Skip the surpreme court ruled the cops aren't
rwesponsible for a persons safty, or protection. So that only leaves the person himself. I recently hired some workers to put in a sidewalk on the side of the house and a patio and planters in the back. We agreed on price and a detailed verbal on how to prepare and complete the work. Well 3-4 mexicans showed up and were doing a half ass job not to our agreement. I was so pissed I went into the house got my big rocking chair and sat in the back yard closely watching them work with a 12 ga. shot gun across my lap. Now I had there attention and they did exactly what I wanted how I wanted. Ofcourse the gun wasn't loaded, but they didn't know it. Job ended up just fine.
