052 Command and Control a Home Invader
Many gun-owning homeowners don’t think past the act of brandishing their weapon in the event that they catch an intruder on their property. But what happens next is critical. Your goal should be not only to avoid injury to yourself and your loved ones, but also to avoid getting into a situation in which you need to pull the trigger. You want to command and control the intruder until the authorities arrive. To do that, you’ll need more than just a gun.
If your body language or tone of voice betrays insecurity or weakness, the intruder may seize upon a perceived opportunity to turn the tables in his favor. Whether or not you are an aggressive individual in everyday circumstances, in this moment you must act the part. Your verbal commands should be violent and forceful, delivered at a high volume and in simple, direct language. Your tone and language should communicate confidence, seriousness, and a will to do harm if the intruder does not submit to your commands.
Do not simply hold the intruder at gunpoint. A standing posture, with eyes on you, gives him far too much leverage. Use commands to force intruder into a prone or kneeling wall position with his eyes away from you as pictured. Both of these positions will create a significant handicap, causing a serious delay in the event that the intruder attempts to charge you. Keeping his head turned away from you allows you to place a 911 call or have loved ones cross the room and exit the premises, without giving the intruder the opportunity to catch you in a moment of inattention.
Note: Do not attempt to search an intruder and strip him of his weapons alone. Only restrain an intruder if you have others to support you (see page 126 ). Unless you have prior experience, wait for law enforcement.
