I am amazed how quickly people judge without ALL the facts. It is easy to criticize with the 20-20 clarity that hindsight brings. Perhaps, afterward, it was discovered he had no weapon on him, but she could not have known that at the time. I added my $.02 to the feedback page. Let her be judged by the facts and not the court of public opinion.

This was on the news while I was getting my haircut this afternoon . With the exception of one oddball the general opinion of the barbershop was that he got what he deserved. I am suprised she didnt "bump" the motorcycle out of the way.

Good for her.. If we read more of this in the paper or saw it on the news , these dirt bags might think before they try to attack a woman..

Great Post Annie.

BTW, people should also "rate" those posts! You can approve of disagree with each of the comments left by people. I encourage everyone to support the pro-gun posts and disapprove the anti-gun posts. It will send a message to the editorial writers at the station to let them know what real people (not sheeple) think about self-defense.

Dirt bags . . . JMO, but the way I understood the post is that it was referring to aggressive men who attack women. I didn't see it as being aimed specifically at 'bikers' but more at men who exhibit road rage.

Good for her, the biker would be alive if he didnt try to confront the woman.

Unless his status has changed....he's still alive.

But I agree with the sentiment. Maybe he'll think twice before being so confrontational again.

Perhaps... that's why I asked for clarification.

What absolutely terrifies me is that there seems to be a certain percentage of people who wish or celebrate death on another human being when they have such little information of the facts of what actually occurred.

Fortunately the vast majority of the people here aren't in that number but some clearly are.

And BTW the woman was not attacked, just approached. Again... we have such little information here.

I ride and I carry and while I don't jump off my bike to confront anyone, I'll let some idiot who's too busy yakking on their cell to pay attention to driving know when they cut me off or pull out in front of me by blasting them with my obnoxious air-horns. I don't want to die because people can't hang-up and/or wake-up and drive.

Sounds like maybe (past posts included) there might be a handful of nut-jobs around here who don't need much more of of an excuse to start poppin' caps. Or at least that's what they spout-off as they sit behind their keyboard and monitor.
