Heh. Try to follow me home for 30 min. We’ll pull into a nice quite area, and you’ll be lucky if the nice men with longarms that step out of the bushes have badges.
You never know who you’re following, or how many of their friends know how to put together a hasty ambush.

I’m not a fan of the lax firearm regulations in the US… But I quite like your idea.[/quote]
Firearms are the great equalizer. They provide the weak, eldery, and some females the ability to protect themselves. Would you deprive someone the right to defend themselves?

I live in Europe. More restrictive gun laws also mean that criminals and idiots find it harder to get one. As a result, gun-related crimes and accidents are a lot less common.
But let’s not discuss this here… Also, I’m pretty sure you’d have the majority of t members on your side anyway.
After watching the video I thought for sure I’d be the only one thinking the man was out of line and expected to see a bunch of posts about “young hooligans” etc. Fat dipshits like that give responsible gun owners a bad name. I hope his ass is getting plowed open. People with road rage are stupid animals that should be caged.

Although I have been in a few situations with multiple attackers and some with weapons, always got out of them without actually engaging because I intimidated them.
My brother got into a situation 2 days ago. He is a big fucker with snappy reflexes, street smarts and balls as big as you can measure.
He went to pick up a couple of things that were advertised for sale on the equivalent of ebay here in oz.
Something didn’t feel right about the guy as my bro offered him to jump in the car. Guy had the front door open and a box next to him. The guy said nah, I’ll get in the back and proceeded to pick up the box that was meant to have the items in it (relax, they were phones). The way he picked the box up wasn’t right, one hand for 13 phones. he opened the back door and left the front open so my brother yelled at him to close the front and at the same time caught a fucker walking up fast on the driver side and caught a glimmer of something shiny. Before he could turn the car on and take off, the guy was at the window and my brother swung wildly at him non stop, he hit him a few times and the guy kept trying to take stabs at him with his knife but it was apparent that my brother was getting too much to handle. In the car and crazier than the cunt with the knife he noticed the other guy still frozen on the other side but another one approaching from behind. He managed to swing at him a couple more times and get the car on and speed off. He then noticed he had sliced his palm and was bleeding like crazy all over his car. His jumper became soaked as he wrapped it up and drove to a hospital. He got a few stitches and they alerted the cops cause it was procedure. Cops came and my brother refused to comment. The cunts had the audacity to message him afterwards saying they were sorry and they needed the money and that he freaked them out because he was so ballsy and game.

That’s a shitty state of affairs mate. Hope it all works out for you guys. Guys like that tend to get what’s coming to them, one way or another.
[quote]From link above:
At the Carteret County Courthouse, a judge told 40-year-old Bradley Turner that if convicted, he could spend up to four years in prison. In addition, he must not have any contact with the victims or their families, and must relinquish any firearms. His next court appearance was scheduled for May 3…Bradley Turner was previously arrested for assault and trespassing charges in 2002 and 2003, investigators said. Those charges were later dropped.

So, dick bag.
Also, the children of knowledge whom he chased had great lines like
[quote]
“When [Bradley Turner] walked up, I just looked at him, he said a couple of words, threw a punch, and it was on like Donkey Kong,” said Berry. “[Turner] assaulted both of us first before we ever landed a hit. It was complete self defense.”[/quote]
[quote]
“Everyone got to see the fun part of it. We’re the ones who saw a gun pointed to our face and felt we [were] about to die,” Brotzman said[/quote]
and
[quote]
“When I looked up [during the fight], that’s when I see the kids in the car. That’s the only reason why I didn’t keep kicking [the suspect],” Brotzman said. “I looked up and kind of seeing the kids just staring at me, crying for their dad.”[/quote]
So, I am thinking this was When Assholes Colide: Suburbs and Charlie’s Angels Edition.
I am pretty big on following the Rule of the 3 Stupid’s.
Everyone in this story seems to want to break at least 2 of them.
First, I am very glad your brother got through that. Please accept my sincere wish that he have a speedy and uncomplicated recovery.
I will second London’s point about perhaps deleting part of your post, or the whole thing. I will also add that the kind of individuals who behave in that way are going to face a lot of pain/fear regardless of who or what brings it. That kind of stupidity simply carries misery with it.
Again, I am thankful your brother was not more seriously hurt and is still with you. I am sorry that individuals perhaps best characterized as “goblins”(Jeff Cooper’s preferred term) came into his life, if only briefly.
As a note about cuts/scars. I have found vitamin E applied directly to the healing scar(after stitches are out) really cuts down on visible scarring, also works fantastic on sun burns. I just buy the gel cap vitamins and poke a hole in the capsule.
There are several over the counter products that help remove/remodel visible scars. I have used Mederma in the past with good results. It allowed me to resume doing knuckle pushups on my right hand or landing my right without gloves. If a sense of “pulling” or pain persists after he has healed there are things that can be done as well.
Again, I am sorry that this happened to someone you love. I hope he has a speedy and uneventful recovery.
