    So ran some errands after dinner last night. Blue button down for Graduation Party, 511 and check . Top off gas in truck. Check . Stop for a 12 pack . Holy Mother a Homeless Crackhead ax juggling wackadoo .
    I pull into the parking lot and Slotard the bicycle ridin clown is weaving in and out of lot traffic whilst flipping a hatchet in the air . K . I enjoy the show , find a parking spot and get out . Well our fine Crystal Methodist pulls up at Beer Distributor and dismounts hatchet in hand a fallipin . Guy is just hangin, effin with the ax and his bike next to the entrance. If I haven't clearly painted the Bob Ross masterpiece by know leh me
    splain it. Mofugga looks not shelf stable , 5'10" and a buck fitty of unwashed Cray Cray .
    So keeping Tueller in mind . For y'all non LEO that's , Stupid with a weapon can traverse 21ft and give you a makeover before you can draw . So I digress. I walk past keeping an eye etc . Low and behold Dumbass walks in behind me . In summation. Henry Longfellow Eisten buys a tallboy , goes out , cracks it open and proceeds with the ax show whilst owning the area . No one at this point goes anywhere near . After all the inexplicable evil and violence lately I decided to call 911 .
    So I call and get the Queen of the ghetto. She doesn't have any idea of the location , street , cross street or businesses being described . She asked " is he bothering anybody "? Pretty sure I just explained it . So I just said hey , with all the crazy violence going on I figured I should call . Her response was a resounding " ahh muh gahd ", as if I was here toddler waking her up at 2am . How bout save your editorial and send a cop . You know the thing . You get paid for it . Ya know in between surfing your phone and tryna remember to breathe .
    Funny if Skippy did go all Paul Bunyon on some suburban housewife local authorities would be bitchin that " no one called about an ax wielding lunatic" .

    Common around here. And Camping outdoors 'without address' here local, spunout and walking around with a hatchet seems it not illegal. Also LE does not want the sticky homeless stank hanging in the cruiser for days that sticks to the inside of your nose. so No way they putting their hands on him.

    I mentioned the Tueller drill to a couple of cops and they had no clue.
    Because almost no one ever calls it that, people know “the 21 foot rule” in all the training I’ve been to and years around instructors I’ve never once heard anyone use the guys name. A lot of people who don’t even go train have heard the term “21-foot rule”.

    People aren’t automatically stupid for not knowing a term that’s rarely ever used

    I explained it. They were enlightened.

    A lot of times these folks are well known by LE. I called non-emergency on a cold(40) rainy day because this half naked dude kept running at a major highway and was screaming at nothing, even said I’m not trying to get the guy arrested it’s obviously a mental episode and I didn’t want a car t hit him and shut the road down. Dispatch asked for a description and when I gave one she said “oh that’s Douglas, he will be okay”. Well he’s still going to get hypothermia and you know he’s crazy and doesn’t know what he’s doing…
     
    Dennis Tuellers research was first published in SWAT magazine in 1983. Safe to say his name is as familiar to present day shooters as Jack Weaver.
    yet the majority of people still call it “the 21-foot rule”, and plenty of people don’t know who the guy weaver stance was named after. You know it so you assume everyone does/should when the person doesn’t even matter just know the info.

    Oh, I just know it because I date from that era. I would never expect younger people to recognize Tueller, anymore than Ray Chapman, Elden Carl, John Plahn or many other influential founders of Modern Pistolcraft. That's all ancient history. Just thankful for that knowledge, whatever name it's called by.
