Mark Byron woke up yesterday to an intruder in his home.

One of the things common in the blogosphere is the computer chair testosterone braggards that pile in to comment sections to boast about how tough they are and what they’d do to so and so in such a such a situation. They are the norm in the faith blogosphere. Until we’ve been confronted with threat we really don’t know how we’ll respond, no matter how much we rehearse scenarios in our head.

Mark did what he had to do.
