I almost beat some punk's ass outside my house

Hold on let me jump on the bandwagon

 

Sorry no room for you in this wagon,

 

shifty jumps out of nowhere and calls us all names and stuff. Come'on Man!

 

Ok you're right.
Way to go dude, you showed him the gun. Maybe the mother and her kid saw it too. Good job. Way to go! We all know you could have beaten his ass but the gun was "Just" in case you couldn't you can shoot him. Cool man!

 

yup

 

Not to mention Disorderly conduct, DV and possible Child Endangerment depending on where the kid was. But yeah, call it in as it's happening and if you need to step in to defend the victim, then do so (with the minimum force neccesary).

 

So, in violation of equal protection under the law and sexual discrimination, you feel that its OK for a woman to attack a man and the man has no right whatsoever to defend himself? You apply the law to man but not a woman.

the problem with the original posters situation is not a question of what he did and whether it was noble or not.. I think we all agree in the moral sense of the law he did what was right at the time which demanded action or imminent bodily injury could have occured.

However, in real life what he did was stupid. In real life, he could have been charged with all sorts of misdemeanors and even possible a felony. Then he would have to go through financial hell to clear his name. Not worth it in my book. Call the cops, let them handle it.

 

This is one of those arguments that get started over someone not reading the OP and then putting his own take on to things like most idiots do. I have been either concealed carrying or open carrying for almost 15 years now and I have never had to draw my weapon once. It is all about putting yourself in situations. Packefan did the right thing and it had nothing to do with the fact that he was carrying. As far as having a permit the only thing that I have is a concealed weapons permit from Utah that is recognized in about 75% of the states. If it is not good in the state then I have a holster that I wear on my side and I open carry just like you would carry a pocket knife. Now that I am in Europe I had to leave my babies at home.

 

Your arguing what ifs and going up against two LE's on here, one of which is an AZ LE, that are siding with Packer. count your loss and leave

 

This is what I am saying. He handled it wrong and could have possibly ruined his own life. What if the the guy beating on his women had a gun and took it out after noticing his? This crap happens ALOT man. Then everything would have went sideways and innocent people could have gotten killed. What this guy did was stupid. Yes, he had good intentions but did not think at all.

Shit, I live near the murder capital of the country, Newark NJ, and crap like this ALWAYS happens and it's sad to read about stupid, life ruining accidents

 

Grow up or get out my friend!

 

Im glad I found out about the ignore user option

 

Yeah I do my research before I travel of course. The SC concealed weapons permit is actually pretty easy to get. I just had to show that I took all the classes and then let them do the back ground checks and I had one. I also had to do that in NC and Virginia. I make sure to follow the rules everywhere I travel. But thanks for the heads up.

 

way too serious. I was kidding with that post. Relax. Matter of fact, i am the only one that is grown up here. All of this cheer leading about this is typical kid stuff.

 

Fair enough. I respect your opinion but as a responsible adult it should be in your head to think about what can happen before you run out of your house carrying a gun. ESPECIALLY when there is a women and a child there. I feel that is part of the responsibilty of owning a gun. I live in the NYC area and everyday I hear about things like this gone horribly wrong.

 

It seems to me that the only reason your on here is just to argue and stir the pot among the TW family and have no actual usefull or knowledgeable comments

 

Case in point
