On second thought, let's not go to Portland. It is a silly place.

So a tenant feared for his life so he "moved out" and stayed as a guest?  Seems like he feared paying rent.
Funny as hell he had a sword for protection and his painting/shoebox alarm worked.  This guy must have thought home alone was a documentary.

Burglary against a dwelling/armed home invasion robbery. Escalating violence over time. Ticks enough boxes for a self defense bingo. Sorry Sword Guy had to do it, but asshole FA and FO

Something as bone-basic as a "Shiat falls down and makes noise" alarm actually works just fine.  Doesn't do much else for you but that it'll do, reliably.  Almost impossible to "disarm" too from outside most of the time.  Sometimes the old tricks are best.  As for the sword, he put that where he could get to it because the guy had already tried to break in while drunk and otherwise made himself as obnoxious as hell.  And then the fool busts in in a Halloween mask while to all appearances carrying a gun and definitely carrying a hammer?!  This isn't exactly "OMG deadbeat tenant WTF?" time here

/hell even if it had been

I didn't bother to check which Portland. Given that it involved a dude getting killed with a sword I should've guessed the OR version instead of the ME variety.

But the Captain Eddie lobstah revolt/mockery of made-up "facts" in one of GWB's SOTU addresses is probably one of my favorite Non-Sequitur strips, and the Fark headline says "lobster uprising," so I went with it.

Yet when I shoot five weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of a hundred people, I'm the bad guy.

The sword he wedged into the couch for easy access. The memo does not specify the type of sword, but office spokeswoman Elisabeth Shepard said it was "saberlike."

The man who stabbed him was a former tenant who had just moved out and was now staying in the house as a guest.

I often bring my sword with me while sleeping at places I used to live.

I, for one, welcome our new lobster overlords.  You get used to them asking, "Dat-a-chum?", "Ded-a-chek?" and "Did-a-chick?"

Didn't look at your lease? Well Paragraph 20 says "the Owner may enter the premises without notice at any time to achieve an orgasm"
