That's commendable, but if someone pulled a knife on me then I would see it as an act intending to kill me & in that situation I would see it as kill or be killed.Originally posted by chasingtheaurora View PostBecause I'm generally a peace-loving person. And didn't want to get done for manslaughter.
If I were able to disarm my assailant then I would certainly follow through and take the consequences.
No doubt his next victim may not be so able to defend himselfHow fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't thinkComment

Well, I didn't see him this morning so perhaps he was at another station.Originally posted by wendigo100 View PostI spotted a train-spotter at Marylebone Station this morning (so I can tick him off in my I-Spy book
).
Anyway, he was wearing camouflage clothing, and I'm still wondering why.
Or dressed up as a brick wall.Comment
