Never shot. But shot at a couple times....
First time I was on the wrong side of a drive by shooting when I was about 12. We were playing basketball at a public park and some jerk-off rolls down his window and open fires on all of us. Second time was outside of a bar in undergrad. Have no idea what happened.. Walked out the bar was standing around talking to some chicks, there were about 10 people standing outside talking... guy gets out of the car and just opens fire on us. This one doesn't really count because it was not directly at me but I was at a club Christmas night 2003. The club was closing and me and my friend where walking to the door to leave and behind us we hear gun fire... couldn't have been more than 10 ft away... we ran into women's restroom. Found out later 5 people got shot |

Been shot at by some lunatics due to their road rage.
Been shot at by an unkown perp in the woods as a teenager, bullet shattered the bark on the tree we were next to. Been shot towards while deer hunting, slugs made a popping noise as the went past my head. Been shot at in Iraq during Desert Storm. Luckily I have never been hit!

Yes I have.
I have been shot and shot at.
I was hit by a fin off of a 12 guage slug. It is still in my calf. It lets me know when it is going to rain and when the temperature gets cold. Doctor advised not to remove it due to being so deep in my muscle mass. It does not bother me most of the time. I was shot at by a drunk with a bolt action 30-06. The bad thing was when we started to back the patrol car out we got stuck.....We then bailed out with the plan to kill him but he realized what was about to happen... he threw it down and ran....WE CAUGHT HIM TO SAY THE LEAST.......HE DID GO TO JAIL. |

Been shot at on two occasions. One evening, many years ago, I was just cruising home with the windows down. It was a beautiful summer evening, and it seemed like all my favorite songs were playing one right after the other on the radio. As I strolled towards a stop light, from my extreme left I saw a muzzle flash and heard the unmistakable "bang!" from a 45. I had zero time to react. I felt the breeze of the bullet pass my face and blow my hair. To my extreme right I could see it shatter the window of a parked car. I felt that it was an attempt at car-jacking. Needless to say, I did not wait for a green light and burned rubber to get out of range. I am not an overtly religious person, (I admit I have issues with religious fanaticism) but it is clear to me that there must be a higher power at work keeping watch over us all.

Been Tac-Lasered in my car and thought I was about to get shot, had a Bowie knife to my throat in a bar, got hit in the back of the head with a pipe but I haven't been shot at yet. Luckily!
