Guy Stops Armed Robber With A Step Laddder!

[BruiseLee]

Not my first choice for a weapon, but I guess it can work in a pinch!

Here's the video: http://webcastr.com/videos/news/caveman-clobbers-robber-with-a-ladder.html

I like that the guy who clobbers the robber is named "Caveman" - he may look like one, but good for him for standing up to that low life!

Tools abound if we only look for them.

Dave "Caveman" Smith, run what he brung and kept it fed.





I don't need no $1,000 shotgun. I need to know how to run the gun I got! - Clint Smith.

Redneck ingenuity.

Dont make Bubba mad.
He knows the difference between right and wrong. And is not afraid to educate you on proper social behavior.

Reasonable enough strategy. Stool/chair vs. edge weapon dates back to the Renaissance (I've seen illustrations in the old fencing manuals, though I don't have it handy). This is even still taught in some Spanish knife-fighting schools.

Good thing the stepstool wan't painted black. Then they'd be trying to outlaw assault stools.


"When stepstools are outlawed, only outlaws will have stepstools!"

And then stools will require a disposal system.

Coincidentally, my mother's foster father's family crest is "a 3-runged step ladder, erect." Now that I know how useful a step ladder can be (martially speaking), I may see about grafting that crest onto my own... once I figure out what my crest is.
