I agree.
Never go looking, just like to be ready and aware of my surroundings. It goes way back.
And I apologize for being rude.

Case by case situation, not sure he is not going to kill me even if I do cooperate. I always CC, if he ever takes eyes off me for a second he is shot. I also carry in my front pocket, so I am reaching as if I am giving him my belongings, but come out with my Ruger LCP. It's a chance I feel I have to take.

I have once and once I just gave them my wallet....


The first time I was 18 and it was two black guys who tried to rob my in a bathroom of a hotel. Luckily I was finished taking a piss when they turned off the light and one grabbed me. I immediately ran backwards hitting him into the sink and then ran for the door, once out they ran out and went to the exit.
The second time I was in Nola walking back to my vehicle and a guy pulled a gun on me and the people I was with. I threw them my wallet and waited till they left. Then pulled out my phone and I was able to cancel every card right then and there. The only thing he let me keep was my license

I hope you're kidding. Obviously if you're white and the attacker is black you're in deep shite if you kill them or even assault them.

But what burden would there be for ridding the taxpayers of another parasite?

Most likely no...its a gun man take the wallet. Not worth it. Only if I'm with my girl and I feel she is in real danger of being hurt do I think about it. Money isnt worth my life.

He can have it. Now if it’s just his hands and thinks he could bully me out of my money because I’m older, well let’s just say he’s gonna earn that money that day

If someone has the jump on you with a gun pointed at you, are you gonna try and be faster than someone squeezing a trigger?

In close quarters, a knife is more dangerous than a pistol. People don't give edged weapons the respect they deserve.

Been in the situation before... methhead was trying to rob my roommate and saw me. Needless to say, he didn’t leave with the gun he tried to kill me with. I noticed the bastard didn’t have a clip in the AR, proceeded to hit me upside the head with a .22 pistol and didn’t knock me out, he just pissed me off. I’ll never forget that day, dude is in jail now for attempted murder. Frick that POS, he’s the reason I carry a knife everywhere now and we’ll be getting enhanced carry once I turn 21

TLDR; Methhead tried to rob me, I get the gun out of his hands and yell for my other roommate who was still asleep, and I’m lucky I’m not in jail for attempted murder because I damn near risked it all to kill that bastard. He’s in jail for lacing fentanyl in meth and killing a local area kid (I’ll never understand why people don’t just stick with pot)

Based on people I know who have shot someone, people underestimate what this means. As evidenced by one of the responses you got.

not worth, material shite can easily be replaced.

robbed knife point/gun point both as a teen, obviously too young to be armed back then...other than my gerber.
