I have spent some time mulling over the events that just happened in Boston and running through scenarios in my mind. I keep coming to one perplexing situation. Knowing me there is NO way I would have opened the cover on that boat had I seen that blood first... Not knowing what may have been pointing at me under that cover or what boobie trap may have been there! And to not have a gun when you opened it even makes me cringe worse. What are your thoughts?

My job is to be here tomorrow for my family. Poking around a possible hiding place during a manhunt, for a possibly injured madman, with the hiding place marked by blood, seems a very, very poor idea.

Now if I was wearing my double ceramic plates like Gecko45 has...

 

[jaxjag]

I would've looked in, but my weapon would've been leading the way.

 

[BugDude]

Call the police and let THEM look in the boat.

Old saying: "curiosity killed the cat." Guy got real lucky. Only 8 left.

 

[boomer77]

I have to go al g with Bug Dude!

 

[Manderinobyebye]

I believe,if i saw blood on my boat,and they were looking for a terrorist,it's time for 911.

 

[KoriBustard]

No.

 

[lionround]

Not a chance.

 

[Rock and Glock]

I thought it showed minimal thinking and minimal brain-power. :yikes:

No comment, other than, it would be handled.

I would've called 911 - I also would have locked/barricaded the doors and covered the boat from 2nd story window with a firearm.

 

[Kutz]

911 & keep watch in condition 1/safety off.

Me too!

Just flash your concealed carry badge and order him to come out with his hands up.:wink:

Good answer.

 

[Kennydale]

I would have called 911.

In an interview with the actual boat owner today he said he did NOT see any blood on the cover of his boat and it wasn't until he had opened the canvas on his boat that he did. THEN when he did see blood on the deck of the boat he levitated to the ground and called 911. The reason he opened the cover was because it was askew a bit and he was checking that out. Seems once again the news was more concerned for sensationalize than accuracy.

Hey finally a reason for one of those BADGES, Now I can order one, never to early to be prepared for the NEXT MISUNDERSTANDING as it will be down played to.

 

[thephanatik]

I have nothing to gain by going near a person known to have explosives on him. There's a reason even with 100 cops around none of them poked their head in.
