From The Smoking Gun:
After breaking into an Oregon residence last night, Timothy Chapek, 24, barricaded himself in a bathroom after the owner unexpectedly arrived home. Chapek, you see, was worried that Hilary Mackenzie might be armed (or that her barking German Shepherds could prove problematic).
So he called 911 seeking help. “I just broke into a house and the owner came home,” Chapek told a police operator. “You broke into a house?” the surprised operator responded. “I think she’s got guns,” Chapek added.
Simultaneously, Mackenzie called police to report that there was an intruder in her Portland home (she told an operator that Chapek had reported he was taking a shower).
In the Perfect World envisioned by Mr Obama, it is clear to me that the homeowner would subsequently be arrested whether she possessed a gun or not, her home searched, a background check conducted on her personal affairs (Is she a TEA Party member? Subscribe to The Weekly Standard? What are her radio listening habits? Does she have a blog? What is her political affiliation?). Mere suspicion of possessing a handgun for defensive purposes would be sufficient for an arrest, “registered” or not. Clearly, it’s every bit as important what the female homeowner was thinking as compared to how she acted.
Just as clear is the fact that the true victim in this crime is the so-called “trespasser” who, obviously, isn’t a homeowning elitist.
He obviously had unfulfilled needs and the economy, his societal position and lack of personal empowerment placed him into that unfortunate circumstance.
There’s a glimpse at one possible future, America.
You like it?
Then re-elect Mr Obama come 2012.

P.S.
Finally:
According to a Portland Police Bureau report, Chapek told cops he was “taking a shower, nothing more.” Mackenzie reported that none of her belongings were out of place and that Chapek had “earlier made some utterance…that ‘Mexicans’ had kidnapped him and put him in the bathroom.”
Chapek, pictured in the above mug shot, was arrested and charged with criminal trespass. Go here for access to both 9-1-1 calls.
Huh. Imagine that. There still exists a bit of sanity, even in Leftist Portland.
I’m sure, however, the protesters are gathering who will insist he was framed. Framed, I tell you!
In the TexasFred world that idiot would have been ventilated…
But, there IS a bright side…
He was in the shower, that in and of itself would expedite the cleanup…
Damn Fred, that brought a smile to my face. Thank you kindly.

Hah! The poor bastard would never have reached the bathroom at my house. He would’ve been wearing a fur coat – pit bull fur, American mastiff fur, and Belgian sheep dog fur – the moment he entered my domicile.
And the clean-up would have taken a long time.
But there would also be no need to call 911.
But he was JUST DOING HIS JOB!
And that homeowner came home and interfered with him.
He not only cannot do his job but he’s stressed to the max.
Poor guy.
Smile!
I’ve read a lot of threads today about this. All of them lead to a police report and an investigation that is always worry-some.
Some say use a wood chipper on him. That won’t work cause I investigated several out in the National Forests.
Pieces are always found.
So, the answer is right in your face, as the perp is already in the bathtub,
Use acid. Easy to find and buy.
No residue will be left, down the drain, flush tub.
The infamous Mexican Shower gang claims another victim.
OH, my GOSH, BZ, that’s hilarious! He only broke in for a shower and Mexicans put him there?> What, did they think he REALLY STANK or something?
Texas Fred, that IS funny! And yes, BZ, I do think Obama would find HER guilty, not the poor bather! GEEEZ!!

sigh… 🙂
Tim: I suppose that’s why there’s Serv-Pro.
Greybeard: trust me, I’m SURE he’s paid by the government to do just that.
Mr Chuck: that’s been done before, particularly in “Fargo.” But the bathtub thing, it is creative. I don’t think it’ll hurt your porcelain, either.
Bob Mack: first, thanks for visiting and taking the time to comment. Yeah, that shower thing for home break-ins is becoming endemic. Everyone keeps forgetting about the public showers at truck stops, dammit.
First we think we have a hold on Mexican gangs, and now this.

Everyone will be pleased to know that in the Sacramento, Forniclia area — where I work — Caucasoids are now the Official Minority. Is that anything like the Official Bubblegum of the NFL? Can I get PAID for being an Official Minority?

So, the burglar Chapek called 9-1-1.
You can’t make this stuff up.
I love Texas Fred’s comment, BTW.
Follow up! You can’t fix stupid.
Homeowners do go to jail for that sort of thing. In Britain.
The birthplace of the NRA needs to remind itself that a man’s home is, quite literally, his castle.
