I went fishing this weekend with another DTR member, aka Scootin.

We were away from my boat, MS. Runamuk, for no more than 5-8 minutes at a time, 2 times, when someone tried to lift my VHS ship to shore radio!!!

All the parts are still there suggesting that we had somehow interrupted the robbery.

If it was a dire need situation then i would have gladly given them my radio no doubt!!

But this was just plain robbery!! Thank God they did not know that I have 2 fish finders on the Boat that were worth much more than the radio yet inaccesible from the outside(while on the trailer)!!!

I'm still torqued!!! Not only did Scootin out fish me but I almost lost my radio!!!

Thieves just suck!!!

It was self defense, Officer....

 

Oh I love the people on this site.

 

It should, be self defense if someone is stealing you're stuff, think about it. You are protecting yourself. In the case of runamuk he was protecting his boat equipment that helps him catch fish that feeds his family and himself . If he caught them he should be able to beat the thief down on the spot no questions asked. Makes sense to me anyway.

 

I wonder if fish like burglers in the morning?

 

I guess that would be codependant on the fisherman . I guess they just hate anything to do with fishing.

 

He attacked me when I tried to apprehend him. I am a fully trained self defense intructor. I was just using the continuum of force, Officer.
I'm sorry, can you repeat that Officer?
What? He can't speak because he is dead?
I was in fear of my life. I am truly sorry. If he wasn't a scumbag, none of this wouldn't have happened. Now I am going to have nightmares the rest of my life. I am so distraught with disposing of this scumbag from society. I think I will sue his parents for their inability to raise a pillar of society. Everyone knows it is the parent's fault for the way their kids end up. LOL.

 

"I fired a warning shot, but my aim was off and it hit him between the eyes......My Bad"

 

One of my dogs caught a thief one night in my grandpa's yard... by the time that we got outside (0200) he was in a tree missing most of his pants and some skin. Pop 'thought' it was a coon or something, so he sent some rock salt up the tree via 10 ga. We were so suprised when a man fell out of the tree that pop accidentally squeezed off another round. (whoops!!) That was goooood to me.

 

That's an awesome story, Madhat! LOL.

Shovelhead- the first warning shot, he will say, "You shot me!" Lol.

 

3 Words (particuarlly in CO)....
