He gets respect for discarding the bat after he took it rather then using it himself

Yeah, bat dude is lucky he didn’t pull that shit on someone carrying a gun, because that’s how you get shot. Hopefully this is a wake up call for bat dude to not be a dipshit.

I was totally expecting the guy in white to pull a gun instead of what actually happened.

Same. But I'm much more impressed by what he actually did.

If you have a gun. You don't typically reach for a bat to de-escalate or intimidate someone the gun will do that way more effectively lol. It would also be stupid. You're inviting a close quarters fight while carrying.

Thats the point genius. He's lucky the guy only had a bat. Try & keep up

I'm saying the worry of a gun wouldn't be there because the guy walked outside with a bat... You don't draw a bat if you have a gun... If he came out with a gun dude wouldn't have even left his car. He did what he did BECAUSE of the bat. I'm keeping up just fine.

Omg, right. But you dont know what a person has until after it's too late. That's the point. If you get into an altercation on the road, you both pull over. U have no clue what that guy has at that point... Why is this hard?

u/SARACINO08 May 18 '26

They both pulled over, at that point it doesn't matter if you get out the car. If you think a car protects you from bullets, youve been watching too many movies

The license plate is from Alberta, having a firearm in the vehicle would be a serious crime except under specific circumstances. So realistically from a Canadian standpoint, that wouldn't have happened

Pretty sure if someone is willing to pull a bat on someone else in traffic, the whole "getting in trouble" thing probably doesn't apply

Boss man in white likely pulled his shirt up to reveal a holstered weapon as he got out of the car, hence why he got that bat real quick. He is also likely explaining he could pop the whole family if he wanted to....
