A good guy with an AR15 rifle stops a deadly attack. I'm glad this guy stepped in, and ended this knife attack.
Dave Thomas witnessed the attack unfolding and knew he had to do something.
“I poked my head out the door. There was a pool of blood, blood was everywhere in the hall. There was still a confrontation going on, there were about three or four people involved at this point,” he recalled to WGN 9.
Thomas said he ran back to his home and grabbed his AR-15 rifle. Moments later, he was ordering the knife-wielding attacker to stop.
And he did.
“I grabbed the AR-15 over my handgun — bigger gun, I think a little more of an intimidation factor. Definitely played a part in him actually stopping,” Thomas added.
Do you even know martial arts.....no. But this is what they teach. Go to an exhibition sometime and see what these black belts can do. It's pretty amazing.
Know the range of a knife? All you have to be is faster than the attacker by a foot when running away

The AR15 is the great equalizer. Just like the guy who killed the three criminals who broke into his home.
lol so is a chainsaw or a snub nose 38 if the person you are going after is armed with a knife, hell for that matter throwing a chair at them works pretty well too
