What good is a handgun going to do against somebody that just wants to suck it? You going to shoot the guy just cause he's gay and wants to get you off? I can understand wanting to carry a gun if you're working in a high crime area and it's kinda dark or something.
I would not have gone in the door. It sounds too strange right off the bat when the guy only opened it up a hair and said come in the back, I'm back here and you can't even see the guy. I would've been too scared at that point before even walking into the joint.

No. This guy was not just "gay". He's obviously warped in the head. Shoot him before little boys in the neighborhood start coming up missing.

I agree,,,,and he is lucky I did not kill him. His house is right behind 2 huge apartment buildings. I wired 32 central air units for them last year. I'm going to tell the manager about him.

I think you should let the manager of those apartment's know I'm sure there are a lot of kids that live in those apartments.

I agree. Sounds like McClary is a homophobe. I would want to see the police report before I believed this story.

Maybe he saw you working there, got the number off your van and has been figuring out a way to meet you since. No one knows what he was thinking while he was watching you work from his window.

That was the best response to that situation. The guy wasn't threatening you. Would be hard justifying lethal response to the police for that. One step in your direction though.. and some natural selection could take place

You could be right. The police told me that they had two previous "complaints" on the guy before. One was a year ago, and the second was two weeks before this incident. They did not tell me what the complaints were.
