Sorry if this has anything that is considered profanity to anyone. I'm still new to this forum so please forgive me for any inappropriate language I may use.

thats scary to think that if you hadnt gotten there, something much worse could have happened to him. Glad to see no one got hurt
(edited: read the rules about abreviated profanity. LT) & he is in custody. Also that your dad and cousin are taking the next step in protection.

Wow bluefalcon7829, I'm glad nobody was hurt..cept the bad guy that is.
It's unfortunate that it takes an encounter like this before some people finally come to the realization
that they to be better prepared to defend themselves. I see it time and time again.

Chalk one up for the good guys and one really good son. I am glad you were able to help your dad.
BTW... This is a good time to show him that Kimber 1911 you have been looking at. Hint Hint

Thank you for sharing your story!
Sounds like this was just a split second away from ending in a tragedy…..glad it turned out for the best!
Like USA1 said, it's sad that it takes an event like this to change a persons mind about concealed carrying. So many tragic events could be thwarted if we were all equipped to protect ourselves.
