^This is the scary part.

I keep thinking about the Jussie Smollett attack. It ended up being fake, but like it or not, someone told him exactly where to stand so he would not be caught on video. Someone knew where all the cameras were on that street. Now we are seeing that the internet can scrub someone's social footprints with a snap of a finger.

Humanizing yourself if you can't fight or flee, is your best chance for survival in a situation like this.

Victims negotiate with criminals all the time. Sometimes it buys you time to get help or figure out how to flee or fight.

Needing to go to the bathroom is a universal thing that even criminals understand with whatever shred of humanity they have left.

Pelosi either knew this instinctually or possibly had some training somewhere that told him this. Lots of corporations give security training to employees/managers. Things like how to survive a hotel fire or what to do if someone is threatening you. It will almost always include this info about humanizing yourself. It's harder for the criminal to hurt you if he starts seeing you as a fellow human being.

They were trying to minimize and make this go away from the get go. Too bad that gigantic hole in the patio door along with all of the glass laying outside made it glaringly obvious that something happened there.

I agree with you. I have been trying to say that myself, but you put it much better. He seemed to love nutty conspiracy theories and ideas on all sides of the political spectrum. I think his mental illness made his susceptible to those fringe theories. He needs to pay for his attack on Mr. Pelosi.

Why didn’t he lock the bathroom door though and wait for the police?

I am used to it by now. The FBI has a long reach. Remember what Chuck Schumer said, “You take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you." Well that goes same for their ability to protect their allies.

One of the many things I find really curious is: why did Paul Pelosi come out of the bathroom? If someone were to break into my house and I could make it to the bathroom I would lock myself in an not come out until the coast was clear. I'd also like to think I was cognizant enough to use some caustic substance from under the sink to arm myself with if the intruder managed to break the bathroom door down. Another thing, who charges their phone in the bathroom? In a house that is over 3000 sq ft I'd find better places to charge.
Lots of very suspicious details in this story. I doubt we will ever know the truth, and perhaps we shouldn’t know. The only sure thing seems to be that the dude was crazy.

I'm hearing some crazy stories about this attack. Something seems a little off with it.

Police have not addressed yet whether or not anything was done to disable the alarm system outside.
We had monitored security for 25 years and never turned it on. The insurance was cheaper even with paying for security.

These days of ring, etc, there is no break on the premium.

We still have it although not monitored. Still never turn it on. But I watch the cameras a lot so I know where the feral cats are.

The cameras enable me to see my yard, down the street and one of them can move to monitor the street and neighborhood. It helped when neighbor’s car was struck.
