Road rage incident in San Antonio.  Guy with a baseball bat is taken down by the Camaro owner protecting himself and his car.

Don't **** with Camaro owners.

Sharp Camaro...looks like chrome ZR1's on it.
I'm too wack for a sig. (Camaro, not just a car, it's a lifestyle.)

Not smart to attack an armed citizen with a bat.

Forget Camaro OWNERS. Don't mess with the CAMARO.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Obviously, he must not have known that the guy was armed.  Poor guy was hit 3 times, no wonder he died.   The Camero dude must be a decent shot.

This is the problem that criminals face in states that have "shall issue" CCW laws.  What appears to be "easy pickings" may actually not be.

If only the Camero owner had a taser on him, he could have tased the dude.   But if the guy was driving a Lancer, perhaps it was best to put him out of his misery.

Of course we have road rage issues. Combine the constant spine jarring from the suspension and the endless rattles and squeaks, with the fact there is no back seat room to "blow off a little steam" and you've got a ticking time bomb on your hands.  Throw in a "HEY, NICE MULLET" and then run for your life....

sig..  that is pretty much the way I see it.

If citizens are armed then it becomes a very effective anger management tool.

People who think that attacking others with a bat is a good idea or that they simply can't help themselves... all of a sudden.. get a whole new outlook on life or...  cease to be a part of the gene pool.

Either way works for me.

If shooting him once makes him stop doing bad things then once is enough.

anger management is often harder on some of the really tough cases and requires follow up shots.

you know how it works in the US swoop, if he let him live then lawyers would've finished the job off sueing the last drop of blood out of the camaro guy.
