    I don't want this to turn into a weapon discussion thread, or a discussion that promotes violence. This thread is to tell a real life story that happened to me about an hour ago.

    I was sitting on my bed watching the workaholics episode where Anders bets on high school sports games, while waiting for my dominos pan pizza to show up. I opened up my window so I can hear the dominos car pull up when I heard a loud bang from my backyard. I got up and looked out my window and saw a homeless looking dude walking down my driveway fast. About a week ago my neighbours car got broken into and a bunch of stuff was stolen, and I had a feeling this was the guy who did it.

    I grabbed my vest, duty belt (handcuffs, fixed blade, flashlight) and parang knife, then went through the door to my backyard and saw my gate knocked over (irrelevant to my greasing gate thread). I ran a couple house down and saw the same homeless guy (thief) pulling stuff out of a car. I turned off my flashlight and snuck up behind him and pointed my parang knife at his back saying "Don't move, I'm placing you under arrest". He seemed scared as hell, then I told him to raise his hands while I patted him down for weapons. Then I got him to lay down while I handcuffed his wrists behind his back, and held him down with my knee on his back. The owner of the house came out and I told him to call the police.

    While waiting for the police, dominos pizza delivery guy called me up saying my pizza has arrived. I told him I'm arresting someone right now and to come back later. The Indian guy didn't understand and kept saying "Your pizza isss heeerrrddee" so I hung up. Knee still on the guys back, dominos calls me up again saying the driver is waiting for me. Guy on the line could speak English this time and understood to come back later.

    Cops showed up and had a "what the fuck" look on their face. Imagine showing up to a call and seeing some guy in handcuffs on the ground, and some armoured up civilian dude wielding a parang knife. I tossed the parang aside so they can come closer and see I'm not a threat. I told them what's going on, then they took over and switched handcuffs to theirs. Two more cruisers showed up with a K-9 unit and I took them over to where he knocked over my gate. Then the cop took my info and thanked me, but said for my safety just let them handle the arresting. Then my pizza guy showed up and I bought my pizza. The cop was still standing there, and both the pizza guy and cop had a wtf face. I went back inside, put all my gear back, and now enjoying my cold pizza.

    TLDR: Arrested a thief at knife point, now enjoying pizza,

  3. Cool story (seriously), but i think you should change all instances of "homeless dude" to "thief" or something (minus the one where you're describing who you saw the first time, i.e. "he looked like some homeless dude"). Is he primarily a homeless dude who also just so happens to be a thief? Or is he primarily a thief, who also just so happens to look like a homeless dude? I worry about causing even more stigma to the non-criminal homeless; stigma to thieves, not so much. The issue here is that he was performing criminal actions, not that he was a disadvantaged vagrant (though i suppose homelessness could cause someone to resort to theft).
     
    But seriously, that's such a BAMF thing to do. Way to go. :)

  8. Well done. Lucky the cops didn't try open firing on you since you had a big knife at the time. Cops are trigger happy seems like today.

    no shit. since it wasnt your stuff you were protecting and you were in zero danger you pull that enough times youre going to end up with charges.

    menacing with a weapon and perhaps false imprisonment dont seem at all out of the picture

    (and thats ignoring the fact that a lot of criminals wont hesitate to retaliate since you arent a cop)
     
  12. sounds like some Dwight Shrute behavior
     
  13. What pizza toppings?  I enjoy chicken, bacon, spicy sausage, jalapenos, and pineapple.  
     
     
    Oh and awesome job.  You need a tazer to go with your gear.
     
  14. Not if you know any jiu jitsu

  18. In California, the guy could have pressed charges on you for pulling a knife. Citezen arrest or not. Guard card or not. Lucky for the police you did not have a gun or they would have been investigating YOU.
     
  19. Always proud to see people like this who can take a situation, make it under control and help society at the same time.
    You knew what you needed to do and you delivered!

    Beautiful knives btw!

  20. that's dope as fuck bro, my buddy once scared away a couple of pussies trying to steal from his car.
    we were up on his top floor, and he was looking out his window and he saw 2 teenagers our age plucking through his car like what the fuck.
    and he took out his BB gun and aimed it at them through the window, and he whistled for them to look up,
    and when they saw him with his gun they fucking hauled ass lmfao
    then we went back to toking it talking about how Clint Eastwood that shit was
