Ditto. I like to look people in the eye.
No reason to second guess yourself on this one. I have done the same thing myself on two occasions in the past.
Enjoy the day with your family.

You did the right thing. At a traffic stop I always leave enough space between me and the vehicle in front in case I need to evade. It's never happened, but I have the option. Call me a pessimist, but after getting screwed over by people by me being a Good Samaritan, I treat everyone I don't know as if they have AIDS.

It was a reference to a spoof self defense video...
...I'll go now.
Just call me 47
If I had been in your shoes, my heart would have been pounding pretty fast. I don't know that a gun would have helped the situation. Good job on making the right choice! Have a wonderful holiday.

So, Ray, that was you. Thanks a lot for the help. While rushing the wife to the hospital, that unexpectantly went into labor, my car blew a tire and went into a ditch & got stuck.
I wasn't prepared for the weather due to the emergency, so I pulled my hood up and put my hands in the front pockets to stay warm.
When I saw a pick up pull up to the traffic signal, I ran up to it shouting "call an ambulance, my wife is having a baby ! "
But as I got close, the pick up roared off through a red signal nearly running my toes over........
Just joking Ray,. You don't need a CCW to have a handgun in your car for self protection.

My T.P. wheeling and dealing feedback is here.

This is why my secondary is a 380 that while I don't want stolen, it wouldn't be the end of my world either.
CCW is obviously your best bet. You don't want the your weapon in the car when some POS tries to steal your Air Jordan's in the parking lot.
Go take a SouthNarc class.
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

My Feedback
Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
Yes.
Obviously not a golfer.
