    Thanks for the info, this is very useful stuff.

    And quite good work by the guard.

    The lottery commission and the tribes are tough on competition, but that's another story.

    Down here we had a crew of 2-3 doing armed robberies and I heard people say, "you don't have a chance against three guys." The security guard proved that superior numbers alone are not a deciding factor. It seems that they expected one reaction and got something quite different.

    This guy was pretty awesome as well. Excellent reactions on his part. Either he was very well trained or, like York, he is a natural.

    The York story is awesome. I think it's also pretty telling how his up bringing played a role in his ability to make those shots. Many don't know that he was actually against war and struggled for a long time before he decided to actually serve his country..

    Great example, but then I'd have to tell them who he was.

    Taffy 3 - as a counter to the big caliber gun always wins.

    Palm Bay, Florida runs a higher than average Dirtbag/sq. mile which may be a factor in the guard's outstanding situational awareness.
    GK, whereabouts are you located? I'm from the Space Coast, just moved to TN a couple years ago.
