Uncomfortable in Wisconsin

While he was banging on the door, I would of opened it and confronted the person with some sort of weapon in one hand

So A) With no other weapon that what's available in the room, or at best some baseball bat/golf club/knife that you've brought with you and B) Without being able to know what is on the other side of the door because they guy covered the peephole you'd just swing the door open and confront him? What's your plan when you're staring down the business end of a .45?


Being able to open the door with sidearm drawn changes the entire scenario, but in OP's case with no serious weapon it's not a smart decision.

A fork could be a weapon and where did the .45 come into play? Hotel room doors do have that latch to partially open the door. At the same time, I see what your saying because your suppose to expect the unexpected and use the "What If" scenario in your head. All in all, as long as he didnt get hurt and is safe, thats all that matters. I would suggest now, is to just to go to another hotel

I know a gun wasn't ever mentioned, but OP said he could't see the guy cause he blocked the peephole and you just never know with people these days. Either way, if I'm carrying I probably wouldn't have a problem going to the door, but if I've got nothing more than a fork I'm gonna use the phone. Don't bring a fork to a gun fight lol.
