Yep. None were injured or robbed of their money or dinner. AFAIC the guy is a winner.

That is the next step in the progression. One of the groid LM-ers will go past the PNT and someone will lawfully, and with great prejudice, dump his brains all over the sidewalk. Then it will be on.

While not exactly the best choice for a self defense gun, I wouldn't want to get shot by one. I've seen too many hogs and cattle that were being slaughtered killed by a 22 bullet between the eyes. The alligator hunters seem to use a lot of them as well. It would be better than nothing, if needed.

No one knows what actually transpired and why the pistol was brandished. My thinking is, he's lucky that he wasn't shot in self-defense. You have to give the guy credit, he has balls.

I was hoping someone would pull out the belt-fed and really solve problems, but this guy got the minimum done just fine.

I can attest to this. I once cleared most of a barracks with a four foot indigo snake. I swear, there were guys who went out through the windows!

It's really no big trick to hit an eye socket-sized target at 10 or 15 feet with one of those mini revolvers.

The only thing you would have “dropped” is the lunch special...

It would go down like a sweet muffin.

Good points, of course.

I agree, carrying a weapon like that is not a win the war strategy, it’s more of a flip the odds back into your favor when your aggressor lease expects it strategy..... I’m pretty sure that powder burns on the forehead could absolutely ruin anyones day.

The top handgun instructor for the Navy Seals, carry's one of the small pistols like that, in his back pocket, you would be amazed what he can do with it. Rio7

Snowflakes think all guns spray bullets. Maybe they thought he had a “hundred round clip” lol

Not my first or even 5th choice, but in this case it served its purpose.

The Dockers with gravy stains on them should have been a warning sign to the Commies. This old guy clearly doesn't give a fucqk about much of anything.
