    If that's part of tuckers argument, then it should be cited or the assumption will be made that tucker is solely talking about the original post.

    The bottom line is, if I feel that my life is in danger, I'm probably going to defend myself including, up to & most probably, pulling the trigger.

    So, if I am in my sleeper & I hear my glass being broke out, all commotion breaking loose & I dont here the word "POLICE", I'm probably thinking some mad man is breaking in my truck for any amount of reasons you can think of including, on drugs, just flat out crazy, robbery or is going to cause me bodily harm including possibly killing me, I aint gonna wait around to find out. If he is busting out my windows etc, he probably ain't there collecting for the Red Cross. He's probably gonna get shot or at least, shot at.
    If he is busting out my windows, I'm feeling my life is in immediate danger.

    That's the bottom line.
     
    Blackshack46 and 06driver Thank this.

    It was never this bad...

    Thank you mega fleets and CDL mills for turning this industry into a steering wheel holder circus..
    If you can release the brakes and push the D button you have a job in trucking.

    I carry 7 tools. The only weapon you possess is your mind. But yes they know I have those tools.
