I don't have a gun, but I will be bringing my extendable police batton with me. ;)

Careful, they're illegal to carry in many states. I'm assuming that since you own one, you have checked to be sure that it is legal. Also, if you decide to travel with it, make sure it's legal in the state(s) that you're entering.
 
I would love to have witnessed that.

Why would some little skinny kid try to test you? It's like those NY toy dogs that bark at the big dogs that walk by, and the big dogs are like, "Yeah' whatever kid." LOL!


Right. no idea guess he wanted my phone that bad :S. It was kinda dumb.. i mean it's the subway.... and we were not at the stop yet i would have ran after him and done the same anyways.. but well he learned his lesson.. what was more annoying was i had to stay around and give statements to the police..
 
I feel sorry for all of you Americans that feel the need to carry a concealed gun with you at all times.

Ive never even fired anything other than an air soft rifle, and will never need to.

Yep, Ive probably doesn't fire anything, nor does Steve fire him. He has a nice work environment in Apple, and he designs most of Apple's stuff! He's safe! :eek:
:D
 
I don't think I'd deal with this, seeing as I live in a small town. Electronics here are stolen more when they're just left unattended. I hope I don't jynx myself though and lose a finger!
 
Had a young Japanese guy lift it out of my pocket at a bar... iPhone thefts generally don't happen here though.
 
Concealed carry here as well with enough hollow point .40 cal between myself and anyone who chooses to attempt to victimize me.

I can not imagine living in a state that does not allow that.


Here in the UK I also conceal carry. Anyone trying to steal
my new IP4 will feel my wrath when I unholster my catapult and fire a hollow pebble their way that could potentially result in nasty bruising.

Just a friendly warning folks.
 
Well I may be a scrawny 25 year old gay white boy living in the southside of Atlanta in a bad area of town, but I carry at least one pistol at all times, if not two, so if someone tries anything with me, it'll end badly. I'm very defensive of myself and property.

Ok sheep. You say that now but wait until one day you may be in a position where you are thankful someone nearby was concealing.
 
If you are in constant fear of taking out your phone then I really feel sorry for you and should grow some balls.
 
only the cops should have guns. what is the matter with you people? i will dial 911 and get my phone back that way. if someone pulls a gun on me i will submit to them. surely something terrible has happened to that poor person to make them resort to crime. it isn't their fault.

bunch of animals some of you are

This is un-*******believable. Criminals thrive on this type of sheepish attitude and you're the reason they may prosper. Congratulations. You're so friggin bass-ackwards that you're calling a law-abiding citizen willing to protect his/her own life and property from a POS criminal the animal? WTF?

No fear here, got nothing but heat here. You either are a victim or you stand up for yourself. I love my fellow neighbors just as much as the next guy and the gun ensures that their fist will stop where my nose starts.

Plus you can still execute people like they did 100 years ago!
 
No one was killed in this story so it has nothing to do with the value of a human life.

I think they are talking about the attitude of some of the thread's posters claiming that if someone snatched their phone, they would have no problem shooting them dead.*

*Note to all of the readers from other countries: To be fair, most of these posters seem to be from the deep south, and just need a couple of decades to catch up to today. They've come a long way since the lynchings and cross burnings and all that, we just need to suffer fools a little longer and have some patience.

Sorry you didn't see the sarcasm...look at my screen name.

JMB=John Moses BROWNING. The guy who invented my daily carry gun, the 1911.

Bowing, scraping and appeasing our enemies seems to be working well.

Ooooh crap! LOL:p Didn't even notice your screen name and did not catch the sarcasm. My apologies! Guess all we have to fight about is our choice of carry gun... I love 1911s, but I carry a Glock.:D
