Words of a smart man. Unfortunately, some here want confrontation because of a newly issued carry license. Just read all of his posts.First off, anyone who was out and about the last 2 nights in downtown like this is an idiot. Saw this coming a mile away, so I guess the naivity in these videos of the restaurant patrons is pretty stunning.
My 16 yr old daughter was supposed to go to Strong Museum yesterday with a few friends. Squashed that real fast, I'm not letting anyone I like near the downtown area anytime soon. I expect more nonsense tonight, if the rain goes away.
I'd be up and out of there like a flash if this happened. No fist raising, no talk, no negotiating. Gone. I hope to God I never have to use my firearm in self defense, bu we all know the first time a white person is truly in fear for their lives in a situation like this and defends themselves, they'll be labeled a racist white supremacist militia member.

The smart thing to do is just as you say. Avoid contact. Keep your eyes and ears open. The life expectancy of a recon soldier in Vietnam was much higher than a regular grunt. Be the recon soldier.
