2 Truckers & Car Driver Shot in Dallas

better stop and put your flak jacket on.

 

Ok...think about this.

Your glass is being shattered and bullets are hitting you. If you see where it is comming from, why not take out that pickup? Who needs a gun when you have a 70,000 lb weapon under your fingers? Crush that idiot. I know it has to be scary, but if it was me, I'm taking that guy down with me.

 

i hear ya....and it would definatly cross the mind once i stopped ########, i guess it would depend on where my 48ft. trailer was gonna go and if inoccent people got unesecarilly involved.
........someone is gonna say, "you don't know what you'd do"
which is true, but oddly enuff it never hurts to think things thru, an idea is better then nothing.

 

I tell ya what, if someone was beside me and pulled a gun out they would get slammed without hesistation. I would guard rail them.

A red smear on a concrete wall won't shoot at you.

My fear lies with a sniper who hangs out on an overpass and picks people off. Nothing you can do but duck or maybe weave. Doing both might be bad.

 

They are learning more about the shooter. Has 5 kids and lives in nice area of Keller, TX. Neighbors all say he and whole family were great folks. Took walks and talked to everyone. Evidently he was rear ended in patrol car some time back in Utah. Got hooked on booze and Oxicontin for pain. Resigned in spring. Was accused of robbing pharmacy and garland, Tx police were looking for him. Sure hear about a bunch of people getting hooked on that drug. Must be really hard to kick. Just too bad he didn't get help. Truckers and others shouldn't have wound up dead.

 

they need to ban or be more careful with prescribing that junk!! my friends brother died from an OD on it.

 

Well...least you won't have to worry about that shooter when ya get down here!

...Just steer-clear of all the illegals! They don't carry insurance or drivers licens...And God help you if there is anything that looks like it could be Ice on the roads!

 

I dont know this might be the wrong place but does anyone know where one could send something to the family.For him to have been shot and still pull over and not hurt nobody that says he was a true hero in my book just thought might help is family to hear that this time of year.

 

Iknow it said he was about to fly home.
