Bringing a tire iron to a gun fight. He would have some tough odds.
ORIGINAL: MTBlood

I hear you guys abut the dangers too. I thought about the road rage incident in Jeffersonville last month, that's so popular on here. Him being out of state, I would have doubted a gun, but could of seen a tire iron or the equivalent.

Happened to me twice in the last few weeks. One guy hit my foot in traffic when I stopped.. The guy who hit me drives a London black taxi so there will be big implications for him in terms of his license and insurance.
Some cagers seem to get off on trying to intimidate bikers by driving right on their fender.

If he was from SC, he likely had a gun. Most of us do, regardless of CCW reciprocity.

The obvious is that the site ain't totally up and running. Gotta post fast and not long. But compared to the other forums, this place still has more posts to contribute.

Being from SC explains it all. Tailgating is a sport down here.

If the guy had a CHL odds are he wouldn't have been a problem in the first place. Most folks that jump through the hoops to get licensed to carry are usually level headed.
