In that situation I would have made my self a very fast moving target while going to my side arm and keep moving this hes has stopped moving toward me.(One way or the other) And then a nice tactical reload from cover and his friend had better hope that hes dosn't make any threating moves casue I wuold make him stop his actions too. In that situation it would be them or me and I won't make it easy.

Another question I have is....How many of you would of verbally asked him to put his gun away and leave the area or how many of you would of fired your pistol seeing he had one and was coming up to you in an aggressive manner. I can understand if he produced a knife or a bat and you want to give him a warning, but a firearm it just has to long of a reach for me. If you know what I mean.

What would you have done?

Well I have an uncle who works for Fed ex ground. If some of you don't know fed ex ground is a self employed company. My uncle owns four trucks and one of them broke down in the southwest side by 610 and South Main. My uncle arrives to see if he can fix the truck before dark and he notices this guy on a bike, but pays not attention to him. Well after a while the mechanic arrives this crack head comes around and starts demanding a job and talking about how texans don't have nothing on him because he's from Louisiana (Katrina evacuee). Obviosuly on drugs.

My uncle asked him to leave because he started to grab his tools and started talking about how he can fix the vehicle. By this time my uncle and the mechanic leave to get some parts and the crack head leaves the area.

Upon returning my uncle arrives by himself to wait for the mechanic who left to his shop. Well the crack head arrives as well this time with a buddy in a truck and produces a pistol. My uncle gets in his truck and takes off and the chase begins after speeding through neighborhoods and on the freeway he loses them. During this time my uncle calls his wife to call the cops (I know he should of called the cops himself). They arrive at the location of the broken down vehicle , but by this time the two guys are gone. The police officers proceed to give their cell phone number to my uncle just in case they come back around.

Guess what....They did! My uncle by this time as a couple of his coworkers with him so the crack head and the other guy split. At the same time my uncle is on the phone with the cops and a few minutes later they get the scumbags they resisted arrest and putting it in simple terms they got their butts beat by the cops until they were able to put them in the vehicle.

When my uncle knew it was getting dark he expressed that he wanted to call me to help him out with the truck and also because he knew I carried and he felt really unsafe in that area after dark....Who doesn't! I don't know what would of happened if I was there.

Please share your thoughts and sorry for it being so long.
