I don't normally write blogland stuff because most of my life is uninteresting (relatively), but this just happened and I'd like to vent this cuz I'm a bit nervous.
Okay so it's like 10PM CST and I'm playing Stellaris with a friend, when we get a buzz at our door (I live in a secured apartment building). I go to see who it is, but no one answered and I go back to my computer. 30 Seconds later my mom calls me on me to check out the hallway because some forget-stick is constantly plowing into walls and making noise.
I go out there and see this 5'9"-10" spick drunkardly walking around the hallway, but focused solely on the door down the hall from me. I ask him what or who he's looking for and he starts trying to be discrete about it, saying "supplies" or "good stuff" and smiling and saying it's all cool. I tell him if he's looking for weed or drugs or some stuff, I don't care, just do it somewhere else.
Just to be safe, I get my rifle and load it.
I go back to my computer, only to have to go to the hallway again because he was knocking loudly on someones door for a solid 30 seconds. Annoying af. I tell him people are trying to sleep, it's late at night, and if he doesn't need to be here, get going, cuz I've never seen you around here. He takes it as a threat and starts trying to intimidate me. Starts threatening me, trying to get me to flinch, etc. All that stupid stuff "tough guys" try to do. Real intimidating smh. I just keep telling him to get lost, so he doesn't get himself into trouble or piss other people off. In the mean time I get my mom to call the cops. He stares at me for 10 seconds eye-to-eye and says that he'll remember me and find my ass later.
At one point while he's threatening me, he reaches into the back of his waistband, and I assume for my safety and my mom's, that he has a gun. He scatters quickly knowing the police are called. And that's that. During the second portion of this event, I was contemplating getting my rifle and either plugging a .303-sized hole through his chest, or incapacitating him so the police could actually bag him.
In hind-sight, I don't know which way would've been better. Shooting him or incapacitating him, or doing what I did by "talking him down." I kind of wanted to shoot him simply because I don't like tweaker-friends and he's threatening to harm me.
