I'm gonna try and say this without offending anyone. While the acts of armed intimidation and provocation are gross to start with, I think some of these ccw's aren't doing themselves any favors.
In the public venue, (of course, events concerning home and hearth are different rules). I think Pat Mac's book "
Sentinel: Become the Agent in Charge of Your Own Protection"
https://www.amazon.com/Sentinel-Beco...204&sr=8-1does a really good job of laying a plan for keeping you and your family safe. Getting you and yours off the "X", to a safe place needs to be your mission goal, not salvaging your ego or trying to "win" the shouting match. Dude in the red pick up seemed to have negotiated "safe passage", yet felt the need to stop, and unmount the vehicle. To what end? Bruised ego needed salving? I dunno, I can't read his mind. Myself, if i can back or turn out of that confrontation, that's my plan. I'm not gonna plant my feet and say "Oh no, not today" over a piece of road or sidewalk. Call me a pussy or a coward if you want, I really don't care. I always figure I win every fight that I don't participate in.
