See who's making a name for himself protecting Atlanta mall from threats
America’s toughest mall cop is back. Fighting yet another black mob.
The last time we saw Darrien Long in February, he was confronting an abusive and violent black mob at a downtown Atlanta shopping center.
They threatened, cussed, assaulted, spit, challenged and called Long every racial and sexual epithet imaginable.
Long kept his cool. Then even as he pulled out his Taser and one of his attackers went down, a video of the confrontation went up.
And Long became a hero.
“Do what you are supposed to do,” he told WSB-TV, “or get what’s coming to you.”
Now Long is back, with another confrontation. This time the crowd is bigger. The stakes are higher. But the outcome is the same.
It’s called the Knockout Game and it’s been taking lives across America. See what happened when it played out in New London, Conn.
Against long odds, the good guy prevails.
The video begins with Long confronting a man loitering outside the Atlanta Mall where Long serves as property manager. The man did not want to leave. He became abusive.
With the loiterer’s friends looking on, the man jostles Long. Sudden the man is seen stumbling and flying 20 feet in the reverse direction.
Long had just punched him. And everything was captured on the video camera he wears on his chest. Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2013/03/taser-armed-security-guard-chases-black-mobs/#KP5vdJ1VPbtgrPtp.99

And when stopping in traffic, always allow 1/2 a car

Definitely...had that one in there but was ‘running long’ etc.
I am on the road a lot and often in neighborhoods I really don’t ‘belong’ in - be in the ‘wrong’ neighborhood in a city and the cops will either harass or ignore you.
My driving is 100% defensive, from constantly checking mirrors while moving, being well aware of surroundings in Urban areas, if at all possible leave enough room to pull into other lane or on sidewalk if necessary...if making left and there is an island kind of ‘cock’ your wheels a bit to make it an easy transition over it if necessary.
Keep doors locked and if you need to open a window, just crack it a couple of inches. Never leave unlocked on the street or parking structure etc...
Stay alert....don’t know where I got all this ‘stuff’ from, probably a compilation of several scenarios....
When approaching an intersection have a ‘bailot’ plan and always have an alternate route to go....
Be surprised how many people out there have lived in the same neighborhood, had same route to work or whatever and if the main street home is ‘blocked’, they have no clue how to get home...
But I am the type (due to business mostly) that can be sitting in VA and get a call for a job to MA, hop in my vehicle and ‘the game is on’.
While I know and know of people who are going 10-20 miles from the house and have to ‘pack a lunch’ etc.....
SBSD?
“You could visit the mall and find out for yourself”
A poor idea. I have not been to downtown Atlanta for 15 years its too dangerous. I never plan to go there again for any reason. The last time I was there (15 yrs ago) I was bargaining with Jesus all the way back to my car to just let me get out alive and I would never come back again. I don’t even go to Lennox Mall in Buckhead anymore.
Urban Atlanta’s leadership is getting panicky about the suburbs severing themselves from “the social contract”.
Dang. Someone needs to get those boys to a church STAT!
Pretty much too late at this point as Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Peachtree Corners and Johns Creek have already broken off. If you move into Fulton County all you are doing is feeding the Atlanta Beast.
To me, anyone using the words “social contract”
is wanting to forcibly tie my lifeboat to their sinking ship.
I have seen a couple of videos from this “Metro Mall” in Atlanta. I am surprised that any business can be conducted in such an environment.
And I find it disconcerting that the clientele contains a significant percentage of “people” that seem little evolved over what one would find roaming in jungles. In fact, I suspect jungle animals would actually be somewhat more pragmatic in their approach to social scenarios, innately sensing that they do not have “free” healthcare upon which to rely when confrontation results in injury.
Given the preponderance of uncivilized behavior concentrated in urban areas, the likelihood that I will allow a Federal enabler of such behavior to disarm me is exactly nil.
And yes, the security guard does have a firearm. He used the taser first, then went to a firearm. I could not tell what type, but clearly there was a magazine visible.
Personal bugaboo: You cannot “shoot volts”, as voltage only represents the difference between two different things, like a full swimming pool and an empty one. If you want to siphon water from the full pool to the empty one, the flow of water between the two is in amperes, “amps”.
I thought limitless ObamaPhones and bottomless EBT cards were going to solve all these problems.
Now they are telling us we need to carry a taser, body armor, a Glock, handcuffs, and a mounted chest camera too?
Can't we just go back to the good old days of midnight basketball?
Right, they are bully cowards. That is why, when they attack in a mob, you only need to blast the head off one of them...
Be ready for the hyenas, if you are stupid enough to hang out in the urban jungle. Better MOVE to a civilized territory and let them eat one another.
oh by the way.. Just read it today..
Super Hero Mall Cop Gets Fired. Or whatever you want to call it.

As the guard put it, the mall probably figured that the liability wasn't worth it. And the guard is likely right that within a few weeks of him being gone, the drug dealers and gang bangers will have taken over (which likely was the point of their getting in his face so much). Ultimately, the mall will need to close, and the people who created the problem will get on the bus to suburban malls.
Looks like he also has a regular pistol on his hip to supplement the taser.
I have no idea, as to your post. Be more specific, I will always, answer
