today we get to see one of the most
chaotic armed robbery attempts i've ever
seen
hi friends welcome to today's lesson
here at active self protection i'm your
host john korea today's video comes to
us from the atlanta area dekalb county

pandemic given us great education via

ballistic testing as well go and check
them out and find great ammo ready to
ship at good prices the new story that
said there are two groups here that's
how they identify them the primary group
is actually behind the pump right now
but as the action starts you can see our
dude open carrying a glock in his pocket
with a stendo or some kind of gun dude
comes up behind him tries to steal it so
he draws his gun and now starts a gun
battle with them and you notice there
are several of them and
they said a group in the news story i
only see our dude in the green shirt as
the other side here but apparently he's
got somebody else that also is firing
with him and they are going to to let
something like a hundred rounds fly
between them and you can see the other
guys using the cover of the vehicles now
watch as our our dude here who had the
gun grab he kind of runs off a little
bit he's come came in that black uh
dodge right there see the other
bystanders trying to figure out how to
get out of there now watch the one in
who was in the passenger seat in the
white car she gets in the driver's seat
she runs off our dude here who pulled
the gun and had the gunfight he drives
off police have arrested two people in
this particular case because all of this
crossfire actually uh there was a 28
year old man in a uh you know in his car
with his girlfriend and his daughter and
he was fatally struck by gunfire in this
one police have arrested a 14 year old
and a 22 year old in connection with it
and they are of course facing murder
charges for this oh man hate to see
outcomes like this but it does make us
think about making sure that we use our
force judiciously let's get to the
lessons so i don't know the background
on the two groups if this was you know
illegal activity related or family
related or whatever the news stories
have not given us that information but i
will say that one of them at least is
open carrying kind of a gun with an
extended magazine and he's just got it
stuck in his pocket and so when you do
that kind of stuff you might think oh
that deters bad guys from getting after
me the fact is it just doesn't
especially the ones that you actually
have to worry about which he didn't hear
secondarily for all of the bystanders if
you are rolling in someplace and you see
a guy like this who has a big you know
stendo gun stuck in his pocket that is a
marker to you that stupid people are
about and stupid things are about to
happen and you have violated too many
rules of stupid and it is time right now
to get out of the danger zone 100 right
now that is a marker of that now for our
dude here who thinks open carry is going
to deter you know anybody from getting
after him notice he's not paying
attention to his world and because he's
not paying attention to his world this
dude's gonna be able to come up right
behind him and try to jack his stuff so
for all of us make sure that you pay
attention in your world now i don't know
if he decided in that moment oh hey free
gun and i'm just gonna go steal that
from somebody i've got a previous beef
with or if you just saw it as a valuable
item that he can steal off this guy and
if i can join it off him then i can run
off and nothing he's going to do because
i got his gun and go from there but if
you're not paying attention in your
world then then that open carry does you
no good whatsoever this is a reason that
i as a you know i prefer concealed carry
because then they don't know it's there
and it might have avoided this problem
entirely now notice here now he has to
fend off a gun grab i think that he kind
of thought maybe that dude was going to
do this which is why he reacted so
quickly so he covered that gun and he's
actually going to turn the correct
direction
away from the gun and get his gun back
and out so i think he might have kind of
seen at the last second or been thinking
he might have done that i think that was
probably a mistake in his better bet if
he saw that guy and knew that he might
do that is to turn and face him and deal
with the conflict directly rather than
try to fend off a gun grab of a gun out
of your pocket
okay fine now the gun fight really
starts dude runs off and now our guy's
got to chamber his gun and now he's
going to work and recognize he is now
chasing in on a guy who has drawn his
own gun and is getting after you on that
this kind of stuff is stupid if if our
dude in green had not done that and not
gone after these guys and had a
basically a big running gun battle i
would have said hey you know what he's
our victim but the fact of the matter is
you know again there's apparently beef
and history between these guys and so
this feels to me like a very personal
thing and and of course morally
reprehensible to do that kind of stuff
you see the bullets flying already and
they're not showing any kind of skill
this is not defensive gun fighting
standing there and hopping around
winging bullets off you know over the
top of your head like this and just
winging bullets towards guys who are you
know uh playing uh you know whack-a-mole
otherwise this is not what good saints
sober moral and prudent people do
so we got some things to think about
from the bystanders perspective here as
well as you notice that in the white car
here this gal is trying to get out i
think she does a pretty good thing here
i think that's a lady when she's getting
in front of you know or behind the wheel
well and the engine block that'll
actually stop bullets and that's a
pretty good thing better bet even than
that get in the car get in the driver's
seat if the keys are in it and be gone
and she does a pretty darn good job of
that now of course the big tragedy in
this whole thing is that an innocent 28
year old man who has a one-year-old
daughter and a full life ahead of him
lost his life in this and and that's a
reminder friends that you never know
even though he wasn't the the intended
victim of violent crime he was the
victim of violent crime so make sure
that you've practiced spiritual fitness
that you say everything you need to say
to your loved ones every day you solve
every conflict that you can they know
that you love them because you may not
get another opportunity to do it and
make sure your relationship with jesus
is strong because you will need it on
that day and you may not have an
opportunity to get it this one's a big
hot mess let's learn the lessons to
better cover our asp
