My old shop forman (and shop owner) always used to say that he would get more of them than they would get of him, and in that thought alone he slept better at night.chamberc wrote: ↑Thu Sep 03, 2020 12:59 pmA 6000+ lbs. vehicle is a better weapon than a rifle in those situations. Using it as a deadly weapon isn't different than using a handgun in the final analysis. You'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6. Another thing to remember, is, in large groups, if they don't scatter once shooting starts, you're going to lose as long as they keep coming. You will take some with you, but you're going down.powerboatr wrote: ↑Thu Sep 03, 2020 12:19 pm i saw a video yesterday of a person driving what looked like a large RV and was stopped at a red light or stop sign ( the video was unclear). The car in front of the RV, got out of her car and opened trunk and then proceeded to bash out the drivers side windows of the RV. The driver videoed it, but took no action.
my concern, is the woman with the bat was a clear threat of safety and security of the RV driver. If he had simply drove forward and pushed her car out of the way, i am sure it would be a no brainier in regards to law enforcement. But also , the threat was real and the driver was in danger. would actions by him be justified, if he had put a few rounds into her to stop the threat to his safety or life. you know , a few through her arms or wrists to stop the threat?? This is the 2nd such video of similar incidents , where a large RV was stopped on a highway and hoodlums climbed up on top and were dancing and jumping on the roof, and prying open open baggage doors. the driver IMO should have simply floored the throttle and then apply brakes in a rapid fashion to remove such hoodlums from top of the RV, maybe some would have been run over or suffer injuries from falling 12 feet to the hard concrete.
I drive a large RV and both of these incidents, bother me and give me concern on how to counter the bad folks while protecting my family. portable speed bumps disguised as humans, blocking roadways, willfully choose to endanger their own lives and as such if get run over. I want to be protected as much as possible in the eyes of the law.

Wyoming or Northeastern Utah (Uintah Basin) but only as a last resort.philip964 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 31, 2020 1:57 pmThere was some family discussion Sunday about maybe needing to find a place.

The Purge's "New Founding Fathers" were purposely represented as extreme-right white nutjobs...Hollywood would never have bought the script, otherwise. But flip the "New Founding Fathers" to be radical leftists and antifa Marxists, and you just painted a pretty chilling analogy of the seemingly incessant riots and violence. Next step: "To protect the cities we all live in while still giving the oppressed, the demeaned, and the overlooked the opportunity to release their just and righteous anger, for 24 hours each year..." Once they've confiscated the guns from lawful citizens, they could even use the supply as a lending library for the poor and downtrodden who can't afford their own firearms but want to exercise their right to Purge.Flightmare wrote: ↑Mon Aug 31, 2020 11:02 amSounds like it comes straight out of the movie "The Purge".Rafe wrote: ↑Sun Aug 30, 2020 10:44 pm And Wisconsin Deep Blue Gov. Tony Evers has told President Trump he's not welcome in Wisconsin. Trump is scheduled to visit Kenosha this Tuesday, and Evers wrote him to ask him to stay away. Evidently Evers feels the protests are cathartic, and that they are helping Kenosha "overcome division and move forward." Evers' letter to Trump said, "I am concerned your presence will only hinder our healing."
Yeah. Right. All the Dem-run cities allowing violent assaults and rioting to take place unchecked in their streets are doing a gosh-darned super-swell job of moving forward and healing.
Er, anybody want to discuss a bunch of us chipping in to buy a couple thousand acres with a defensible perimeter, good underground water supply, and arable land?
Well anyway a member of the family piped up, not Montana or Idaho that’s where all those crazy far right wing militias are.
It’s pretty easy to spot people who listen to MSM.
