I am NOT paranoid, I just know human beings

Since when is reading the mail considered "tactics."

Snacktrack, nothing in the story indicated that USP was to be murdered. He wasn't almost murdered. He apparently was almost about to be the unwilling participant of a home invasion where no doubt the blades would be used to gain his compliance, but not necessarily murder.

Hey Double Naught, yeah you are right. Maybe I was a little dramatic, but, he could have been murdered. To me, anyone who is crazy enough to come into someone's home with a knife is willing to do whatever it takes to get money or goods.

There is no clear cut what could happen/what could not happen. What I can say happened is some very cautious thinking which foiled the BG's I would be pretty upset if something like this happened to me, even if they didnt gain entry.
 
Possession of a knife does not prove intent...

Posession of a BIG knife does not necessarily prove intent...

But TWO unknown men, set on entry by trickery or stealth,
and armed with 12 inch butcher knives, is suggestive enough
to me.

Did they "ONLY" intend to compell compliance from the inhabitants?
Ummm.... maybe.

Are we agreed that it is bad tactics to trust the good will
of a stranger trying to get in your house while posessing a butcher knife?
