      Why you should have a plan (and a large dog)

      So last night while I was becoming a member at MCF&G, my wife had some excitement. While I was gone, she decided to go ahead and mow the yard. Parts of the yard was getting pretty tall, so WTH. My house is on a main highway, and in the early evening it gets pretty busy. So, she was mowing...

      Monday night scare

      My wife and I had gone to the store for printer ink (I have a paper due tomorrow) and when we were within a mile of our home, someone on the north side of the road shined a green laser in our car. It looked like it was coming from a house. I laughed it off at first, thinking some kid is playing...

      Scaring the sheep in Fort Wayne

      I went out for dinner with my husband and his father at Pizza Hut in Fort Wayne tonight. I happened to be OC'ing, while my husband was CC'ing (both due to wardrobe choices for the day, no philosophy there). We walked in and I immediately had a group of men staring me down. They were...

      "Get out of my house"

      I wasn't sure whether or not I wanted to post this, but I guess I'll go ahead anyway. I recently moved, along with a few college friends, into a house just a couple miles from campus. The neighborhood, while not great, isn't terrible either. My roommate Michael, invited his sister to...

      Situational awareness (and a lesson learned for my son)

      My middle son has been getting more and more into golf, and yesterday wanted me to walk down to the woods with him to watch him use his new driver. Let me begin by saying I carry a Taurus PT745 on my person even when I'm in my home, and yesterday, I was carrying in a pocket holster. About 8:00...

      Scenario: Could I have detained this man?

      Let me start by saying that I am the bigger man, not the type to be easily angered (thank you US Army for some self control!), and simply let it go and filed a police report. I went to Walmart in Schererville yesterday evening with the girlfriend and drove her beater car, a 4th gen VW Beetle...

      To the Officers on here?

      On Sunday night I had a 13-14 year old boy pull a knife on me. Unfortunatly I had to pull my gun on him. As my wife was on the phone with dispatch they asked me to put my weapon away for the officers to come out. As I walked into the house to secure my handgun they boys took off. The officers...

      IUPUI Campus Police stoped me.

      Well earlier today I was on IUPUI campus working at a summer program and when it was over I was going to leave and when I walked out the door that’s when I pulled my shirt up to revile my gun so I could OC, "side note I've been doing this for the past 2 weeks." Then I saw a friend of mine and...

      Road rage SD

      Hi everyone, I've been a lurker for a while, decided to finally register an account. Anyways, I have a somewhat long but interesting story that happened to me about a month ago that I'd like to share and get opinions on. I was driving a friends truck, with him in the passenger seat, a girl...

      How many of you have actually had to draw on someone?

      I ask because a few weeks ago I was leaving a pizza joint and fishing for my keys in my pocket when I looked up to see an urban looking fellow with a 4 inch blade pointed in my general direction. He proceeded to tell me, in an urban tone, that I had made a mistake being a color not similar to...

      How do i carry while swimming? I had a scare!

      Me and my fiance, 3yr old son, and my 2 German Shorthair Pointers went down to the beach at our local reservoir right before dark to take a dip in the lake at the beach and to let the dogs cool off. As we swam a little longer and it got darker and darker, the beach became quiet and before i knew...

      Rural Location= Safety, not always, what happened at my place

      First off, we live in a rural setting on a good amount of acerage, miles from the nearest town on a gravel road. I had the day off a while back and decided to do some target practice with my pistol. It was around 1030 hours when I finished. So I am sitting on my front porch cleaning my sidearm...

      Who else?

      I just wanted to know if anyone else has ever been drawn down on. I just read the post by SavageEagle and his encounter with the LEOs. Sorry about the long post, please don’t get mad at me. I just never had a place to tell it before. When I was 21, I think, there was guy peeping in the rear...

      PPD Pulled A Gun On Me Today...

      So, I'm sitting out at my storage unit today just minding my own, loading up my truck with boxes, strapping down the tarp before the rain hits. I get everything I can loaded up and I'm strapping down the last 4 bungees in the back when I hear someone coming up to my left. EPIC Situational...

      First hand account.

      The issue of losing my job over this is being discussed here. I thought that a discussion of my account of the incident would be both of interest and therapeutic. So as promised when I first posted in January here is the statement as I provided both the police and Pizza Huts Insurance Agent...

      So, I was fired today...

      After three months(paid) of just waiting following my incident. I was finally called in for a meeting with my supervisors at 8am this morning. The person in charge showed up 30 minutes late to let me know she was "not going to drag this out." and that I was being terminated for failure to...

      *Upsetting Situation Tonight*

      Let me preface this by saying I am still dealing with the adrenaline overload. I apologize as this is the second time I have nearly had to draw down on someone---and I'm still not accustomed to it. ~45 minutes ago I returned to my apartment from work and night classes. My neighbors are an older...

      OC at least postponed a crime!

      I was OC’ing in my favorite Gas America yesterday morning as usual and while getting my 44oz Diet Pepsi I noticed a "gangsta" come in the set of doors nearest me and immediately start looking around in a suspicious manner. So I put my lid on my drink and tossed some trash away when I noticed a...
