@Terry @LouisConde knives are much more dangerous at melee range than guns are. A stab and a slice will do so much more damage and you'll die a lot faster.
plus, unless your gun is already drawn or you're Jerry fucking Miculek, a motivated assailant with a melee weapon can close 20 feet before you're getting a round on target
@duke @beardalaxy @Terry @LouisConde If not more, if you’re given to “this can’t be happening, he’s probly just tryin’ t’ scare me he won’t stab me he won’t stab me there’s no way he’ll stab me-“
“he didn’t stab me…..there’s no way he really stabbed me”
@WashedOutGundamPilot @Terry @duke @LouisConde yeah if someone is "just trying to scare you" you better be "just trying to scare them" right back with a weapon of your own. Put the fear of God into em, most people don't actually want to die and if you have a weapon as well that's reason enough for someone to back off.
@blaaablaaaa @beardalaxy @Terry @duke @LouisConde They can’t even handle animal death. They euthanize their dog for $1500 at the vet, and they’re allowed to wait in the hall and come in when it’s done.
When I have had sick animals, there’s often been some bleating about “well take it to the vet!” like uh, katherine? How about you go inside for a little while. I have to get the ‘vet’ out from behind the door
Is it supposed to make you feel better if you don't say goodbye because you'd rather facefag in the waiting room? I don't think I could deal with that.
@beardalaxy @Terry @duke @LouisConde Well, yeah, but people are living in fantasy these days. One of the most common things you’ll hear working on an ambulance is “aw man, he really fuckin’ did it! I can’t believe it”. It’s like there’s a mental block, that they’re so unaccustomed to seeing death before their eyes, the avg. yankee just kind of assumes that the same rules of engagement are in effect everywhere.
A lesser form completely runs in the uppermidclass white collars, they’re so accustomed to “well if you get in a fight, you’ll be sued” that a punch to the head upends their entire life and gets them to talk about it for MONTHS.
