Say Buddy, Do You Have A Glock?
« on: August 11, 2014, 02:38:48 AM »
A youth, about to attack a pedestrian walking along minding his own business,  asked an odd question:

Do you have a Glock?

The guy said no, and got knocked out.

If someone asks if I'm armed, maybe a red flag will go off in my head.  So if someone asks if you have a "glock", the proper response is, "let's hope you don't find out." 

But glad the attacker got nabbed.

That was funny.  But I do carry a Glock. 

He wouldn't been in any danger if I shot as bad as I did at the Bowling Pin match yesterday.

The balloon just went up.  Start backing away if possible.  Prepare to defend yourself.  Nothing says you have to answer the question.  Watch his hands closely.   Try to scan your surroundings. 
"It is better to avoid than to run; better to run than to de-escalate; better to de-escalate than to fight; better to fight than to die. The very essence of self-defense is a thin list of things that might get you out alive when you are already screwed." – Rory Miller

It is interesting how the media avoids providing any details related to physical descriptions of the perps.

Wonder why?

Such information would perhaps be useful in helping honest citizens avoid the perps.   Or catch them.   

Maybe the media folks aren't very observant.

Just Thinkin' Out Loud How the Media Could Possibly Help Reduce Crime..........

If they really wanted to do so.

It would appear that they are suggesting (indirectly) that one should carry a Glock. :D

Why should they?  Did you even read the article?  The perps (15 year old and friends) were caught shortly after the incident.

Good marketing tool:  Media Endorses Glock.

Open carry of a rifle would have prevented this
