Strange, every time I initiate rep, the approve box has always been checked automatically. Like a default.

I find no fault in whatever decision a person makes when their life may be on the line. We all have thresholds.

It depends on the promity of the situation... it's so much safety in minding your business
For example... that guy that shot the perp that was on top of that state trooper beating him up.... had that Good Samaritan accidentally shot the state trooper... good chance he would had lost his freedom that day.... he put himself a great risk for doing the right thing
Sometimes doing the right thing is not doing the right thing I suppose
Yes... when in doubt, flee and mind your businessLast edited by Muscle Master; March 9th, 2017 at 08:47 PM.

I don't know why these hypotheticals always stir so much shit. Minding your own is fine and so is stepping up to the plate. Screw the what ifs. It's a hypothetical involving known bad guy(s).. Why is either answer wrong? We give kudos to The Armed Citizen reports and how can there be fault in knowing your limitations or getting away unscathed?

My plan is to deploy my briefcase that's lined with ceramic plates to catch the incoming rounds, while my SO assembles the .300 Winmag NEF.
Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.

Re: Something To Think About Guys
Well, I for one am glad we got the reputation thing repaired. Hokey smokes Thanks Justin we know you're a decent type of fellow but that Gun guy well you know... I did that from my phone one time, gave Neg rep accidently. I felt pretty dumb but it was the phone's fault for having such a small screen. That was when I had an iphone 4.
Anyway, in situations where the good and bad guys aren't so clear cut it's a matter of trying to assess the situation as quickly as possible. I think my first option is to take myself out of the line of fire from the bad guys and any potential good guys that may show up. I know it's hard to make any claim to a hypothetical when the pressure is on and yours and other people's life may be at stake but getting out of the line of fire is always my first thought. In that hallway there were door openings to take a shot from on the bad guy and that would have given the good guys time to assess you weren't part of the bad guy team when they showed up and it would give you cover to surrender to the good guys while not exposing yourself to their fire.
I know I heard that instructor say shoot the bad guy and head out of the building to the right. That was obviously done on purpose to demonstrate what was going to be done wrong. I'm sorry if I fail a hypothetical training course if I choose to survive instead and do things as I see fit. Maybe it's just me but I have this built in survival instinct thing going on inside of me. I'll surely help others if need be but I want it to be successful. Shooting the bad guy and ducking in the doorway would be my first thought.

Re: Something To Think About Guys
I heard the story of a Navy SEAL who was training some Iraqi soldiers or perhaps police , when a grenade was thrown in their midst , and he naturally dove on it.
My first thought would have been to throw an Iraqi on top of it!
Sooo , that lesson learned , my plan is to grab someone I don't know and throw them into the line of fire.Last edited by abner13; March 9th, 2017 at 10:32 PM.
