Robber Assaults 84-Year-Old Man, Heads Towards His Wife — Satisfying Video Shows the Next Moments
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2015/03 ... t-moments/

From the article:
A robber in Tulsa, Oklahoma, became the latest criminal to learn how dangerous it is to put a man’s wife in danger.

Doug Jandebeur, 84, was getting into his truck parked outside of his Tulsa business on Monday night when he was approached by a robbery suspect. His wife was over on the passenger side.

...snip...

The 84-year-old said he initially thought some of his friends were playing a prank on him. But then he felt the painful sting of a punch to the side of his face, letting him know the situation was serious and dangerous.

...snip...

I pulled out my automatic and was getting ready to ventilate him,” Jandebeur said. He added, “Once he saw my gun he decided to leave.”

...snip...

Jandebeur, who has acquired a lot of life experience over 84 years, also offered some advice to his fellow Americans.

“Anybody who doesn’t arm themselves is asking for trouble,” he said.
Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.

Another win for the GGs and another example of a successful defense with a firearm without pulling the trigger. Love the "getting ready to ventilate him" quote.
