re: ever had a gun pointed at you by a stranger?

$0 something years ago at a bar called the Part II by SLU. For you youngin's That was before everything was fully integrated. Two black couples wanted to come in and they were asked to leave because it was a private club. They said that they were coming back with some friends. I went out and was sitting on the back of my car. A car pulled up and the window rolled down. A black guy in the back seat stuck a pistol out the window and pointed it me. I smiled and for a few seconds sat there staring down the barrel. Then I decided to go in. I figured if they were going to shoot me that night, it was going to be in the back. Sad thing is, I felt bad that they were asked to leave. I didn't think it was right and still don't. Just wasn't me time.

yes.. turned out to be a starter pistol. But, i was 16 and it scared the shite out of me.

this was only a few months after a friend was killed by a pissed off dad.

Multiple times by the police.

Heres an interesting one...

Was in PE class at McMain Magnet(middle & high school). Part of class everyday was to jog around the campus. Was with all black kids. Coming around the corner at Nashville and Cucullu, a couple of the black kids decide to "ching-ching-chong" a van full of Vietnamese Mafia as they passed by with their windows down. About 4 of them jump out waving guns at us. I think one of them had a Tec-9. Yes, it was the 90's.

The black kids be like...




I be like....

Once, pulled up in a driveway at 2:00 am to drop off a staggering drunk 14yr old girl that I didn’t know at her house she had given me directions to because some a-hole left her passed out on my porch after a party,

went to open my truck door and there was a shotgun in my face, her dad was very unhappy, I didn’t blame him. Told him I was just doing him a favor so he wouldn’t be worried, that no one had touched her, that she didn’t get any alcohol at my place and that he should be pissed at the shite head he let pick her up that afternoon. I was 18 and glad he believed me, put the gun down and didn’t call the cops. I was too tired to care about the gun at the time.

Yes a Ruger mini-14

Pissed off rancher claimed my shooting on a neighboring property scared his horses. Dude was a legit a-hole. Luckily it didn’t escalate and no one got shot....

Yup. Been on both ends of that barrel. Sucks. Counter intelligence work in Nicaragua back in the day. Occasional drug deal gone bad stateside, but all that was years ago. Lucky to be alive.

Punk pulled a gun on me re attempted robbery a few weeks ago. Dumbass. Grabbed that fricking thing, pistol whipped him for a hot few seconds until he ran off, and then added some free gun parts to my personal collection.

Yes, more than a few times at my past employment.
People didn’t like the black uniform they gave us for some reason.
