hmm i have been scanning this thread for a lil while, and i have to reply.... using a TASER (and even a handgun or melee weapon like a baseball bat) for self-defense, might actually be ILLEGAL in your state, and I HAVE HEARD and READ about there having been SOME LEGAL PRECEDENTS in various states that have happened in actual court cases with real people, of course: a person who lives in a house can actually get SUED by the burglar / invader, who was attacked in self-defense with any weapon at all. I even heard of a case once, where a person who shot a burgler from inside their own home, went to prison because the burglar either died or had bad injuries from the self-defense.... now that's fucked up. It is very fucked up and unfortunately some state laws are against the rights of the homestead and owner or resident of any abode. I would definitely consult your attorney for what you CAN do and CANNOT do, legally, because people are fucked up, and IF ANYTHING DOES HAPPEN, for example, he breaks in and goes after you ... god forbid... if he gets hurt or you defend yourself to the point where he might flee, he COULD actually take YOU to court and file a suit or countersuit against you for damages because you attacked him in your own home. NOW, I am NOT SAYING that this will happen, nor am I saying that you have no recourse, OF COURSE you should defend yourself and keep this guy away ... I am only warning you that there are also other ramifications that could happen, depending on the laws of your city / township, and / or state. PLEASE consult the police and your attorney about these issues as well. Also, on another note, that guy cannot get in any trouble (that I know of? I may be wrong) from taking or opening an envelope of yours that had your Paris pics in it, UNLESS HE REMOVED it from a Federally-certified mailbox that you have been using for your residence. UNLESS he removed the envelope from your REAL MAILBOX and opened it, even just opening the MAILBOX alone, is a Federal Offense. CONTACT YOUR POSTMASTER IMMEDIATELY, they could even have the police come fingerprint your mailbox and rule-out your own and your postal delivery person's fingerprints to find the other fingerprints of the person who has been stalking you and then they can better follow up for you, from that point .... see of you can have them get the police or an investigator to fingerprint the mailbox, this time or next time. If you can, DO THIS ASAP!! and if you can't rely on your local municipality police, there is ALWAYS THE COUNTY POLICE, and if they don't respond, there is always the STATE POLICE. And if they don't respond, there is always the FBI ... you never know who has been looking for this particular guy, only they might know his real story, or if he has a rap sheet or any prior lawsuits or offense reports filed against him in the past. You could also hire your own P.I., but why waste money on that unless nobody else can help you? GO THE OFFICIAL routes first!
