  1. You’re already risking a lot by intervening. Why risk your own safety further if it’s not needed? I know guys that got stabbed and head stomped for trying to break up fights. No need for unnecessary aggression.

  2. Gotta be smart. The guy in black is only alive because those machete bros allowed it. He easily could have become deli slices. If you are against multiple attackers, you better pray your skills are vastly superior to theirs, because you have no margin for error.

  3. I’d hate to see his idea of a bad area.

  4. This is probably considered a slow night.

  5. Reminds me of the donut shop scene in Robocop.

  6. All purses are made in China.

  7. +Student zero, if guns were allowed, they all could have had guns, and it'd e a shootout. Lucky enough only 1 person died: the guy that started it in the first place.

  8. Screw disarming her/him, just run and call the cops. Why was everyone just standing around like it's normal to be walking around with an axe?

  9. +James F, that's not true. States with the loosest gun laws have higher rates of gun violence. Also, gang violence is typically against other gangs; not usually against random people.

  10. A potentially fatal mistake was the guard directed his attention to a possible distant threat and neglected a much closer possible threat. If the perp came in guns blazing, the guard would e a goner.

  11. That lady was wild going up to them like that.

  12. Another smart move was using the gunman's accomplice as a shield.

  13. Good defense against Roy Moore too.

  14. Because insurance will pay for the losses anyway, so it's not worth risking your life for money that's not yours anyway. Also, if their employees or customers get injured or killed, they might be on the hook for lawsuits. And if you are an employee that tries to intervene, you might be on the hook for your own medical bills if you get injured, as the company might point out that you broke protocol. Seriously, does everyone think they are John Wick or something?

  15. Be afraid of gangsters with red flooring.

  16. Most Western outlaws were probably just as goofy as these guys. We won't know because there were no cameras to record it. But legends always get exaggerated.

  17. Michael Mercier because all that stuff is covered by insurance. Much cheaper to lose items to theft than to do all the paperwork for an employee that gets hurt or killed trying to be Dirty Harry.

  18. How many mass knifings do you see?

  19. +LongTallTexan, because of their strict gun laws, they are lucky they only have machetes.

  20. Martin Kiel if a good guy can have a gun, then the bad guys can get them twice as easy. Then we have the OK Corral with amateur shooters and tons on bystanders. Great idea.

  21. If anything there'd be more content. Places with easier access to guns have higher rates of gun incidents.

  22. Dogs in general may be unpredictable, but pit bulls are pretty much built to be weapons and can do a lot more damage than a typical dog. There's a reason when you go to the pound, all you see are pit bulls.

  23. The triggerman is Reverse John Wick.

  24. Looks like the Australian gun ban was for the guns' protection.

  25. paraglidingnut26 Serpenza is anti-chinese propaganda, dude. It’s not nearly as bad as those guys are trying to portray.

  26. The guard was very lucky. He seemed pretty out of shape and he was distracted and almost got caught with his pants down. Good thing the perp wasn't very skilled either.

  27. In that country, dog neuters you!

  28. Of course, the racist comments start coming in.

  29. He kind of did.

  30. As soon as the MAGA guy in green jumped back over the wall into the protesters, he forfeited any self defense argument.

  31. Wow, shame on those 2 other guys that just watched it happen and laughed.

  32. Typically, if robbers just jack your things, the cops won't really bother to investigate, so it's easy money for them. Once they assault or kill someone, then it's a manhunt, and nobody wants that.

  33. You missed the fact that some of those bikers were off duty cops. If shots were fired, that dude and his family would have been Swiss cheese.

  34. Lol at the ad for the Sucker Punch movie under this video.

  35. J Slice that kind of thinking is what makes the US such a Wild West shootout, that hopefully doesn’t get exported elsewhere.

  36. Martin 'The Looter King' not necessarily a flaw; just different.

  37. A bunch of idiots just standing around. Crazy people can move quick. Much quicker than most of those folks.

  38. There was a case of a West Point grad that tried to stop a fight in a nightclub and ended up getting stomped and didn’t survive. Just let them fight and stay out of it.

  39. That captain should be charged for piracy.

  40. +Brett Burgoyne if the man did not interfere, then we don't know what he would have done. But by attacking the perp, you've cornered him into making a rash decision.

  41. I normally don’t side with motorcyclists, but the car was 100% in the wrong here.

  42. Everyone thinks they’ll be John Wick in these situations.

  43. BJJ is only useful if you are the only 2 people around for miles. Otherwise, there's always the risk someone stomps your head. Or a good Samaritan tries to break things up but ends up handicapping you for the other guy.

  44. Damn, those dogs are huge. I definitely would not be petting a pack of those if I saw them roaming the street. Maybe they were retired fighting dogs?

  45. Why do people tuck their gun like that? Easy way to get your weiner shot off.

  46. Bro brought a gun to a knife fight and still lost?
