So you either follow the law, or violate the law. As a law
abiding person..those people followed the law..and died or were
wounded as a result.
End result. they're dead now. No undo. Some laws should not be
followed. Laws which go against logic. Just because something is
made a law, does NOT make it a just/right law. Following it becuase
it's a law, until you can "change" it, is the sheeple mentality.
And as you can see, that can get you killed these days.
Im not sure its a sheeple mentality. Afterall..would one actually
expect there to be any chance of such an event actually occuring?
It is a sheeple mentality. They don't think things can go bad. Things
can, they do... You should be prepared for it.
One shouldn't have to worry about going to a burger joint or anything
else and getting shot at, but it happens.
Yes..they took their chances by going. But the chances were
fantasticly low, in all seriousness. They had a much..much larger
chance of being hit by a meteor or falling airliner than having
such an event happen.
I'm not so sure anymore. More and more people are losing it and going
postal.
I dont carry a firearm because of the odds..I carry one because of
the risks.
I carry because you never know who you're going to run into. We have
a road rage problem here locally. I've had an individual take a shot
or two at me and I wasn't even the vehicle that cut him off.
I found out tho, that my old van makes for a fairly okay small
weapons fire shield, and allows me to disable the offending vehicle
easily. He spun out and ate some of that new metal cable they have to
seperate lanes of traffic. I didn't stop to see if he was okay. I'd
say by the crash, roll and cable slicing into the car, he probably
wasn't doing so good.
He was along side me, and fired at me man...His first shot came into
the cab and took out my passenger window! I hit the brakes and pulled
a hard left, right into his car. As soon as I felt the hit, I mashed
the gas and turned into it. Big block saved my hide; she pushed hard.
90 model 3/4 ton straight 6300bigblock, 410 gearing. no overdrive.
Commercial grade, full cage. Built tough.
I know atleast two cars stopped behind us; I could see them in my
mirrors..
I don't know why he fired at me, but I know it was damn close and I
could have been killed that day. I'm not sorry I used my van as a
weapon, I was acting in what I felt was self defense. Hit him, so he
can't squeeze another round off. I couldn't run from him. He'd easily
overtake me.
Did you get arrested for leaving the scene?
What are the witnesses going to say? "Hey, it was a white van with a
ladder rack and it ran off." So uhh, no.

No! Don't think I'll need anything at all. All in all it was all just
bricks in the wall. All in all you were all just bricks in the wall.
