(6,324 posts)Take any stick, sit in your car with the window down, have somebody come up and start hitting you- and try to use that stick to stop them.
And now add a new twist- put a gun on your hip. Know that in more than 90% of cases where an offocers gun is taken theu end up killed with it. Have that person start trying to take your gun, so you have to focus your effort first on retaining positive control of your gun so at a minimum your right hand must stay firmly on it.
While doing all that use your left hand to grab a baton and get enough swing on it through a car window to have any effect.
Can you? Try and get back to me.
Here is a hint- for a baton to have any effect it has to be swung with pretty good force- that takes room to swing. With a person up against your car window hitting you how will you swing it from inside the car?
