It Pays To Run Away From A Gun Fight

James was a man of peace and all through his childhood he eschewed violence and will always work away from a fight even if it is justified.

Then a day came when he needed to be a man for once and thus day was on the 28th of August in the year 2011, he has just closed from work and needed a break he drove hiS car and parked in the parking lot the time 9:37pm a place regarded as law enforcement as a dark spot .But the night life here is great the bar is called "The Good Merchant a very"it's patrons are people from all works of life and very vibrant at night. Here you get to see the "good" ,the "bad" and the "ugly" all in one bunch.

HiS car was parked facing the alternative exit, a very dark area around boulevard avenue,Kingston street. A lady was taking a stroll round the bend when two male accosted her and one with a very huge physical pointed a gun at her and the other black male pinned her to the wall. It seems they weren't interested in her personal effect like money or jewelry on her neck, from the look of things a question was being posed to her and she was in shock.

James observes this drama from the comfort of his car, as it is normal with humans he was skeptical about involving himself being a person that avoid issues, but there was this consciousness about him thus evening he felt it was his responsibility to protect this lady under duress.
He came down from his car are walked towards the men towering over the frightened lady and ask if there was an issue .Between a twinkle if an eye James was fined down at close range with a Smith and Wesson pistol, his personal effect and his car was stolen.

Fortunately 12 hours saw James battling with his life in an in intensive care unit. James will further under brain surgery and it will take him months to recover, this bears to mind that James would have called 911 and perhaps waited for the law to arrive. From my perspective it is insane to accosted men wielding guns as most victims are also accomplices to crimes .

Sometimes it pays to runs away from a fight,fights that can not be won facing a bullet is never the best option .

Very well told its like looking at the perspective of a chess game as an observer and thinking of the moves that could've been made.

Very true a wrong me can end the game,just like that.

It is better to be save than sorry.
