So was his.
Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.
History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Sorry, my first instinct would be to pull the shotgun out of the vehicle and talk to him in a loud command voice from a distance.

Re: The Highlander LIVES ! !
Let's see fellow approaches with sword and acting in an aggressive manor. Hmm, says I. Bang, problem solved.

Re: The Highlander LIVES ! !
The guy couldn't handle his sword worth a stuff. Given that the other guy grabbed it by the blade, and didn't come away bleeding profusely leads me to believe it was a cheap Chinese knock off...
Re: The Highlander LIVES ! !
Pretty much nailed it. Had he known how he could have beat the fellow to death with the flat.Ysabel Kid wrote: ↑Tue Feb 13, 2018 9:39 pm The guy couldn't handle his sword worth a stuff.

Re: The Highlander LIVES ! !
A good swordsman can beat you badly with a 3 foot long wooden dowel if they want, and if you are untrained. Of course, a well trained gunman with a gun in hand can be deadly. Pull a sword on me and attack, and you better time it well and know what you are doing. If you make a mistake, I will do my best to capitalize on it. No threat, just a warning. My life is valuable to me, and I plan on preserving it with whatever is handy.

Hmmm... "I took out my phone..." and filmed the confrontation... didn't dial 9-1-1 or otherwise act to preserve the peace...

Actually the fellow that taught me Kali could do it with a considerably shorter stick. He could whip my butt and I had two.

Funny, even if the guy filming didn't have the foresight to carry a gun, he was in a 2,000lb bullet.

Highlander? More like a Low-lifer, he stole the sword from the guy he attacked.
