm robbing a house right now... I'll be in the laundry room folding pants."

[one-eyed fat man]

16. are you sure?

might be he'd be saying, "I'll be in the laundry room washing out my pants."

11. Wish that burglar would visit my house (nt)
