my neighbor is going to kill me...lol (Dear lord we hope so)
So apparently I have a crazy neighbor. He was standing outside today when my Subaru alarm beeped, and he essentially told me if he heard that noise every morning, "you might get your throat cut in your sleep." I was nice to the guy from the start because I don't need to make enemies my 2nd day in there, but apparently this guy is nuts.
I'm not too freaked out considering I have a 12 gauge sawed off pistol grip moss 509 semi-auto. But I did take the first two rocksalt rounds out and swapped in buck-shot.
What's my best action at this point, aside from making the news?

actually, I just decided that I am. I'm going to make a complaint and get a report from the police. That way if something does happen, there's a record of this event. I may be a ***** like mrmiatagi, but if someone breaks into my apartment like he said he would, then there won't be much of a trial after I protect myself... again.

he has to either be on my property at night or be in my house. Aside from that, its a judgment call, and a risk I'm not willing to take. It would be cool if I could just shoot at people in traffic though.

I had an incident involving a few guys making an attempt at a home invasion next door and then stealing one of my cars and me emptying a Glock into said car, the investigating officer asked for an explanation that would satisfy his boss so that there wouldn't be an attempted murder charge brought against me.
