Random Guy
As I was driving home from work tonight I got to thinking about the "Hide in the closet with the gun and shoot the bad guy when/if he opens the door" line of thinking. What I got to thinking was how both entrance doors in a mobile home are usually between the master bedroom (where the grown-ups will be) and the other ones(where the kids will be.)
So it seems to me that if you live in a mobile home and you have a intruder chances are very high you will have to go engage him in order to get to your kids, assuming their there. You also have the added problem of most likely (nearly certainly) having their bedroom directly behind the bad guy needing to be shot.
I'm not as much worried about how I would react, I think I would keep cool enough head to think out shot placement and such to avoid shooting in the kids bedroom but I would love to hear some ideas about how you S&T might handle this type of situation. I just want something simple so I can go over it with my wife. If I get to complicated she'll get lost in the details and not recall what to do if the time ever comes. One day I'll build a house and want have this problem.
Thanks in advanced
