Had a guy come up when the wifey was getting into the car after a dinner out. I had my son and was putting him im his car seat
The gentlemen in question approached my wife while I was on the other side of the car. He was rambling on about some sob story about needing cash. Weird thing was he wouldn't let me get in a word. Learned afterward that this is a tactic for some beggars. Anyway as he was walking up I got my son into the car and slid around to put myself between him and my wife. Finally I had enough of his speech and said "I have no cash and you're threatening me" . He got startled and ran off. I had no idea what else to do other than prepare for a physical altercation. Called the police and they took a statement. Realized then that I needed a firearm.
