Ok local festavial(sp) is on going it approches dark and during the fireworks a group of teens starts fighting 5-7 of them and you see that the local officers 3 of them are dealing with traffic and etc.... and wont be there anytime soon! as you notice the group fighting you also notice a woman and her 3 young children caught in the scrum! think fast whats it going to be!.......... i know what i did! lets here yours

First I would let the closest officer know what was going on. If he could not pry himself away from directing traffic to help a woman & 3 kids form being injured, I would have to step in & escort the family away from the teens with the least amount of resistance possible. Even if it ment getting hit a couple of times myself. I dont believe drawing a weapon at this point is a wise decision, too many people around. Then after the family is safe, I probably would do what my highschool PE teacher did when we fought, let them fight & declare the last one standing the winner. :lol:

This is my gut reaction statement, If i had time to think more about it I may do things differently.

I would not think about it like I have the luxury of doing now. I need to act immediately and directly. I've been in crazy, high stress, situations before and, for me at least, thinking renders me useless. I've seen grown, otherwise normal, men, in no danger themselves, reduced to panicky babbling idiots who literally can't even dial 911 let alone convey any meaningful information.

Get angry and act decisively. I'm not a big guy so the best I can hope for is to take some of the pressure of the women and her kids. After that I can nurse my wounds with the knowledge that I did the right thing.

I'm with Tom(only I carry no OC). But a ASP sure would be handy. I'd try to distract them, hopefully somebody else would 'acquire a backbone' and help me. Get the Mom & kids out and let the punks kill each other! No need for a weapon display. But I'm dying to hear how you handeled it, Steve? How many went to the hospital? :twisted:

A great ending to what could of been a ugly story. Glad to hear it worked out fine. Although a "stomped sternum" ,I'll bet he'll remember you for a while. :twisted: Lucky he didn't get a TID in the sternum, OUCH!!! Just another day in the park, for you :roll: . Probably seemed more like work, huh? Just another reason why I'm glad to have your instruction. Good job, Deputy!! :biggrin:

You do have a heart in there, someplace, don't you, you big lug. :P After feeling the 'practice' TID impact, I could only imagine what a full thrust would be like. I'll take your word on the "stomp was better", I'll trust you on that! As for you getting soft in your 'old age', :roll: excuse me I have to check the weather channel,cause it's got to be freezing in Hell!! :wink:
