....Just walked up to my apartment, knocked on my door, and asked me for gas money. I live in a gated community on the second floor.

What the heck?

bring a baseball bat or something to the door, or rely on jean claude van damme skills, if...and only if, u hint she's suspiscious, and attacks you first.

Now, it's a gated community, so that's suspiscious, how the hell did she get there. it takes somewhat of a trespassing. i believe u gotta "buzz" in first in those or something.

How about a domed community? have u checked out the new simpsons movie, check it out if you haven't. in the meantime, keep fit and have fun.

13 years ago my father had a heart attack while out for a walk (he already had a pacemaker). He knocked on the door of the house he was passing and asked for emergency help, the person shut the door in his face. He almost died getting to the gas station at the end of the street to get to a phone.

She likely was in a desperate situation, why else would you lower yourself to begging on a strangers door? Being in a gated community, I would have told her to a) return to her home and use her phone to call a friend or family member or b) go the the home of the person she was there to see. Otherwise, I would have directed her to the closest gas station or offered to call a tow truck for her.

If anything like this happens again, I would just say, "I'm sorry but I don't keep cash in the house." You could offer to let her use the phone as long as you have a cordless/cell that you can bring outside....Afterwards I would contact whoever is in charge of security/neighborhood watch and describe the incident.

One pig, i could comprehend, yet particularly pigs do not beg for rescuing, do they? I won't even think of of the non-existent clutter container, notwithstanding no single guy or woman would desire to desire to maintain up with the clutter boxes for 40 cats the two. i would not say that the two cats or pigs would desire to thrive in the style of homestead. think of of the care, making plans, & team that shop an animal shield alive. would desire to pigs be saved contained in comparable to in the event that they have been out interior the pig sty? i've got examine that a house can particularly reek even exterior with some thing like 40 cats. think of a similar with 40 pig in a house. i think of I bear in concepts some communicate someplace in N. California of no count if one would desire to maintain even one pig interior the homestead as a puppy. Who cares? that's what i could say whilst it includes a million pig. 40 pigs is fairly yet another count.

She was tresspassing. I'd call the cops. She seems like a desperate drug addict.
