    Oakland Armed Robbery

    So today 9-1-15 at approx 4pm I was Robbed by 3 "dark" individuals while walking to my car on 62nd St and Telegraph.

    I was leaving my family business with my father and brother in law at about 4pm today. Just was I walked up to our car and I'm about to load my dogs into the back of the car and my backpack in the trunk 3 guys ran up from behind me and yelled give me the F'in backpack N***A and grabbed me trying to rip my backpack off. I was carrying a Multicam 511 Tactical backpack, which had all my personal belonging's like insurance and crap in it as well as my locked up Larry Vickers RTF2 G17, with Tan Surefire X300 Ultra and my Sig P238. I struggled with them for a second or two before I realized that there were 3 of them on me. After they got my backpack another one of them proceeded to rip my chains off my neck. In all the scuffle of them ripping my backpack off my dogs leash flew out of my hand and my dog ran into the middle of Telegraph, Out of the grace of god she didn't get hit. I have no idea how.

    After they got my stuff they ran to a get away car on 62nd street and drove down side streets towards Oakland. I called OPD and they got there for the report about 10min after it all happened. After an hour or so and 4 eye witnesses they finished up taking their report.

    I daily appendix carry my P238 at work and my RTF2 sits on my desk. I've been robbed before at work and I work hard to try and prevent being a victim again at all costs, but because of the BS laws and how ****ty Alameda county is with letting legal people get CCW's I was yet again a victim, with the situation out of my control.

    The whole base of this thread is to say that I was legally following the law with my guns in locked cases and thats ultimately what caused more guns to get out on the streets in the hands of worthless thugs to do more harm to more innocent victims.

    Sorry to hear that. In my good cause statement in my CCW application I mentioned that I often times have to work in Oakland...
    I'd agree with you but then we'd both be wrong...

          OP is a scary law abiding citizen, might go crazy. If he's a privileged white, then even more a reason for the county to not issue a CCW.

          OP, sorry to hear. When those guns are used in crimes, blood is solely in the hands of the Alameda county sheriff.

                  Hope you get your pistols back and the thugs get caught. Did anybody get a license plate number or any surveillance vids?

                    Sorry to hear. Maybe it's time you make appointment with your local sheriff and explain that you need ccw. You already have a good cause.

                      Serious question OP. Had you been carrying IWB or appendix at the time what would you have done? Would you have had the opportunity to draw and fire? Would you have done so? Did the perps have weapons that you could see?

                        Valid question, but I was also thinking if he was carrying on him there would be atleast one gun or maybe two if both where on him not in the hands on criminals. I would think let them have the backpack and go you still have your guns.

                              The thread title says it was an armed robbery. But the OP didn't tell us what they were armed with.
