Maps of killings
In Orlando we have Homicides shown in the current year, by little wee flags, on a map.
Most around Orange Blossom Trail, lots of prostitution, ditto drugs, and places that are stamped "Not a good place to live" the Hood, more than one of them.
In my own case, after being in the US of A, living, for 5 years, I chased a person off my path, in front of my front door at 4-42 AM, with a Surefire flashlight, and a 9mm Glock, a few weeks ago. He caused an alarm to go off on a vehicle in the street, headed into my dark little path to get off the street, till my motion detector lights lit him up. Not even sure he saw the Glock, I had just hit him in the eyes with a lot of light.
He was still hidden from the street, but not from my window.
In the many years I have traveled in the US, prior to moving here, two other times I pointed guns at people, no shots fired ever, in the States.
So in my history the pointing saved my bacon twice, and once it was a "Go away" device. Once I hit a person, at that time I was carrying a G19, but it was not a gun call. In Dayton Ohio. All that since 1968.
So the carrying of a pistol, not the firing of it, was the key in my case.
In the both cases of pointing I was in big trouble physically, if I had not been armed, plus in the old days it was sometimes a LW Commander in .45, like looking down a drain pipe, frame polished, muzzle polished, like glass, frame after market black finish. First incident Rochester, coming in to a Hotel parking lot, from a Bullseye Match, second time in Detroit, I had stopped at a Stop Sign, very lost. "Am I right for the I 75?" 4" of window open, arm on it's way in, then OUT! even a High Power in 9mm still has an impressive muzzle. Quickest draw under right thigh, no holster.
The macho guys at the training program I was going to, said I should have shot him? No ear muffs? no reason? Do not pass go. I could see him sprawled across his little case in his nice suit! I wonder how many of the point a gun and not shoot there are? I have three.
