My friend stands up to him, pulls out his knife and tells him to get back into the truck. We are not small kids either, my friend is 6'0, 230, and I am 6'4 190. The guy nearly **** his pants and ran back to his truck. I was like "WTF ARE YOU DOING YOU IDIOT!!??!?" I can't believe my friend pulled a knife on that guy, but now that I look back at it, that probably saved us from a whole lotta trouble.

That's a good way to get shot. I can understand protecting yourself in a violent situation, but pulling a knife of a guy that is simply asking a question is not very smart. Just something to consider.

I find it totally bizarre that most state governments won't allow law-abiding citizens to protect themselves. I've had my CHL for 5 years and have only had 1 instance of a threat...and I only showed my weapon. It's amazing when a group of thugs want to mug a "helpless" couple and then they see the handle of a .45 caliber. Changes their minds REAL quick. To totally rely on the cops and the govt. to protect you is suicide. Yes, liberalism is a mental disorder.
