I have a very good friend that is military reserve, served a couple of tours in active combat zones. In his civilian life he works security, he has told me the company he works for is constantly flushing such types out and sending them packing.truckguy391, 86scotty, nredfor88 and 9 others Thank this. -

I bend over backwards not to bring a gun into a situation even though it's right there.Rideandrepair, Doealex and Cattleman84 Thank this. -
What's the whole story though? If the trucker took a swing at the guard well I can't say I blame the guy for shooting.

Lots more of these truck stops need security guards to babysit drivers. Pretty sad but it's the reality of trucking these days.

I love how everyone is blaming the security guard without knowing what happened...
My guess, and I'll admit it's 100% pulled out of my backside, is that the guard told the driver to move, the driver got physical, either taking a swing or shoving or whatever, and guard shot in what he thought of as self defense.
I mean if it was just the guard walked up and shot the driver, there would have been an arrest made.....autopaint, mpd240, Studebaker Hawk and 6 others Thank this. -
With some of these trigger happy drivers these days maybe the driver had it coming .....welcome to dirty Harry's truckstop .
