Panic, the try to call 911. I always fear I'll wont remember to access the phone app. Then I'll hide and hope for the best.

My phone is glued to my hand, so I would dial 911 and attend to what I need to. No one has to actually talk on the phone with the operator. You just have to call. They will send someone and they will know what is going on with the background noise. Don't get caught with your phone in your hand. That will only make them madder.

My plan would be to hopefully smack them with the baseball bat I keep close by. If they come in the front door, I am screwed, but if they come in any other way; I have plenty of walls to hide behind, so when they go to walk into the room; they get a bat in their face. I won't stop until they really can't move.

I have a police trained German Shepherd (or like one of my neighbors son's said last Halloween, Is that a K-9? lol) Now if they have managed to get past her, I would already be aware as she would let me know something was happening. Then I would get my gun and shoot as many times as necessary. Now keep in mind this means they got past my dog (also known as my baby)and
something horrible had happened to her. My mindset would change from panic to pure anger so I would just continue to unload and reload as many times as necessary. Nobody messes with my baby!

I'd probably grab my phone and a weapon (maybe my Pure Wand) and try to hide or jump out a window before I called the police.

He would take care of them himself, during the the same time I am calling the police.

I can't honestly see calling the police being any faster than grabbing the gun?

Call the police, call a neighbor, and hide with a makeshift weapon. I don't have kids to protect, so I wouldn't go looking for a fight.

Well if they managed to get past 2 dogs that weigh over 100 pounds and do bite, the electronic home security system, my Beretta, and Alan's 6-shooter, then I guess we'd stand there and stare at them in awe.

Call the police and barricade myself in the bathroom. Once I get my gun license, though, it'll be a different story.

I believe I would be calling the police to come and pick up some dead bodies. Seeing how there are several loaded guns I can get in my hands in a matter of seconds. (and no the kids cant get to them for all of you that are worried about it) If someone is breaking into my house, they are there to do harm. I wont wait until I find out what they are up to.

I am a petite woman--I would never try to go at anyone by myself. I'd call the cops.

Grab one of my guns. then call cops. After all police come after and incodent or attack happens, thy rarely prevent them. Gotta be prepared.

Grab the shotgun over the mantle, point it at the intruder, tell them not to leave, call the police, then tie them to a chair. In that order preferably, but if the shotgun goes off, oh golly gee I'm sorry you trespassed...
