[QUOTE="David2012, post: 1809043, member: 24428"] To non-gun enthusiast who don't know about the zombie fad.. I can see how this guy would have startled people and why so many of them would have run away. But being a old dog with a bad back, gout in his feet, asthma, who walks with a cane & not able to run from anyone... and considering how cartoonish the guy was acting... I think I would have just stood my ground, placed my hand on my weapon and yelled to the guy as he approached me to stop... that I was [U]afraid for my life or of being seriously injured[/U] and that I was going to defend myself if he got any where near me. I'd have raised my walking cane to hold him at arms length... and if he had grabbed it or shoved it aside, then I'd have shot him as many times as it took to stop him. I have a advantage over the average citizen. Most people don't know it.. but if a bad guy so much as jerks the walking cane out of the hand of a person who is on Social Security disability or causes them to trip and fall.. it elevates what would be a misdemeanor assault on a healthy person..... to a felony assault on a disabled person. If the bad guy mentions any thing about my being disabled during the attach.. it can become a federal "hate crime". I don't have to bother trying to prove my disability in court.. the very fact that I'm on SS disability is documentation enough. A person with a documented disability under Social Security has a automatic affirmative defense that they have a serious disability that drastically limits them in a life function and prevents them from being able to physically defend themselves from serious injury or death during a assault. We are technically considered 'wards' of the United States. There is some part of the Disabilities Act and a US Supreme Court Case that deals with this. A person on SS disability can at times use deadly force in a situation where a healthy person would not be able too. [/QUOTE]
