How quickly a situation escalated


-SuperMike-

Recommended Posts

Me and a few friends of mine were comming home from a party on Saturday night. It was about 2:30 P.M. and we pulled into Mcdonalds to get somthing to eat. As i get out of the car one of my friends noticed this guy from school who chain snatched him. The kid dropped out of school a few days later so we never got the chain back. Mike my friend who got chain snatched wanted to jump him but i didn't want to cuase a seen and have the police come. There were 3 kids with the chain snatcher, and there was 4 of us. As we started to walk toward his car the kid instantly noticed Mike and went into his car to grab somthing. He knew it was comming once we started to walk over to him. So i figured he was grabbing a gun/weapon. Mike my friend who is 22 has an Automatic 45 caliber handgun wich he just got (Legally) in his glove compartment. The kid was frantically looking for somthing under the Driver's seat. The other kids that were with him were all looking at him waiting to get whatever it was under the seat. I rushed to Mike's car and grabbed his gun. By that time the kid pulled out a Butterfly knife opened it and walked towards my friends. I ran over there with the gun in my hand and held it to his face and told him to leave. He dropped his knife and put his hands up. I told him to leave again and they got in their car and skidded away.

 

 

 

I never would have thought that i'd be in a situation were i am actually willing to shoot someone. That night if he would have stabbed anyone of my friends i would have probally of shot him. I'm not violent i was just protecting them. I didn't have any intention on fighting them or jumping them.

 

 

 

Has anyone has any experiance were a situation escalating soo quickly?

Yeah, It's called my life.

 

 

 

Listen man, I'm not sure if you live in the U.S. But if you would've shot that kid, then you would've either most likely have gone to jail the rest of your life for manslaughter, unless he attacked you with the knife.

 

 

 

If he attacked you or your freinds, It is a possiability that you could've gone to court for Self-Defense and pleded Innocent. Chances are, even if he would have stabed you and you still shot him, that gun isn't registered under your name so that = Bad.

I'm not going to kill somene over a chain, that's not even the point. He pulled a weapon out and was walking right up to 3 of my friends by himself. His friends were just standing there.

Yeah its real cool being in a situation which, if it had escalated anymore, could have resulted in one or more people dying or getting seriously injured.

Well he just sent me an angry PM (Heh, cute fella' got his feelings hurt) so I don't think it was that sarcastic lol.

 

 

 

 

 

Also I think a chain is like a necklace kind of thing, except...ehm... not lady-like? No idea, I only know this from the boondocks. :lol:

I wasnt going to shoot to kill, i was going to shoot to stop him. And i didn't, and i'm glad i didn't and i'm glad it ended. I don't want to go through that again.

 

 

 

Chain = neckalace.

What the hell is going on in your mind? Key word in self defense is defense. In self defense your goal is to "put the person in a neutral position" (or GTFO if he's using a knife because that's a massive disadvantage). You're not here to kick someone's [wagon] just to prove how strong you are, that's just an immature and irrational behavior.

I've gotta agree that that sounds pretty damn cool. Not if someone died of course, but they didn't.

 

 

 

I'm not advocating pulling a gun on someone, I'm just saying it sounds cool as hell.

I didn't say i was using the gun for self defense. If he would have stabbed any one of us i would have done somthing i'm not letting any of my friends or me get stabbed and let them walk away with it.

your actions were responsible. You knew you werent going to hurt anyone but you knew that the knife woulc. You took controll of the situation and it all ended clean instead of cuffs around ur hands.

 

 

 

You were not apart of it, you didnt encourage any violence you simply overpowered his knife and took control and was responsible.

Don't you know the first rule of MMO's? Anyone higher level than you has no life, and anyone lower than you is a noob.

Things that worry me

 

 

 

1) the only reason you didnt want to "jump" this kid is the fact the police might come, rather than any moral reason

 

 

 

2) people are willing to threaten/stab/shoot each other over jewellery, seriously WTF.

 

 

 

3) you "rushed" along with a gun - those thing are dangerous (duh) and are NOT something you point at anyone unless you intend to shoot them - period.

 

 

 

If this was in the UK, you'd be in prison for a long long time boy - hopefully its the same in the US.

 

 

 

This entire situation sickens me.

1. I didn't rush over there with a gun in my hand until i seen him reaching for somthing.

 

 

 

2. I wasn't going to shoot him over a piece of jewelry, I was protecting my friends/me.

 

 

 

3. I didn't want to jump him becuase I don't want to creat bigger situations aside from the fight (future situations)

 

 

 

4. I live in the USA
