Fact: You can sometimes choose your home
but you can's always choose your neighbour.
Through misfortune of circumstances
history and geography, shared culture and
religion what are the chances a neighbour
would view you as a resource in an unequal
relationship where when occasion demands it
they feel entitled to all that is yours depriving
you of all that is meaningful in life? When
home invasions become the norm so does
tension and inevitably preparedness. Until
the time comes when the bully next door
once again invades to find himself facing
a neighbour prepared to exact a cost from
the predator, sending him away limping
and perplexed that his superior bulk and
propensity to violent action this time has
consequences neither quite foresaw; the
innocent neighbour vindicated, the tyrant
become a universal object of derision.
