STOP! OR MY WIFE WILL SHOOT! Love having a wife who is as fanatical as I am about carrying.

No, the line was "Stop! Or my mom will shoot!" but you need a good Stallone imitator to really pull it off.

Thread winner!

Totally worth the time to wipe off my keyboard.

I sure do, I had an occasion last Saturday at Gander Mountain. My wife waited in the car and noticed A man was walking in the parking lot approaching people at random. She waited till he was far away from the car and ran into the store because she noticed him staring at her. When we came out he was to my left about 20 yards away, we walked to the car and I saw him come around the back of my car, when I got to the door he started to walk towards me (wife was in the car) I put my hand on my gun and said rather loudly " Do not come near me if you do I will consider it a threat and I will draw this gun that my hand is on right now" He froze where he stood. I kept my hand on my gun and backed into my car locked the doors and left. I called Gander and told them about him. I had no idea what he wanted and was not going to give him the chance to even ask.

The only thing they need to hear is "BANG" repeated as many times as necessary!

That reminds me of the "April Fools" story about an armed robbery stakeout.

FREEZE, TURKEY!!!

Yo homie! That my briefcase?

The jokes would be funny except that it concerns me that some people reading this might think them serious or actual practice.

It is most effective to have set verbiage to use when avoiding and repelling a criminal attack, and to use it EVEN IF the threat is so close that warning and response must occur together.

I recommend the "BACK OFF!" sequence because it works so effectively UP TO the actual response and trying to insert additional wording in a situation that is already fraught with live threatening fear and peril is just not a good idea.

You definitely do NOT want to be saying anything that will not do you service when played back by MSNBC or ABC over the following months as you await the Grand Jury decision or your trial. Seriously.

I also hope that people realize that certain posts are jokes and that their statements could be used against them.
