Since we seem to be becoming Home Invasions, Strategies and Tactics for the time being, I thought I'd add the following link to a useful database of home invasion media reports. I would like to note in passing that I also supplied this link on a certain recent thread on the subject.
While anecdotes do not equal data, they can supply some illuminating information, given a large enough collection of them. There are several places which complie media stories regarding armed citizens defending themselves with firearms. One of those is Clayton Cramer's blog, which also uses 'tags' to assign general topics to the stories collected.
One of the tags Cramer uses is 'home invasion.'
You can see the databse for the current year - which will update as more stories are added - by clicking on the link: http://www.claytoncramer.com/gundefenseblog/labels/home invasion.html .
Read away... and please, let's refrain from posting every home invasion story we find in the media here, UNLESS it is analyzed by the OP and used as a teaching opportunity. Cramer already collects the stories, there's no need for us to do it too.
