Before I even begin, please refrain from the patent pending "what do you expect if you live in California" crap. I expect to live as an American just like you.
Two things have happened over the last year that have really spoken to me. I live at the foot of the Reagan Library. It's a conservative area. Votes GOP in nearly every election. Average income in the low $80K.
The first thing was at a Vons store. A gigantic black green beret was behind me in line. I mention his race and size only because in Simi Valley there are very few Gigantic (and I'm talking huge) black green berets buying oatmeal in Vons. In fact, Simi is pretty white bread. I said, "you go ahead, I have a lot." He kindly refused. I insisted. So he went ahead. The person in front of him insisted he go ahead as well. Then the person in front of that person insisted until the soldier was at the front of the line. He put down his purchases (oatmeal and fruit) and the checker rang him up. Two people raced across the store to scan their own debit cards to pay for his purchases. Hand shakes and thank yous all around. Makes me cry to think of it.
Friday morning I pull into a gas station. I'm in my pj's because I have minor surgery that day and am taking my 16 year old daughter to school. I put the pump into the tank and start the machine. A man comes up behind me and says, "so, how's that vote working for you". I respond, "I beg your pardon?" He says, "your vote, your bumper sticker (Bush Cheney 2004). How's that working for you?" "It's working just fine, thank you," I said and turned away. "You Bushbots are all the same. You don't want to hear the truth. Now people are dying over there," he YELLED. "People died under Clinton, too, pal, in fact had he finished the job instead of getting a "job" in the oval office, we wouldn't have had to go back," I retorted. I turned back to my car and he grabbed my shoulder and turned me around. "Take your hands off me," I said. "There were no weapons of mass destruction and Bush lied....." he started until I shook his hand off my shoulder. "You attack a 50 year old woman in her pajamas at a gas station over a bumpersticker. That's pretty damn low even for a liberal," I said. "What?" he said, "I was only asking you a question."
At this point my daughter starts out of the car going "mooommmm???" (She's a red belt) "Get back in the car," I told her. Then I got in the car, too and we started to leave. As I was leaving he was standing in the gas station yelling "Sieg Heil" and giving me the Nazi salute.
I got a picture of his license plate and filed a complaint at the gas station and at the police station.
Seems the Constitution only applies if you're a liberal. My blood pressure was so high when I got to the hospital they wouldn't even operate. But if the police find this man, he's getting a lesson in civil and criminal court.
After 9 years, I've gotten pretty used to it
Case closed.
If that ever becomes a requirement around here, we're in trouble.
Just damn. If you're ever assaulted like that again, don't forget that if you're holding an active hose, drenching the guy in gasoline might not be a bad idea, depending on how ugly it's getting.
Actually, I can't help but laugh at them sometimes, and it sure gets their panties in a bunch.
No kidding. Sometimes you just pray they're sterile.
Nail him.
You go girl!
By the way, one of the things that sealed the deal in convincing me that leftists were frauds was the behavior of their men.
Cowards and no chivalry.
Ugh.
Hopefully they'll all die off soon.

Please see Post #22....!!!
[hee hee hee]
Yeah, I did, after posting mine.
Bravo! Sir!
LOL!! "MFing Honky is crazy!"
I figure scumbags like this sooner or later have an "enlightening" that pushes the survival gear into place and they back away. Not that they learn anything from it but I doubt that guy will forget what you did. Hopefully screaming nightmares and ice cold sweats. Hehe!

I think it was the "goofy grin" I was wearing as I was calculating how to get him in range that tipped him off.
I was supposed to be "scared".
...darn.
Never COULD get that stuff right.
I figuring he didn't think of himself as such "hot stuff" after our little encounter. Probably got into something a little less "illuminating".....
One can only hope. That'll learn 'im.
Way to go! You did great! Absolutely great. Hope they catch the creepy SOB.
Oooh, forgot the Ear.
Very nice target too.
Thanks. Tough targets, all. Adam's Apple can be fatal, with a good reactive move and response.
I think I'll get my CC and just think "center mass".
Well, you did ask about a Maglight as a defensive tool.
I'll always choose a good 1911 first and foremost, but knowing how to use whatever comes to hand is a very good thing too.
When he touched you, he committed assault.
You should go to your local police station and press charges.
If I can't kick these bastards in the throat, they shouldn't be touching any of us. Make him pay.
Indeed. Armed Americans (INCLUDING airplane passengers) are the world's best defense.
Not all Powers that Be realize that. Clavicle or Adams Apple are now going to be primary targets, as they're the most "fixed".
