    Scary - How Would You Have Reacted?



    Say you were legally armed and this happened to you. How would you have handled this situation?

      I would have gunned it as soon as that a**hole stepped on my hood. My life would have felt threatened at that moment.

        In a vehicle on a public thoroughfare against unarmed, intoxicated hoodlums. You cease being a pedestrian with the right of way when mayhem is about to ensue. Firearms wouldn't even enter the picture, even if one was in my lap.

        My cellphone would get some play once I was safely away from the scene.

          Well said. In this scenario, windows up and hit the throttle. My vehicle is a better defensive weapon than my firearm in this case.

                God it would have been so entertaining if he had pummeled to death all 7 of them. But, it was still a good watch. Guy is way lucky they didn't drag him out of his car...

                  I would have shot the shirtless guy smashing my windows or at the very least run them over. I'm glad they got a beat down with that bat, should have been a mace. and lol@the guy recording getting excited

                    Dayum that one dude got lucky. I would have run over as many of those douche bags as possible while I was fleeing from their hostile advance

                      +1. There's no freaking way I'm getting out of the car for a 1 vs 7 fight. Ballsy but stupid, he could of ended up dead if they had pulled him out of the car.

                        There is a line between being brave or coward, the guy choose to be brave to compront 7 thugs. Sure if you have a gun in hand it will be a great equalizer, the guy have other option on the situation. He should just drive away and call 911.

                          I would have kept driving. And made it a point to accelerate big time as soon as the idiot got up on my hood to make sure he remembers his fall.

                          But that would have been the right thing to do: do not engage the idiot when you can escape unharmed. I'd rather have a dent on my car than end up in jail or in the hospital. It's not cowardice, it's common sense.

                            Yep... would have been my instinct. Then call the cops.
