That’s when ya go back the next day with something that’ll reach out and touch someone and give their boat motor a love tap... lmao
His first time, it was Cody. He just left it alone. I'll go up there when I feel like it and if I encounter trouble I'll deal with it in a legal manor. It is a state road, and brandishing a firearm is a felony. No different than stopping people on I77 and demanding they don't pass.
They launched from a hunt club landing just outside of the state forest that's owned by the decendents of "The admiral" Judge Hill of the county I live in. Rumor has it they man drive deer out of season so their (they as in some very wealthy and crooked people) knowledge of the natural geography, the game cameras, and their recources to comb the land thorougly would be an immediate death sentence without proper burial unless you consider a warm Natty light poured over my dead body proper but I don't like cheap beer really. .. I'm not that vengeful. Also the fact they drew high powered rifles from a boat showed a disregard for law.
Very valid points! Better solution make a game warden your buddy and have him on look out while you trek back into their area then roll up in that waterway like you own the bitch and toss a line out with warden posted up watching the ignorance go down!!
In all seriousness tho if they pointed a firearm in your direction then I probably would have been shot that day bc that’s no game or intimidation tactic in my world and instincts I would have probably drawn and started firing high powered weapons or not that’s bs to be drawn on to scare someone from a area!
They already know me on a first name basis across Richland, Fairfield, Sumter and Kershaw counties. To them I'm young Mr Reed that always picks up trash when I see it, always has paddle/jacket/whistle on board and spends more time on the water than they do. Perhaps it's because of understaffing or maybe it's just them not caring, but their job is to generate funding for state by simply hanging out at boat landings and writing citations for anything they can. To take a 4 hr round trip boat ride down, up and through three River systems and several uncharted creeks strown across multiple counties with a boat and officers that aren't cut out to travel nearly as far as I can, just to write a warning ticket to a members of a hunt club that probably go golfing with their boss is laughable unfortunately. It's corrupt as hell.
I get your stance on this. However its best to know when to bow out. I don't gamble, much less risk my life over a sudden test of my priciples. And like the swamp incident the world hasn't changed much evil men still do cowardly, sneaky evil things. Know your enemy and his numbers.Very valid points! Better solution make a game warden your buddy and have him on look out while you trek back into their area then roll up in that waterway like you own the bitch and toss a line out with warden posted up watching the ignorance go down!!
Its not against the law in NC to brandish a firearm. If you point it at somebody then its a crime of "Assault by pointing a gun." Its a misdemeanor.
"I feared for my life.
And it's not a show of force at that point. Which is exacy where your coming from.
Not the one in orange.
