SOTG 299 – Fight Back America




Student of the Gun Radio show

Summary: The Professor is back off of the road and has more stories to tell. This time he toured western Tennessee and visited with many of our friends. Also, Paul will share his experience regarding a gas leak at Taco Bell. Seriously. Two Florida men earned themselves the “Go Team” award when they fought back against a man attempting to rob a convenience store. Despite the mountain of evidence that obedient surrender is not a guarantee of safety, we are treated to yet another law enforcement professional giving us the same regurgitated advice about dealing with criminal attack. Listen Louder.

According to ABC News, Two men were at a Coral Gables convenience store about 4:30 a.m. when the robber demanded their money. Jovon Reddick, 32, was arrested by police and officials say he had a loaded gun on him at the time of his arrest. Police say Reddick allegedly told the men, “Get on the ground empty your pockets or I’ll shoot you.” The video shows the two men walking up to Reddick and hitting him with a bottle. After police arrived, Reddick claimed he was “just joking” and had kept the gun in his pocket. Reddick is still in in jail on charges of armed robbery and possessing a weapon while committing an offense."
