In my short time carrying a handgun (14 years), I have only had to use it in self defense once. I was on a payphone....remember those. There was another payphone about 10-12 yards away from the one I was on. This numbnuts guy was clearly drunk and on the other phone yelling at someone. He kept looking over at me and telling me that he was on a personal phone call and to get the fu*k away. I shrugged it off because I knew it was what ever chemical he had ingested talking. I heard him say "Hold on a damn minute" to whoever he was talking to. He then left the phone dangling and started walking my way in a very aggressive manner. He took maybe two steps and I saw him slide a knife that was on a pocket clip out and flung it open. He was about to say something when he found himself looking down the barrel of a Glock 17. I didnt say anything. He could tell in my eyes that I would not hesitate to defend myself. Without taking his eyes off me he flipped the blade shut and walked off quickly. He didnt even finish his phone call. I finished my phone call and started driving home. When it happened I was very calm and collected but when I was driving home my foot kept bouncing and shaking almost to the point I had to pull over. I guess I just kept thinking that I almost had to shoot someone.
