Seems our conversation has run its course, you have no idea my intentions, if I wanted to escalate I would have pulled my gun, I wanted them to see I wasn't an easy target
Dude just ignore him. He is clearly trolling.
Custody usually means a person has been formally held/arrested. Detained is temporary based for questioning/investigation. In custody somebody is read their miranda rights, when detained they are not. They are different so I guess they wanted to make this clear. Why?, I'm not sure.
So seeing as things have really kicked off in the past decade with these type of shootings in the US, has the oppression started?
Not saying it's wrong for a country to do it the way you describe, but many people (in the US) are against some/all of the laws you describe because they are obviously antithetical to the right to 'keep and bear arms', and because they imply the right is in fact a privilege granted by the government, which is antithetical to the US Constitution.
I totally agree that every Tom, Dick and Harry shouldn't be able to buy LMGs and rocket launchers from Walmart hahaha
As the saying famously goes: "Gun control isn't about guns, it's about control"
Eh!? Are you soft in the head? That's clearly not an escalation that's a subtle wee gesture to show that he wasn't about to be rolled over on and the cunts that YOU ARE assuming had only robbery in mind took the hint and backed off.. he had his wife in the car you moron, ain't no one risking a situation like that if they have the means to stop it, I think you need to rethink the situation and place yourself in it
I tried giving them the benefit of the doubt they misread it at first but I think you are right, they are trolling or maybe one of the most coward people walking the face of the Earth, the easy target for criminals
He is retarded and would be curling in a ball like a baby if that same scenario happened to him. In your situation, I would have done the same thing. Only difference would have been the type of gun being shown.
I can predict that if we have two timelines one where the amount of guns in civilians hands are doubled and one where guns are reduced to an extreme minimum that the latter would have far, far, less mass murder type situations. Less murder in general as well. I doubt the latter scenario would occur as guns have become sacred to Americans, but it's just what would almost certainly happen.
I don't recall the details around the Vegas shooting but wasn't Sandy Hook where the shooter killed his own mother and took her weapons she bought legally?
Im surprised it didn't entice them. It's like flashing a really dangerous wallet but with $800 spilling out of it.
Criminals want soft targets, not something that will fight back
Standard behavior for any predator. Weakness is easy meat
I totally missed that you were "outside of Atlanta" when it happened. I totally believe it. A buddy of mine was filling up at a gas station in south DeKalb County YEARS ago when in broad daylight a group of guys pulled up next to him and displayed their hardware. He was sure it was the end for him, but they just laughed and drove off.
If he yelled a certain something else, it would be broadcast all over the globalist's news 24/7/365 (and years and years and years).
I knew I was in a bad area and we are talking maybe 20 some years ago with no navigation and we just got off a main highway because we were about to be walking which would have been worse for us
I remember pulling off for gas with my girlfriend at the time, probably in the same sort of area outside of Atlanta. Was about 1am, and the store was closed with bars on the windows and a steel door covering the entrance. They left the pumps on, however, for credit card gas purchases. Was a very dark and quiet road which appeared to have no other businesses or houses just woods, slight noise from the highway to the right.
Living most of my life in Southern Indiana being from a fairly rural community it seems most people have gunsI remember pulling off for gas with my girlfriend at the time, probably in the same sort of area outside of Atlanta. Was about 1am, and the store was closed with bars on the windows and a steel door covering the entrance. They left the pumps on, however, for credit card gas purchases. Was a very dark and quiet road which appeared to have no other businesses or houses just woods, slight noise from the highway to the right.
On the left side of the brick gas station building there was a sole light shining down to the ground with a coyote underneath it, playing and leap trying to catch moths with it's mouth. Couldn't have been more than 30-40 yards from me and it didn't even notice I was there.
Put only a quick $20 in since there was no other sign life in site and all I had playing in my head was some backwoods 'wrong turn' shit and how it felt right out of one of those movie scenes when I snapped out of the "oh, that's adorable" moment
I'm always armed on my person.
I saw that video, yeah. Zero situational awareness while having his pistol in the back waistband in no type of retention or even regular holster.
Always carry concealedThere is a video on instagram of a (white) guy open carrying into a gas station when a group of (black) guys come in, one of whom just yanks the first guys pistol right out of his pants. Dude pleads to get it back but the others just turn around and leave.
Comments say the white guy tried to get it back outside and was shot dead for his troubles, others say he retrieved a rifle from his car and took the pistol back with force.
Either way, keep it concealed! I get a fair amount of insta vides of folks getting shot when out and about. Everything from south american assassinations to SE asian robberies to southern US "Stick 'em up" robberies. Crazy how all footage gets out there.
The big takeaway is that, at least when using pistols, its RARE to drop a guy on the spot. Folks run and shoot, only to collapse some time later, unless hit in the head.
I was trained to shoot the bad guy to the ground, which was basically a mag dump back in the day, though now with the hi-cap wonder 9's even I would be hard pressed to fire off 17 rounds before assessing, trigger finger needs some rest
Because the source that he yelled that is Laura Loomer. Now, it may be true or not, but she is hardly what anyone would call a reliable source. Lots of influencers on Twitter are trying to spin this as a left motivated attack. It very well might be, but we don't even know who the shooter is, so it seems to me it is just agenda pushing to say something like that.
Plus it was uncomfortable when driving.
Eh... the info will come out if it's real. Could be as simple as Police have conflicting reports.
If that's the case, then yeah, that Jigsaw looking chick needs to STFU then.
Revolver is so much more reliableI like a scandium 5 shot revolver in front pocket or a compact glock at 4 o'clock. I used to carry a commander 1911 but I'm not thin enough anymore
I mostly just stopped going to sketchy places with sketchy girls, that really helped
Certainly has advantages at times. Shooting from a pocket (hammerless), no safety to fumble with, no slide to limp wrist or get tangled in clothing in a scuffle. But 5 shots is all you get.
