Great material. My hat's off to you, gentlemen, both for the work you do and for the good will to share here.
Would cutting the forefinger and thumb off of my right glove take it too far?However, a percentage (very small) can read you, the gun enthusiast--your photo vest, your walk, your Glock hat, which states have "concealed carry", etc. If you are an adult white male in a state with CCW, you are more likely to be left alone by those that can read you.
"You can say ‘stop’ or ‘alto’ or use any other word you think will work, but I’ve found that a large bore muzzle pointed at someone’s head is pretty much the universal language."
That is for sure the biggest up-side if you do succeed ... but the rest of the time ..... it is those very people I worry about (next victims) ...... and of course that is where our wish to carry comes in IMO. Just never know.but we've also saved those whom he would have robbed, or raped, or killed, on his release.
as in "That MF'in cop/person pointed that MF'in gun at my MF'in head, and I looked down that MF'in big hole and thought, 'MF!!!' " (I think you get the general sense... )
Does recidivism only cover BG's caught and convicted? The quote says "inmates are back behind bars". That is different from "inmates are committing crimes". Any thoughts/impressions on that?Nationally, the inmate recidivism rate (i.e. those reincarcerated after committing another crime) is running at about 70% after 5 years. That means that within 5 years of their release, 7 out of 10 inmates are back behind bars.
Yes, you're right - the recidivism statistics only cover those convicted of further crimes. I'm sure there are those who commit crimes and are not caught - they don't show up in the statistics.Does recidivism only cover BG's caught and convicted?
