This may seem like a fairly obvious and stupid question to ask and I'm pretty sure what most of you folks would do in a situations like this here. This original question was directed towards men, but I just want to prove a point to some self-entitled idiots online so I'm asking the women here as well to get even more like-minded opinions.
Apparently, there are some ahem, "real alphas" who say that a real man and true alpha male will always use the opportunity to run and save his own life, and that "he can always find another woman and make more kids", and I absolutely lost my shit.
I don't know what world these redpillers live in, but this sort of behavior and mindset makes you look like nothing more than a wimp if you aren't even willing to consider laying your life for your spouse and children. Like even if you may get cold feet when actually faced with a situation like this, the need to defend your family would still be the default reaction for most people.
Anyways, let me know what you guys think.
Some mugger aims a gun at you and your family. What will you do?
Hmm, probably get shot and stab the fucker as many times as I can. While telling my family to run. Maybe try to cut the tendons in his gun hand or his throat if the opportunity presents itself.
I've worked as a chef and a butcher, I'm pretty handy with a knife. I've also studied anatomy for first aid.
Unless you're hit in the head or the heart a pistol hit isn't instantly lethal.
I'd rather have a gun myself, but here in Canada honest people aren't allowed. Sigh. Looks like I'm stuck with my swiss army knife lol.
Run my pockets and do what they say. Most muggers would rather not have a murder on their mind. If it seems like they are about to shoot one of us then I buy family time to run and lunge at him just trying to deal damage or get the gun.
Sorry about the vague title but it was only 150 characters so I was forced to keep it short. Basically you and your spouse and kids are walking down a street, spending some quality family time and out of nowhere, this mugger in a mask jumps in the way and aims a gun straight at you, your partner and your kids, telling you guys he's here to kill you. What do you do?
Then if he's within arms reach I would get between the gun and my family and either try to get my hand to block the hammer of the gun if it's a revolver, or I would grab the slide and push it back, taking the gun out of battery. Then I would try to get the gun away from them and subdue them.
@TrueConfection well, I said redpillers because most of these redpill coaches out there are all full of it and are trying to create this army of woman haters, creating false ideologies in the minds of unwary younger men and basically just filling their heads with lies and deplorable bs. They want men to think that women are disposable pieces of trash and that a man should never feel sorry about cheating on his woman or if she happens to die or something. They say that women only exist to birth babies and serve their man. It sometimes confuses me whether these guys are really "alphas" as they say they are or what? Because this sort of behavior comes off as nothing but incel behavior to me instead.
You can't run from a bullet. And as for any self defence argument, you simply don't have time or opportunity to reach for your own weapon if there's a gun pointed. Any act of heroism will likely cause the death of a family member.
If its pointed at my future kids, I’ll push them out the way (or all 3 of us will jump out the way during my push because who tf just stands there to take a bullet). Anyone else, I’m likely hiding behind them or running. I used to tell my mom and sis i’d take a bullet for em but not these days. Every man/woman for themselves unless you're a kid or my kid
The proper thing to do is say here's my wallet and phone I don't want any trouble. Then dude starts to walk away like fucking chumps and then put a hole in the back of his dome as he walks away confidently. Then pick up your wallet and phone and take his wallet.
Holy fuck, the second paragraph had me fucking laughing until I had tears coming out of my eyes. That's like some shit you'd see out of a 1990's comedy sketch.
Grab your chick and throw her at the shooter... grab your kid and use the kid as a body shield as you run away. Maybe I'm just in dark humor mode but that shit has me cracking up right now.
That guy will die. Anyone who points a gun at me or my family, friends, girlfriend forfeited their right to live. I am getting that gun and killing him.
I don't think that I can precisely predict what I'll do.
But: if 'you' go for my loved ones, be prepared for 'total war'. I'm not a super-hero, but I'll find a way to hurt 'you' - unless 'you' get me down first.
I'll try to act calm and reason with them to not shoot anyone but if I have a chance of disarming them then I will go for it. If not I'll ask them what they want and give it to them.
@WhiteBoyChill Lmao I don't blame you. At that moment all we want to do is eliminate the threat and just protect everyone. But to ensure success we must be as level headed as possible.
Depends on what they want. Physical possessions aren’t worth a life. If they want my purse, phone or keys, but I’d take a bullet for my husband or son of push comes to shove.
I’m supposed to say ill do something badass and beat him up or something right
in reality I’ll probably push my wife at him trip my kids grab my dog and run like hell this is the exact reason I always keep the keys to the car ✌️
