I am referring to the comment that a gun/knife fight always ends the same predictable way and that a guy with a machete will end the same way.

Read to the end. There are many other links, but I thought this one most interesting because of the recounting of Sgt. Alvin York’s story.

The perp chose a weapon that is deadly and quiet. It would have been VERY lethal had the home owner not woke up before the perp could use his weapon of choice. The homeowner just got lucky when he did wake up.

Ah! Sgt. Alvin York, reluctant American war hero, all he wanted was a piece of bottom land so that he could marry his Sweetie. Loved the movie and read about the man.

Thank you for the link!
