Medical student rubs out trespasser Zatoichi-style
I’m telling you – when it comes to home defense, nothing stacks up to a katana. While a gun-toting homeowner is dangerous, a sword-wielding one is batshit crazy, and clearly not worth trifling with.
A would-be burglar in Baltimore discovered this recently when he fucked with the wrong Med student. Said doctor-to-be (whom I hope hasn’t yet taken his hippocratic oath) confronted the presumed intruder – the trespasser allegedly attacked the sword-wielding student, and that’s when things got all slice-y.
Doctor Cuisinart then proceeded to lop off the criminal’s hand and caused a ’severe laceration to his upper body’, pretty much killing the guy on the spot. Authorities are apparently considering filing charges in the slaying, which leads me to believe there might be more to the story than is being reported.
As an aside, I once scared off an intruder with a katana when I lived in a below ground-level apartment while attending college. Thankfully nobody got cut to death, but there was a lot of maniacal screaming on my part and a lot of running on the burgular’s.

Ah, the first comment of the day feels so good… *ahem*
My wife gets upset that I keep my broadsword next to the bed. I'm a firm believer in _some_ kind of home defense, even if it just makes me feel good, and certainly she won't let me buy a shotgun… not even if I just get rock salt shells.
Yes, people are going to break into your apartment, so you better have something other than harsh language to defend yourself. Besides, my blunt stage-fighting sword is what you call "less than lethal." Save enough to have around the toddler, but powerful enough to leave the would-be attacker neutralized, especially after getting hit by five pounds of high carbon steel.
