        The girl is very brave. How creepy can it get. I glad that she took out a large kitchen knife to protect herself. Family needs some kind of security system in case he goes through the same window. Otherwise, since she saw his face, I hope cops catch him before anyone gets hurt.

        Wait what you can defend yourself with something other than a gun? That's impossible she must have super powers, that or she has blatant disrespected for 2a. A gun is the only answer to defending yourself.
