That was fun, but the cowboy needs to work on his takedown moves.

I love how the cowboy hat guy takes off his glasses and tosses them on the counter.

No need to buy a new pair because the old one got broken.

the skinny little noodle arm thief stood no chance without a gun- once he was disarmed, the gig was over- the cowboy tossed him around like a wet noodle

The last remark on the video said he was handed over to the police. I must be a bad person, as I was thinking: Dead or alive?

When seconds count, police are only minutes away.

[In some US woke cities the 3 participants in the take-down would be arrested and jailed for infringing on the rights of perp-with-a-gun.]

I was bullied when I was a kid, but as I got older, I figured out that thing about fighting back is less painful and embarrassing than being bullied, and...I just started getting bigger.

I have worn glasses since I was about five or six years old, but once I started fighting back, the first thing I would do is take off my glasses and hand them to someone...years later, one of them said “Whenever you took off your glasses, we knew you meant business!”

A few well placed elbows and knees.

Would have been appropriate.

Sounds like you deserve a cowboy hat, too 👍

Heh, well taking them off did keep my parents from killing me...I went through so many glasses when I was growing up that they refused to buy me new glasses for a month!

But honestly, I took them off not to save them, but to keep from having them injure my face if I ended up taking a fist in it.

I was blind as a bat without them!

He disarmed the guy and had help subduing the guy.

Good enough, and better than government work.
