Bounty Hunter interview-Nic

[@timg5463]

I had a friend who was a bounty hunter for about two months. He was a former Marine who taught empty-hand combat to other marines. He was a dangerous man but super nice. His first capture was a guy he dragged from under a bed and handcuffed to the roll bar in the back of his pickup to take in. He quit after two months. I asked him why and he looked at me with his hard eyes and said " Some of these people do not want me to catch them a lot more than I want to get them and they are crazy dangerous.'

[@blackflag-bountyboys]

Just a little backstory: Perspective is often due to the angle at which you are viewing a situation. Just because you feel a certain way doesn’t mean it’s accurate or that your feelings consider the entirety of that situation. The guy who was taken to court, using pain compliance, was refusing to go to court and was sitting in his sisters car. She had driven him to court and was begging him to go in. The day prior, his sister and the bondsman had lost $10,000 because of the same situation. His sister was a single mom, broke, and had signed his bond as the indem to do him favor so that he wouldn’t have to sit in jail. She put up two bonds, each for $10,000 and this was the thanks she received by her brother. She was blocks away from the courthouse because when she would drive too close, he would start destroying her car. He was in a volatile place and was mistreating someone who loved him (mental illness or not) So by taking him to court that day we saved her and the bondsman a large amount of money. I wish I had helped her the day before. I wish her brother wasn’t mentally ill. But you can wish in one hand and shit in the other.. you know the saying. Also, the girl who went to treatment and we picked her up. We got her off the bond she was on with the pervert who had been her bondsman. We took her to jail but had another bondsman lined up for her within 12 hours, she was back out and checked into that treatment facility. Just so you know, we did take care of her and helped her as best we could. We also reported him to the DOI. My team does NOT do recoveries for that bondsman, that was the last day I spoke with him. And I did tell him exactly what I thought about him. 👍 we were not paid for that day because he got his feelings hurt during my conversation with him. No love lost here. Wanted this to be understood, there are always different views/angles to be seen. Emotions are raw, and they refuse to be reasoned with. It’s not often that our emotions tell the truth. Take care and be safe 😉 Nic - November1

[@bryandraughn9830]

Some situations don't have a perfect solution. They still need to be dealt with. I can only imagine how difficult it must be to weigh the unknowns in the blink of an eye. Sounds impossible almost. I for one am grateful to you the same way that I'm grateful to our veterans. Thank you Nic.

Great interview with Nic. Nic, is so much like my brother. My brother was not a bounty hunter, but he was just like Nic, when NIcs off of work. My brother was 6ft 5, 280, and his name was Jack. My Dad, called him action Jackson. When ever he saw a man hitting a woman, he went into action. He had more guts then any man i have ever met. When 911 happened He was right into action. He took his dump truck, left our state and went to New York to do all he could to help. He stayed on the site helping for 48 hours. Nic, reminded me so much of him also when he said, punks, start calling him Sir. I saw older men call my brother Sir, when he over powered them, always with his hands . We lost him 2 years ago, and their is a great chance, it was do to him helping out in New York. He was exposed to stuff that gave him cancer, like many others exposed there also got. Nic, is a great human being, just like my brother was. God bless Nic.

Throughout the whole interview it seemed like he kept inadvertently going back to his team, his family, strangers. You can tell how important the community is to this guy. Guy just seems like a genuine guardian. After watching this I wanna work out, and make sure I’m the best version of myself, so I can be there for those around me when the time comes. Seems like thats how Nic lives. My favorite interview to date Not to mention how kind and respectful he comes off, while also remaining stern and stuck to his convictions.

I think if a lot of especially young men got this 'I need to be a leader' shit out of their heads, things would go better for them. No one's asking for men to be leaders, no one ever did, that's just something arseholes made up retrospectively to justify their unsolicited actions. Men need to learn who they really are and how to be without trying to put their balls on everyone's nose all the time. It's too much pressure for anyone to deal with.

@@complimentary_voucher , I would argue that we had no need to ask anyone to be leaders, bc men were so naturally good at it that they were already leading. It wasn't a problem when women were still using their wombs as intended. In fact, it made sense.

Men are already supremely self-reflective. It's not any real men who are doing all that bad shit, it's boys, boys with no masculinity/strong masculine father figures to make good men out of them. It's the LACK of masculinity (caused by ppl like you dumbly demonizing masculinity and attempting to feminize men), and the shrinking number of real men/strong father figures who would hold boys responsible for their BS in our society that is the root cause of these issues, not anything wrong with the way men act themselves. So yes, *you do need men to take action* .

wow. i’m speechless. as many of y’all, i’m a HUGE fan of these interviews & find them as a way to decompress from my day. i’m a middle school social worker & im completely flabbergasted on how on point his concepts of life are. his ideas & views are on there not being enough leaders, not enough people taking accountability, and respect are SPOT ON. I often find myself having these conversations with middle schoolers… filming ‘friends’ while they are getting beat up is one concept that constantly blows my mind.. yet this is the new norm. this interview has me thinking beyond what I thought… just love these damn interviews 🙏🏽 thank you for these unexpected interviews that allow us to connect different concepts and aspects of life.

Did you hear the part in which he lied to the woman to get her out of a treatment center only to deliver her to the bail bondsmen, who was planning to extort her for sex? He nicely deflected his part in trafficking her, but that is what happened.

[@amber76OH]

@@pixie6133 no, did not hear that piece of the interview. Thanks for pointing it out. I may have been distracted. I did hear him say that he doesn't always love his role in this job, perhaps it was centered around that comment. Bailbondsmen are unregulated, and can be known to be quite cruel, but I was certainly glad he saved that girl from getting murdered. I am sure he's no saint, but he seems to at least have a moral compass, so hopefully his good traits outweigh the bad (honestly that's about all I can hope for in people these days).

[@HIGH_noon]

this society is a very simple generalzation... not saying you feel or mean it in any way but when you compare what you think it should be to your reality or the bad, really bad parts, its not that simple. like take a large city in US say NYC or LA, most ppl say those places are shitholes me included, the general societal culture in those cities has changed over time but today there is soooo many things that are making them spiral out of control especially with the whole society reality of it if you know about it or live there... me i used to live near NYC but now i live in rural south and there is far less crime, ppl are nicer, youd be shocked at how vastly different they are and im glad to be living here because its a world that we naturally crave like the ideals and morals and principles you, me and him are talking about exist here unlike LA or NYC... when you have that large amount of ppl you lose the small town vibe where you know your neighbors and start to care about what happens to some random person in city, then you neighborhood, then your 2-3 block, then your street then right next door... its sad but the ppl who dont see it happening or care enough to change it countinue to exist in it while the ppl who do get fed up and leave. naturally things get worse and worse and worse to where we are today... you start to rationalize and normalize that behavior and your envioirment to a point where you lack the self awarness to even know its gotten so bad.

[@Saer-s9u]

The majority of males and a few females were quiet angels under the radar angels who help keep us safe. Safe in north America (albeit ignorant of the quiet work under their noses). On occasion, our governments contract teams to other countries that need to 'take care of business) before it hits our shores. If they are killed in a foreign land...families are 'conditioned' to not ask questions. Don't expect a body to be recovered and returned. It's part of military but secret enough at the same time. First time I've been able to say RIP to the silent angels in my family. The other silent angels are the supportive wives/sisters and mothers. Respect dear warrior!!! Warriors all!!

[@Saer-s9u]

Ahhh one of the dirty secrets in this line of work is they keep working even tho pstd lurks. Many cope using alcohol and/or drugs. The success rate is high too. I've figured out they get stuck if government contracts own their azzes. And some are flat out addicted to adrenaline.

There are a lot of unsung heroes out there that we need to be aware of and appreciate. I think it would be interesting to see interviews with those who work with the mental or drug rehabilitation facilities.

[@ryspace]

Just because someone isn’t homeless or an addict doesn’t mean they’re not troubled. Lots of people in law enforcement are pretty troubled. Bounty hunters even more so because basically anyone that can pass a background check can become one. Any position that has a low barrier to entry and allows one to run around with a gun fighting and handcuffing people will attracted a lot of people with a certain type of “troubled”.

Yeah, it’s sad but your better of not getting involved. For one she ain’t gonna leave him or she wouldn’t be there with him then. Secondly, when other guys get involved it ends up him beating her even worse when they get home. Also, if you end up in a fight with the guy the girl is likely to jump in your back too. Unless it looks like he’s gonna kill her I wouldn’t get involved.

I do not share his profession, but in South Africa, where crime is more prominent than most places in the world, and police can only do so much if anything sometimes. You HAVE to take action into your own hands in some ways in order to prevent something terrible happening. It's not about playing hero; it's about standing up against the wrong in the world. Life is difficult enough as is, so if you can save someone or prevent bad things from happening and you know you are capable, I believe you should do it. Great interview
