Don't let your over confidence get you in trouble. You have no idea what these women are capable of. This is a clear threat of deadly force.G.C.Montgomery wrote:At 5'0"-5'6" and nothing over 135lbs I am not convinced either could seriously threaten me (6'2"@320lbs) with baseball bats. But if they really were that stupid, I am not into drawing guns just to "scare" people. I'd certainly issue verbal commands to get away from me and I'd probably have some sort of impact weapon (SureFire Defender or closed, folding knife) at the ready. OC would be a good option too. But I'm more likely to take the bat away from some that small. I'm sorry ladies but, if a woman is "man enough" and dumb enough try to rob me in a parking lot with a baseball bat, she's "man enough" to get her bones broken after I take the bat away.Aggie_engr wrote:This is the email that was sent out to students. I personally know a few students who were displaced to the webster/clear lake area due to Ike. What would you guys do? I know it's just a couple women with bats, but would you consider shooting? Maybe just draw and try to scare them off?...
YMMV
I would also suggest you be careful about taking the bat away and then using it on them. Your use of the bat would also constitute the use of deadly force, and once you have taken thier weapon you may no longer be justified.
I for one would defend myself with all available means. I have no problem drawing my gun and letting them know that they will be shot if they make one more move.
