So I have a completely hypothetical situation that I would like to get some input on.


Lets say you were jumped by 3 or 4 dudes one night. Robbed and had a broken bone even.   [bang]
Now in this hypothetical situation the dickheads got away.

Now lets say that - by pure luck - you happen to ride by a house to see dickhead #1 entering. So now you know where dickhead #1 lives.

What would you do?

Easy.

Since I would of reported this to the cops when it happened -- I'd call them back and update them.

It is their job, not yours.


You are dealing w/ people who obviously don't subscribe to the rules of common living -- what makes you think the second you try to jump them they don't shoot you this time?

Are you 100% sure it's the same guy?

Was anything they stole of a nature that it is possible/likely this guy still has some of your stuff in his possession?

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

I would think that would be the smart thing to do. It just sucks that they'll prob end up with probation or something.

hypothetically.

Now that isn't true.



How do you know of their priors? How bad was the person beaten? Were there any weapons involved?

Hmmmm.........I know I would have definitely filed a police report after the first incident. As for what to do about seeing dude #1, well.....it would depend on several things.....

Had this really happened to me, I would probably either be in the hospital, dead, or hiring a really good lawyer, as I generally am carrying and would have shot any or all of the guys and preferably shot them dead. If my wife was with me, I'm sure all four would have been shot as she carries, also......but even then it would depend on the situation (location, other people around, how badly caught offguard we were, etc....)

Ideally, I'd have done a Chuck Norris on all of their butts, taken their wallets, and told them if they called the cops, I'd hunt them down and pull a MIA I, II, and III on them.

Truthfully, though, I'd contact the cops and let them do what they should do. If nothing happens and/or they get away without so much as a wrist slap or even having to pay for my medical expenses, well.........let's just say that they will probably have some serious regrets having ever seen me. I am pretty good at planning things and have LOTS of friends that would have absolutely no problems being my alabi.

I had just copied the link. I'll go to the cops I guess and see what happens.
It's nice to be on the right side of the law for once  [evil]

edit: police report already filed.

To be honest. I'm glad I didn't have a gun at the time. Sure they are degenerates who belong in jail where they can be raped repeatedly. But they don't deserve to be dead. But then again maybe I just a big softie deep down.

that isn't very descriptive.

Sorry - no weapons involved. They broke my right ankle, concussion, and tons of bruises, scrapes, bloody nose etc.
I broke one guy's nose for sure and might have blinded another guy in one eye.
