I went out with the guys - met them at the bar at Chilis. We took Kill Bill Volume 2 over to a friends place and watched it over a 6 pack of Amber Bock.
Okay so we got our liqour, then went driving, and had the images from Kill Bill floating through our TTM. (tired tactical mind) ...oh yea not to mention.. we REALLY gotta go Peeeeee! Sorry but the poster has already started out with a couple things not in their favor.
I see this furry looking creature getting ready to stroll
Not charge, not run, not stumble while foaming at the gums... stroll...
I (...) instinctively grab my 45 I keep in the glovebox
Please tell us that this poster does not leave a weapon in their car protected by 20 dollars worth of flimsy locks and 4-6 easily broken panes of glass...please...
As for 'instinctive'... So called muscle memory et al come from lots of practice. 1) Duck, 2) tuck, 3) unlatch 4) open glovebox 5) retrieve - repeat. repeat. repeat.
Now, some situational awareness here
Very tactical!
So I'm watching this dog stroll around my car
I hear the pitter-patter of paws
Killer instincts for sure.
Too bad discharging a firearm in city limits is a municipal offense, otherwise I'd take matters into my own hands.
That will teach the SOBs to obey leash laws! And if the little girl that owns it cries well lifes a b***h sweetheart! Better learn now! Our motto:
Sic Semper Pets!
oh boy....
The para is at the ready. I walk up and see nothing. I walk to the front door - and I feel a bump. The dog is right between my legs. he darted out of the way and I made my way to the front door.
The dog knew you were there LONG before you did. If an epiphany was to be had, one would think the lightbulbs would pop on about here... This animal was in my opinion based solely on the posters own words almost as much of a threat as the doorknob.
Some of the lights from the car bounced off the wall of the house so I could see the animals eyes about 5 feet away from me as my back is against the wall. My Para is leveled at the 2 glowing green orbs. Oh I wish I had night sights,
A flourish of literary brilliance! Wow.... I can almost FEEL like I am with the puppy the kid next door left outside.
My heart is in my throat and I said to myself - If this thing takes one step towards me, permanent hearing loss and city ordinances be dammed;
Me too! When I fear for my life, and am pulling weapons out and leveling them at the two devil-possessed orbs of evil about to rip my very life from me, I too would be thinking, "I wonder what the perscribed fine for this action is listed as in the municipal code".
The dog turned his head and walked away
Damn... Just as I was gonna say, "Wag yer tail and make my day! MFer!"
I am sorry if this seems harsh to anyoine, especially to the poster. But the truth of the matter is that the anti-gunners LOVE stuff like this. An over-reaction, brought on by imho exagerated fear and the potential of violating numerous laws as well as possibly killing peoples pets are things that the antis just LIVE to exploit. I do not want to even get INTO lawyers, and local law enforcement perspectives on a situation like this... especially if he had dropped the mutt. Again, its the sort of thing people just LOVE to sue over and local LE would probably love to make a code 3 run to a shots fired call.... This sort of post does not help our cause folks.
I do not truly mean to be disrespectful, the exercise above is my attempt to graphically show what sort of response one might get from the 'average fence sitter'. I do not mean direct disrespect for the poster, but I DO want to point out that this sort of testosterone talk over what can easily be viewed as a mundane situation by the 'average citizen' is just not in the best interest of 2nd ammendment supporters.
I leave open the possibility that this was another Mall Ninja type of humor post.

Gosh and I thought I'd never agree with anything that guy said (or at least not how he says it)... where's the crow?
