My grandma once told me how she chopped a burglar's hand off in 1918.
She lived till 2010.
How about the burglar?
He fled. My great grandfather came home an hour later, and found broken glass and a severed hand in his house.
He didn't find the intruder anywhere nearby, threw the hand in the nearest river, and cleaned up the house.
Police never came, and you didn't call them either, in Germany in 1918.
Oh
