My buddy has an acqaintance to whom this happened last week:
He is driving home from the casino and sees a car pulled over on the roadside, with the hood up, and a lady standing there looking forlorn. He stops to help. He goes and stands beside the woman looking under the hood, and a man jumps out of the car's backseat with a gun. The rob him of the $4,000.00 in cash he had won that night. Unknown whether the robbers had been watching him win at the casino, and drove ahead of him to establish their ploy, but certainly possible.
How would you prevent and/or handle this, if one is a samaritan who is determined to stop and help people who seem to be stranded and in need of help? Obviously, have a gun. But it makes me think about the need for a super fast draw time (and the lack thereof with "smartcarry" that I use often). He said the guy with a gun was on him almost instantly, pointing it at his head.
