You were lucky they decided to run. It could have been all kinds of ugly, even if you had prevailed in a fight.

You're absolutely right, they were probably armed, or stoned out of their mind. But we had the drop on them and "it" was certainly outgunned. I'm not the only one in the house that has a firearm within reach, and we've drilled on covering the house dozens of times and everyone ended up in their predetermined places PDQ. I'm just happy we didn't have to shoot anyone.
