Yeah, there is a youtube video from a mall security that shows adults jumping out of a van, grabbing a girl and forcing her into their vehicle. Then you find out it was parents grabbing their runnaway daughter. Thus the OODA loop... you observe, prepare to act and reset the loop as new info is gathered.

This is Brownwood....we only have ONE part of town! And this the only Kroger Store, and it on one of the main drags.
Brownwood still exists in the time when someone could say "I'm going to the store," and nobody needs to ask "Which one?"

Winston Churchill advised, "One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half."
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

I wager that tactic works quite well with a tommygun.
