This is exactly why I don't like to open my door to strangers! This is horrible!  

This is horrible. I don't usually let people in the house no matter what, if i don't really know the person. I don't even let the delivery guy in the gate. It's dangerous nowadays. There are a lot of people like that now and you'll never know who they are exactly.

hi cream 97 that is why if anyone comes to your door you should require identification and if they do not have it lock your door and call the police. that poor family, that was just horrible.but one now days should not let anyone in unless they know who the party is or the person has id to show he or she is legitimate.Census takers must show a badge and cannot enter until they do, as my son worked in the first census taking and they had lessons for days before going out.

oh gosh!!we should be very careful in accepting visitors that we dont know..

I don't know if you have seen any of the census commercials, but the commercial specifically states open your door to your census worker. All kinds of wackos can also see these commercials, and it makes me nervous for anyone who is easily victimized by people who want to rob them, or hurt them. I personally will not open my door to anyone I do not know. If they need help I will call 911 for them, or hand them the phone through a window, and talk through a window. It is sad we have to think in this manner.

This is horrible. I have opened my door, and even let people selling stuff in my house before and then thought, what have I done. I have heard other stories like this one and it is scary. I live in a small town so people don't think twice about opening the door to a stranger. In bigger cities I think people are more careful. Everyone should have a peephole I think.

you know, it amazes me that there are such mean, cruel people in this world that could take another human beings life like this.

If she gave them everythig, why kill anyone? I hate that people think it is ok to do such things to others instead of getting out and working for what they need.

I am with you.If I dont know you, the door aint openining. And if you're trying to break in my door, I am shooting.


So sad.So snesless.

I have read this before and it never gets any better. They actually showed an ID badge, huh? Now that is awful. I would ask for one for sure and even then you are in trouble. Ikes! They really want this census thing done and yet we get this sort of thing going on. Makes it hard to trust ANYONE!!

That is scarey. You just can't trust anyone anymore. You really can't. I was watching a show on cable for awhile about such stories and how people came of it and why. You really have to be a fighter and even then it doesn't always help much.

That is really sad to hear for that family. I filled out my census form, and mailed it out promptly. Still, I have a censor worker leaving a note on my door every other day. I don't get it. We (the taxpayers) are paying these people's salaries to come to homes who have already completed the form.

But I guess that is a totally different subject. I wonder how these people were dressed, and what kind of neighborhood it was. It makes you wonder if there are going to be a lot of other attacks like this happening in the United States. Just goes to show that things like this can happen anywhere.

Thank you for sharing this story with us here on myLot, Cream. It just about makes you want to quit listening to the news, it is so sad.

Have a better day!

It s very heartbreaking
Such people who commit crimes shd certainly be tracked n punished
Very disturbing
Do these rascals take life for granted
It s indeed very sad
