Wyatt Earp Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Hi, not sure if this was mentioned, but the guy actually mentioned on the radio that he had veered off the proper route as he missed one of the sign boards. Irrespective...he had the right reaction. There was a thread a while back regarding self defence while on the bike...and this is a perfect example of how taking Krav Maga(or whatever classes) for 6 weeks would give you a false confidence in thinking you can defend yourself against any assailant....and then out pops another 2 assailants....and there goes whatever skills you think you had from couple of self defence classes( i however think everyone should learn some sort of self defence)! best defense is to get away! I've been shot before in a similar situation, however...I decided to wrestle with the assailant, instead of giving the assailant my cheap ass cellphone...a football career was ended. Best defence is to create distance between you and the assailant...period! Well done on staying calm Mr Malcolm! I support fully what you say, people need to do some form of self defence.
Guest EdEdEd Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Why ?A dong with a very valid point, go and ride the Irene area and see if they will take your bike off you so easily. If they have a gun, Ill give them everything without asking question... I'm not willing to get shot over a bike! I'm not stupid
DIPSLICK Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 ShouldaCouldaWoulda Lots of theories here.Things are different when the **** actually hits the fan Glad he is okay.Father.brother.son.fellow rider.100% END OF THE DAY, HE WENT HOME TO HIS FAMILY, AND HE LIVES ANOTHER DAY A DAY WITH HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDSAND A DAY TO MAKE MONEY TO BUY ANOTHER BIKE, ITS A MATERIAL GOODS THAT CAN BE REPLACED BarHugger, zabalad, rouxtjie and 2 others 5
dirtrider Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 The day is going to come when an armed cyclists gun goes off by accident and he will be the victim of his own ways. The reason these thieves have guns is bacause they steal them. So if we have less guns then there are less to steal.Why do think America is so bad? They all think they have the right to own 20 firearms. And then... low and behold some lunatic gets a hold of one of them and goes mad.Didn't the person who invented the AK 47 kill himself because of all the damage that thing has caused? I am 100% against all guns. They do not represent a human society. Aha so when one day (I know this will NEVER happen to you) a few of these nice gentleman walks into your house armed with their unlicensed firearms I suppose you first gonna sit down and have coffee with them before they proceed to rape your wife and daughters and drown you son in a bathtub full of boiling water ?

KENDA Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Look, I'll be honest.... Stealing a bike IMO is not worth the death penalty, so unless someone is really giving me the impression that they are unstable enough to kill me, I wouldn't like to kill someone for my bike. Times are tough, crime is a symptom of these struggles.... If someone wants to steal my bike to feed his family and I put a cap in between his eyes I wont be able to live with myself. Even junkies have families who care about them. gogo@ and Blackbeard 2

People that want to feed their families do not steal funny enough , people that want to buy drugs and people that are to lazy to work steals !! gummibear 1

People that want to feed their families do not steal funny enough , people that want to buy drugs and people that are to lazy to work steals !! If hard work was the pre-requisite to getting a job I know of a couple of people who shouldn't be unemployed right now. Any way, I just created a scenario to carry my point. Fact is, you don't know what other people are going through, putting a cap between there eyes isn't a solution to anything. In a sick way, theft can be noble, depending on your perspective.... Think robben Hood.... Lol, how's that for funny ?
