Thread: Some advice for my coworker please

Started 1 month ago by ham385
I had a discussion with a coworker about a neighbor of his last week. The behavior he told me about is a little disconcerting, but the question is what to do? He, the coworker already told his brother, who is a local PD, but it appears nothing is being done, or can be done. I'll probably forget chunks, he's been telling me about this guy for about a year. Generally seems to be an unstable...

About all I can add is to ask "Is your coworker a gun owner?" Might make a difference should Mr.Potential Problem become Mr. Problem. Dale

Tough call, eh? On the one hand, he has a right to be an idiot, as long as no one else gets hurt, but now you know a little of the concern that non-gun folk feel about the rest of us. Your worry is that he'll act irresponsibly with his weapons. Their concern is that we'll act the same way. Difference? You have a background with weapons and recognize that this guy is a hazard, to himself ...

Just a thought. There's a fine line between being a dumbass and making bad judgements and being mentally insufficient to make good judgements. One avenue would be to "302" the guy.

I, personally, enjoy the government mandated smoking ban in...
