Fair point!

Yesterday I interrupted a violent robbery. And got lucky too...No gun tho.

Two kids, id guess 13 and 15, jumped a Latino man on his scooter. Pushed him off it. I was 50 ft away w my pit bull taking a walk In a big east coast city. The kids were wearing gym like clothes, looked like no weapons. One was 6ft one was maybe 5ft. They looked like they weighed 90lbs each.

The Latino they jumped was maybe 5ft, poor responsiveness. Was sluggish....maybe drunk, high, or stunned?

I just raised my voice and walked towards them saying, " whats up kids, you got a problem?" And made direct eye contact.

It was a bluff, while I can fight im not going to get closer than 50 ft w my dog. You dont fight when you have your kid or pet with you.

Kids were stunned, i surprised them....and they ran off. Im a big guy 6ft, 258lbs, train in Muay Thai and strength training 6 days a week. That just makes me confident, street fights are risky and stupid. Plus im over the hill + I dont wanna hurt no one. Especially our kids.

I got lucky because no one got hurt. Me included.

Victims name was Eduardo, barely spoke a lick of English. Weird day.
