Sorry guess I ended it kind of abruptly. LOL. What I was trying to convey is to work on the scenario even as I and my wife were out eating this afternoon, I was playing out possible scenarios of what could occur, kind of like a personal training time. Where would be a good place to sit where I could watch most activity without being immediately watched by anyone entering, what could be my response if someone entered and began some sort of activity such as what played out on the video and etc. As far as the rest of my comment, I am just seeking what others might do. Also, what legal ramifications could exist. Just attempting to expand my knowledge.Oldgringo wrote:huh?DEB wrote:I posted this, not concerning Mexico so much, but with what has happened recently such as what occurred in Nevada.

If someone entered, uncovered a shotgun, when could or should one act? Milliseconds count, and usually one is not alone eating out. I believe part of the training should be one's family members/significant other that would be present. This includes get down on the ground if you see me make any kind of move to my weapon or? Also, get a seat where you can watch the entrance and maybe also provide you with some surreptitious cover, so you can react without being observed. I was trained that the best time to act is at the very beginning of an action/ambush as the foe is not concentrated on just one individual and has no idea of what to expect. If one waits then it will be you against them. Laws come into play as well, this isn't a combat zone where mistakes could be forgiven. How about more tactical responses, Who, What, When, Where, Why. I and my wife ate at a BBQ place today after watching this video and as I was eating I was formulating a possible response.

Robbery in Nuevo Laredo, WWYD
Hopefully this will come out and I am not breaking a rule by posting it here. Mods please do your thing if I am wrong here.

This happened in Nuevo Laredo, August 18 and was posted both on YouTube and on Borderland beat. No killings or blood, just an armed robbery. It shows several families sitting down to eat at a Pizzarea, when two men enter, kind of lackadaisical, no hurry, and rob everyone. Would you act? If so when? What could you do, both legally and morally, and how? Remember this is Nuevo Laredo, killings are a daily occurrence. This could also be coming to any major city, especially in the Southwest, as the violence could spread. Kind of like a training video, except it is real life. I believe it is good to just get the juices going on the, "how to's".
