Scenario:  You are walking out of a restaurant by yourself. You see a guy try and sneak up on you in the dark parking lot.  No one else is around.  He pulls a knife and right before he lunges at you, you deflect his knife-hand and you strike him in the face with a heavy, steel pen you happen to have in your hand.  Then, you are able to wrestle the knife away from him and stab him repeatedly with it until he falls to the ground.  Do you call the cops? Do you call an ambulance and try to help the guy.  Or, simply get in your car and leave?

Part II: Same scenario.  But, realizing that the Thug was going to hurt you to take your stuff, do you 1) just leave; 2) take his knife, his wallet and any money he has on him - with the intention of donating it to some charity; or 3) take any valuables he has as "reparations" for his offense against you?

Part III: Same scenario, but the guy's clearly dead, and assuming that you didn't call the cops, do you: 1) leave the body where it is; 2) take the body and dump it in a swamp somewhere; or 3) cut out the organs and try to sell them to a Chinese organ dealer?
 
We all know what the law requires, and any response should start with "I would do whatever the law requires, but morally, I would ......"

One time, my girlfriend's car crapped out on us in a parking lot late at night in a bad area of town (we went to go see some play at a downtown theater).  A Black guy did try to sneak up on me while I had the hood up and was trying to quickly replace a burst radiator hose (got a ride back home to get the hose and drove back to where the broken car was - girlfriend had to be with me to drive that car home).  I was using a fairly long screwdriver to screw down the stainless steel hose clamps.  My girlfriend was inside the vehicle.  I waited......waited.......waited until the guy was right up on me. I quickly turned around with the long screwdriver in my hand right at his gut and I said "move one inch closer, and I'll gut you like a pig".  I didn't have to - he walked away yelling "racist....racist....bla bla bla racist".  I never even said the "N" word. 

But, if I had to kill the guy, I would have just got the F- out of there.

Everything with internet "tough guy" Skanny

is grounded in violence, bloodlust, conflict.

Id hate to see what growing up was  like for Lil Skanny.

Call the cops and discuss why the .45  I shot the negro with is superior to his 9mm.
