Michael Bane I owe you a big thanks
« on: June 27, 2008, 12:00:34 AM »
While the thanks comes mainly because of an episode of Shooting Gallery that dealt with selfdefense against a knife attack.

It had been a while since I had a self-defense class and it was a good refresher and reminder on defending against an attack.  This past weekend I had a friend that tried to commit suicide several times.  I spent about two hours keeping and taking knives away from her until I could get help to arrive.  Thanks to the show and your commitment of bringing the very best information to your viewers she made it through the weekend.  It still may be a long road to get her back to normal, but because of you she is still alive.   Thank you

Wow DR, thats a crappy way to spend your weekend. :( when she gets her problems worked out she owes you a BIG one. Darn few things if any make it worth giving up on sunrises / sunsets and the other things in life, but sometimes the view is differant from INSIDE our problems. She's lucky to have a freind like you.

Ordinary people taking action when extraordinary things occur = Hero
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington

Well, I didn't do anything that anyone else would do, but my Mom taught me to say please and thank you to those that help...and Michael and his production company helped.
