Wait, wait wait, wait....what happened to \"not my job to get involved\"?
Again, you dont who the players are, who is the bad guy and who is doing what. This could easily be an u/c narc trying to subdue a crackchic w a knife. So, why now would anyone choose to \'be there'for another human? If you\'re wondering what I mean, check out the post \'Liquor Store\'. Probably \'cause there is time, distance, and ready escape. I can dig that. My answere would be much the same as earlier posts. Make pulling over very obvious, call 911 or vhp and report. Then, slowly drive by with the cell in plain view, cab light on. And I suppose, drive off. Now, just like the Liquor Store, the longer you stay, the better the chance of being involved, but the better the chance he ceases his attack, if he is a bg. If she exits the vehicle, where do you think she\'s gonna go? Right, directly to the vehicle parked behind them-yours. If he chooses to follow, now he\'s in your face. So, here we are again. Do we stay in an effort to de escelate the violence tho we dont know who\'s who? Or do we mind our own business and look out for #1? I think the middle ground is to stop, get plates and model, call it in and leave.
This is one I have seen, tho I was on foot in a parking lot. Stopped about 4'rear driver\'s side of the car, looked at sideview mirror while on cell. When dude looked in the mirror, he let her go. She runs behing me, so I tell her get in the store we are at the front of. I also tell the clerk on smoke break to go inside and call the S.O., loudly. Dude drives off, I go inside an tell our \'victim'to stay with the clerk untill a dep arrives. I skate as I see the guy\'s car headed north on the highway at a great rate of speed. Figure if I leave, the dep has one less person to interview.

Great scenario, Scott. Thanks for the follow up. You guys really get me thinking, thanks. What I\'m most impressed with on this site in particular, is the fact nobody seems to be in any big hurry to shoot a bg. Man, some forums have dudes ready to draw down if the nieghbor\'s terrier poohs in thier yard. Everyone here seems very realistic and very aware of potential consequences of the firearm they tote. Great bunch. The more intelligent folks out there, the better off this country is gonna be.
Even when we disagree, it is in a civil, intelligent manner. And, as in Liquor Store, others'logic was superior to mine and by presenting it in the manner they did, won me over.
You guys (and gals) are great. Keep it up.

Dan
