Serious ? I'm 51 I carry concealed everyday all day. I'm not sure if you saw the video of all the kids running amuck in the store or not. Providing you did how would you have handled yourself in that situation? I get it if you prefer not to answer.

Great job on carrying concealed. We need as well-trained 2nd Amendment exercisers on the streets as possible.

Yes, saw that video and it prompted my thread, along with my daughter's comments on stereotyping. As far as how to handle that situation, there's not really a whole lot you can do. In large disturbance like this about the best course of action is to identify a ringleader (if there is one) and secure that individual. If you're all alone, though, that might not be the best course of action. Sometimes when you're outnumbered like that all you can do is be a good witness and protect what people/property you can. It's a shitty situation to be in, what happened in Philly.
