Saturday we went to a local wheeling event at a farm with my best friends truck we built. This place attracts all sorts of people, meth heads, cranksters, etc.
Well one of the people that normally attends these events had problems with a few people poking fun at him on FB. (Everyone in the wheeling community BSs with each other, its part of the fun!)
Last time it happened this guy threatened my life multiple times on fb (and i have screen shots).
Well we get to this farm on sat morning, offload the truck and head over where everyone is and start seeing how everyones mornings going. But, this guy, is over working on his truck he already broke. Well I guess he saw us laughing and having a good time and comes running over.
Me being aware without letting others know I see him coming from the corner of my eye with a hammer and a drift pin wrench. He gets close enough to kiss me and is screaming at me things I couldnt even comprehend. Rips my shirt with the hammer and has the drift pin in other hand. He raised the hammer before he dropped it and during this time I had pulled my knife and held it behind my back semi opened.
His wife, seeing this, now runs between us and tries to break it up. Of course he now tries to push through her. Mean while i was keeping composure waiting to react, sort of laughing at the situation in front of him.
After his wife says I have a knife he backs off and picks back up his weapons.
Truly, the way this guy came at me if i had been carrying it would have been premise, at least in DE, to possibly stop him in his tracks.
I was not going to act with the knife unless my life depended on it. And a swinging hammer toward my head and drift pin toward my body, to me, would have been enough. (even though jersey might not see fit, Id have to die and come back before id be allowed to ever do that)
Edit: this is a 50 year old man who use to live with my uncle (who died of a heroine OD).
