Hypothetical question by the way.

If I were to point a rifle at him while he was unarmed and posed no threat, would I legally still be allowed to go ahead and shoot him down for invasion?

A hypothetical question:

A burglar enters a private property (obviously.. illegally) and a dog, trying to defend the property of its master, attacked the burglary, injuring him severely. There is no "beware of the dog" sign outside to warn people about the dog but this is also the first time the dog attacked someone.

What would be your OPINION regarding what the authorities should do?

Should the owner of the dog be responsible for the injuries a burglar sustained?
Is the dog at fault?
I apologize for labeling the question hypothetically when it is not :)

Police Raids & Burglar Alarm Systems?




This is a theoretical/hypothetical question (NO, I have NOT committed any crimes!)

I was just curious what happens if police raid a house either with a search warrant/arrest warrant (whether its knock or No-knock warrant) or without a warrant based on exigent circumstances) and the owners/residents are not at home, but they have turned on their burglar alarm system??

I mean when the police enter, by breaking down the door or whatever, and the screeching alarm is going off, what do they do?

Do they just keep searching with the alarm still going off? Do they call the alarm company to turn it off themselves? Do they just disable the alarm themselves in some way (like the same way that they get into locked cars they need to search, with a "Slim Jim" tool to open the door)

I mean obviously the police won’t call themselves, but if no one is at home when they break in, and they don’t know the code to shut off the alarm, then what do they do?

How do they shut it off?
