Just to clarify, it is Whataburger so you probably won't be sitting open carrying. I don't carry pepper gel and I don't think most LTC carriers carry pepper spray for mildly accosting people and guns for more severely accosting people. A big burly guy comes up to me at a table while I am seated, pulls my hat off and what little hair I have left and threatens me, what do I do? At my age I am not going to wrestle him to the floor but I am prepared to protect me and my wife if sitting at a Whataburger. Is this a situation to shoot over? What if he is about to swing at me? I don't know how I would react to this guy but I very well might be more aggressive while carrying than if not. What if it were my wallet sitting on the table that he walked off with? Theft is theft and accosting is accosting.oljames3 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 06, 2018 11:55 amSee my earlier reply #35 https://texaschlforum.com/viewtopic.php ... 0#p1211189rotor wrote: ↑Fri Jul 06, 2018 11:02 am You have to wonder, how would I react if this were me sitting in a Whataburger, concealed carrying, and accosted by this burly guy stealing my hat and assaulting me?

This person is irritating but not deadly, so an irritating response, such as pepper gel, would be my first choice. If I were to later perceive a threat to which force or deadly force was an appropriate response, then my openly carried S&W M&P M2.0 9mm 5inch is available.

Re: Man attacks teens in San antonio over MAGA hat
You have to wonder, how would I react if this were me sitting in a Whataburger, concealed carrying, and accosted by this burly guy stealing my hat and assaulting me? A bunch of dorky teens are not going to be armed but a senior citizen (I know-it's Whataburger) may very well be armed. My $20 hat and assaulted. Would anyone pull a gun and order the jerk to stand down while the police were called?
