I would love to hear from some attorneys on all this talk about if your allowed to carry hand gun. I know each states laws are different and in Tx your allowed to defend your personally properity with deadly force (correct me if I'm wrong) but say for instance you gave up your keys and then blew the guys head off as he was driving away. Wouldn't you be charged with murder if that person did not shoot at you 1st and you returned the fire in self defense? Once again depending on what state you live in.
I wish that law was the same in NC but we're only allowed to protect ourselves if our lives are in danger.... not property.
WoW Glad you are ok. I did not know there was a little sleepy place in CA.
He would have had my keys in a heart beat. Geico will not cover my being shot.
That's it!!!
But of course, would have shot him if I got the chance...Better to get a good description of him and the car and let the cops do something besides write tickets......

I think the first thing you say to the law when they show up after is "I felt like I was in mortal danger and he was going to kill me anyway" - then you probably wouldn't be charged with anything, even if you got lucky and killed the bastard - I would hope not anyway....
I hope you have called the cops and filed a report anyway. These guys should be arrested for attempted armed robbery...and probably a few other things...
glad u got away with your life...thats serious business..maybe i'm paranoid but i try 2 keep my eyes open 4 that everyday...even though i live in a pretty nice area i know it can happen anywhere because morons migrate...growing up in various parts of los angeles made me a little paranoid because of some of the things i saw...so i dont trust anybody,anywhere in any neighborhood...glad you're ok...
