He told me that he was approached by a man who asked him for a cigarette while he was walking his dog at 0600 hrs.
Ain't this a town of just 1,800 people, at 6 o'clock in the morning? The sort of place where nothing ever happens? Sounds to me that he was placed in a real difficult situation even if he did have a gun. What are ya gonna do, pull your weapon and tell a guy asking for a cigarette to get the fugg back? Had a walk-up situation like that happen to me one time at night outside a strip mall when I was walking home late; two street evangelists from a well known urban outreach ministry approach me and walk right up to my personal space. Made me realize how easy it is for someone to do that, and short of turning away and actively evading as they approach, there ain't a whole lot one can do about it. Sounds like for the elderly gent who got jumped the situation went from normal to FUBAR in just a second or two. I hope he recovers well. Birdwatcher

There's a reason "GFY" is considered an appropriate verbal greeting in some parts of the earth. Dave

TRH,
My apology for what I said about your dog this morning.
I was hungover and there was no reason for my being that caustic.
Travis That statement demonstrates a lot of quality on your part, and is very much aprreciated.

I agree.
If you dig really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really deep, I'm not that bad of a person.
Some days.

The right gun first, a good dog will be another advantage, were I a robber, I wouldn't pick anyone looking me dead in the eye witha damn bulldog or rott at their side.  Especially if the bulldog or rott is looking like she's waiting for the go signal. That's my dog's look, as she stares down gangsta wannabes we occasionally pass on evening walks, many of whom won't deviate one iota from their path to avoid her. It's a pride thing, I think (on the part of the wannabe). She doesn't bark or growl. Not one speck. She's a perfect lady. The leash remains slack, and she remains at my left side (my dogs are trained to walk proper on a leash). It's just a body language of total confidence and readiness (and, in her case, just a little bit of hoping, LOL). Agreed, no need in being a crook anyway, and really no need in being a crook getting the chit torn outta your ass by a chainsaw bulldog while you're in the process of catching 45 cal slugs.
Trump Won!

I think if you Google search Dwain Palmer attack Hinckley Minnesota you can read the newspaper article about this. They only took his cell phone which allowed the police to find them.
This man had extensive plastic surgery and cracked ribs.
The surgeon said that his injuries were among the worst he has ever seen.
One of the dirt bags just got out of prison in November.
I guess they just attacked him for the fun of beating a 64 year old white man.
I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger!
There is only one kind of dead, but there are many different kinds of wounded.

Looks like the mother and son team got beat up a bit, themselves. Perhaps while resisting arrest?

They are the ones I buy my tires from, about 5 years bought a motorcycle off his son Chris who had a dealership and who was sitting beside him in the video. This crap happens too often in this a relatively small town of around 4K.

Damn, seeing that old gentleman bruised up like that just makes a guy's blood boil.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

One of the members of our local American Legion was walking his dog past a church at 0600 hrs and three native American youths beat him and left him for dead.
This is making me rethink my J Frame as a CCW. Is 5 shots enough against three attackers? Didn't realize that his happened over 6 years ago. http://www.presspubs.com/article_fa2fdcc9-ac60-5c81-87db-e68fec579142.html

Birdwatcher That's exactly what you do. Put your hand up to let them know you don't appreciate the approach. Use your command voice to tell them to "Stop, don't come any closer, I have a gun." If they don't have bad intent no harm done. If they do they don't want someone yelling and attracting attention.
