Dear Teachers,
1. If you don't open the damn door, I will break it and rush in.
- Is this natural?
Thanks so much to Teachers,

I think the "rush in" part is redundant - it's implied by the context. If you really wanted to emphasise the fact that you're going to enter the room after breaking down the door, you might say "and force my way in" rather than "rush in". I think I would say "If you don't open the **** door, I'm going to break it down".
