Chl guys, how bad of form would it have been if a chl holder would have at that point where the lady starts to threaten taking said products just placed his hand in the area of his waste band where he was carrying? Not exposing a gun at all but just putting her on notice that you are not going to allow being attacked?

The right thing to do would have been to pay for all 10 and then give them to her since she needed them more than you.

No serious (visible) threat of imminent danger, and someone threatening to take something from your possession (that you don't actually own yet) is not grounds for lethal force.

No I totally agree that is not grounds to pull a gun on anyone. I was more thinking that as you are removing yourself from the situation that your hand is in the posture that you are ready to if need be as you don't know what a crazy bitch might do next.Originally posted by cobrajet69 View PostComment

She probably was an Extreme Coupon-er and needed 10 to get "the deal".

If anything, he could have stepped back, put his hands up in the "stop", raised his voice and yelled, "Stop! Stand back!" or something to that effect. It would have set him up now as the victim, trying to defend himself, trying to deescalate the situation by removing himself. Cameras and people would hear it as witness. IF she continued to pursue or accost, THEN present to the ready.

If you think some crazy chick yelling at you from a few feet away (presumably, while holding 8 bottles of baby drops) is a reason to even start the motion to your gun you need to rethink carrying. She has no visible weapon. And when he told her that she will not be taking them she just started yelling again.Originally posted by inline 6 View PostOriginally posted by Theodore RooseveltComment

It was pure hypothetical. It's not my personal feelings. Unfortunately people that will yell at you over 2 bottles of gas drops when they already have 8 are the kind that are stupid enough to escalate a situation to force over such trivial things.Comment

It is Mineral Wells so the first time I read the original post that's what I assumed she was trying to get so many for.

Pulled a pistol out of her purse and shot you for it. Way to not read the rest of the thread first.Originally posted by Cobraman View PostComment

I read the whole thread. It would have been stupid to show a gun. I don't even know why that would "hypothetically" cross your mind.Originally posted by inline 6 View Post2012 GT500Comment
