Don't mess with an old man. He'll just shoot you.

HM... The only one I can find now is an interview with the CHP holder and his attorney. Was the security video never released or leaked? I thought it was out there somewhere. My apologies.

On another note, thanks for the replies. I'm new to force-on-force training and hope to take a class in the near future.

As Jim P stated.
"2- Surprise is a "combat multiplier", and a swift, though imperfect attack on an unprepared enemy is often superior to a deliberate, text-book perfect attack on a prepared enemy, particularly when the enemy has a numbers and/or firepower superiority.  Action beats reaction."


This is so true, certianly the old guy saw his oportunity and took action.
For having that courage I salute him, as many have pointed out his tactics probably are not the best/safest.
But I for one can't criticize him, probably because I don't know how I would react in a similar situation.

Finally got a chance to watch this video.  One observation I would make is that it didn't appear there was much in the way of cover that the good guy could have taken advantage of.  There didn't seem to be a lot there other than computers.  I'm definitely no expert, but I wonder if his reaction in this case might have been the best course - just take the fight to them with extreme aggression.
