Did it make the news? When I lived in New Orleans in the 90's a woman who was being carjacked on a freeway entrance with walls on either side of the road backed up very quickly startling the carjacker and then ran him over, twice.
They deserve what they get.
Glad you're ok.

WOW! I'm very glad that you are ok. That was some quick thinking on your part. It's a shame about the grill and window but her's a big thumbs up for reducing the scumbag count my one.

Frosty beverages all around!!!!

Now for the local news to interview his family and friends. Then you'll hear about what a fine fellow he was. Glad you are okay.

He said police declared it self defense, so no witnesses needed, over and done. Killing him was the best thing you could do, no worries about him trying to sue you for his "injuries". Congratulations for performing a public service, I think we should take up a collection to cover any damages your insurance doesn't. By the way IIRC damages from hitting a person is covered under comprhensive coverage with no deductable.

Yea, I'm talking about lawsuits from his family. If a witness says he pulled the gun first, Madathlon is in the clear. Let's just hope that his family leaves it alone...

He had prob seen that on TV where the guy jumps out in front of the car with a gun and the driver just gives up. Not too realistic. I think that if it happened to me that way I would prob take the chance to run over him also. Good job, Jag
