They could have had a gun, other knives, who knows? But I'm stubborn. And I fight to earn my money and that's a hard way to make a living. And I'm not just going to give it away to guys like that. I believe if you can do something to help someone else, you should. We're all here and we should all try to help each other if we can. It's the right thing to do. I just did what I thought was right. Really young guys, and I think they were probably on drugs or something. It's too bad. But I didn't think it was right just to stand by and do nothing."
