Re: Two men came at me in the Parking Lot Tonite!
This event happened some five nights ago and all of the attention has been focused on you as to the "what-ifs" and "maybes" that could have happened to the unaware, unsuspecting and possibly underarmed CH licensee.marksiwel wrote:I was loading Groceries with my wife, when two White Males in their early 20s approached us from the dark.
I quickly undid the saftey on my pepper spray, and moved my shirt so I could reach for my Browning (Glock holster is in the mail)
They said something and reached into their pockets...
They handed me a Church of Latter Day Saints DVD asking if they could come buy and talk to me and my wife
Whew it was a close one
I declined said No thank you but good luck, and sent them on thier way.
Got my Blood pumping though.
After all this time, it just dawned on me that no one has inquired as to your wife's well being and state of mind after you were singled out, in her presence, for a possibly horrendous act by the approaching and unknown young men in the grocery's parking lot. She must have serious questions, qualms, fears and perhaps even the heebie-jeebies following such a shopping experience? It's a good thing you were there and alert.
Good Job!

But...you're wearin' a gun and if you shoot everybody, or anybody, who ain't, you'll be sharin a cell with a real BG whose name may be Big Bruce or somethin like that. You know what I mean, Vern?mctowalot wrote:I realize I'm opening myself up to some flaming here, but what the heck.
The man did not go overboard in his response to two unknown males approaching him in a dark parkinglot. How many robberys/carjacking episodes start with that preface?
If we all are who we say we are, (CHLers) we all know danger can come in all shapes and sizes or we wouldn't be here on the forum.
I'm starting to wonder if we have a few anti's with too much time or their hands that get their jolly's trolling.
You don't like long posts? Skip 'em.
Same for the "what ifs".
You know well and good a "pro" criminal will take on whatever appearence works best for them to achieve their goals.
There might be a few more "good guys/ladies" around without a history of being victimized if they had put a little more thought into who they trusted.
If some of us choose not to assume every "cleancut" person is an angel, it's our right. Get over it.
One of my favorite quotes on this forum is, "...a CHL is not a Batman license...".

Alright! At Ease...everybody. 
There's no sense in anybody gettin' their knickers in a knot over these silly "what-if boogeyman" posts.

I apologize, I left out the two key words in italics....multitudinous (and repetitive ) posts/questions...

with bdickens.Some, more than a few, of the multitudinous posts/questions on this forum about various everyday "what-if" situations are downright silly - to say the LEAST.

You think maybe that they came for your computer?marksiwel wrote:Aha!

Out here in the sticks, LDS folks never work after dark and most places won't let anyone solicit. I suppose they don't wear name tags anymore either?
You just never know....
