My area has experienced two pistol whipping robberies of individuals in the last couple of days... where a car loaded with 3-4 hood rats pulls up next to someone... a guy jumps out with a handgun...pistol whips and robs the person of their valuables... including their shoes... before taking off. I hope this isn't gonna be a new trend among the local gang bangers. One guy was just going out to get his mail. The other walking to his car in a parking lot.
It would bad enough trying to defend yourself against one or two attackers on foot...you [might] have a chance at getting to your self defense weapon... but a car load of 3-4 people is pretty overwhelming. One guy outside the car with a gun confronting the victim.. and no telling how many guns pointing at the victim from inside the car.
Duncan, OK isn't too far away from Lawton. That is where a Australian baseball player out jogging was shot down a few years ago by 3 teens who were bored and wanted to know what it would be like to kill someone. Drove by him and shot him down for giggles. Seems these young thugs now days don't place much value on human life any more.

LAWTON, Okla._ Police are investigating two robberies in as many nights after two men say they were pistol whipped.
Officers were called to the latest crime around 9:30 Tuesday night near NW 64th and Cache Road. A man says several people in a car pulled up to him in a parking lot and pulled out a gun. One suspect reportedly said "you know what this is" before hitting him with a gun. The victim says the robbers took his money, some other items and his shoes.
LPD is investigating a similar robbery Monday night at SW 73rd and Lee where a man says three men in a car pulled up while he was getting his mail. He too says he was pistol whipped and robbed.
