Armed Robber Makes Mistake

[sboza]

You might be well served to follow your own suggestion. Nothing better describes an "armchair commando" than one who can't say enough negative things about a well versed ex-serviceman who successfully thwarted an armed robber with not a shot fired.

Ahh, wondered when you'd get your troll on in this thread.



GIVE one example of something negative I said about the good guy.

SERIOUSLY, one thing.



I know you can't, just like the countless other threads you spew your venom. You are responsible for more GD threads going downhill than anyone else here. I don't understand why you are still allowed to post.

AGAIN, quote back one negative thing I said about the good guy.



P.S. I know you can't but I know your game. You'll find another way, through diversion, to attack me.

The reason I posted this was because I thought most people would appreciate the story and some would find it amusing like I did. I did not anticipate the thread would turn into a pissing match. Pull in your johnsons boys, the match is over.

The thug thought he was going to prey on an innocent civilian and he ran into an experienced individual with a cool head. I'll bet the police got a chuckle out of this one.

Nobody got hurt and the thug did not get any money.

I also rate the clerk at A+.

SS I know you're watching but give it just a moment if you will. I won't fight with this fellow.

Sboza, are you trying to claim that you did not portray that man's actions, therefore that man, in a negative light?

He had some serious awareness and quick reflexes to actually see the guy drawing his gun and reach out and stop him while pulling his own. Napoleon called it coup d'oeil; an INSTANT grasp of the situation with no hesitation, denial, or freezing, coupled with an immediate an appropriate positive action to address said situation.

Ignoring the other garbage.

I don't have to claim anything. My words speak for themselves. You may be a little confused because any negativity was aimed directly at the comment by ChicagoTex. That was a bit obvious since I quoted his comment directly above my response but alas ...

Oh I see. So then the statement "Action beats reaction. Thinking that a bad guy holding a gun not pointed at you gives you the advantage when you have yours on the threat is a big ****ing mistake. Again, action beats reaction!" directed specifically at the actions of the ex-serviceman and the subsequent endorsement of them by Chicago Tex has nothing to do with the ex-serviceman himself.

Is this correct?

Have You Ever Been Shot At?

Just curious.

Have you ever been in a fist fight? Have you ever been in a military, LEO, security roll where you have been attacked? Have you ever responded to an emergency involving the threat of loss of human life?

I'm just curious. This post is not directed at any one person in particular just as a general question regarding the entire subject of this thread.

Sboza - you need to lower your temperature.

This is done.
