Whenever entering a darkened room, it was his custom to shut the door behind him first, and then move his hand to the light switch to turn it on. Before his hand touched the switch, he glimpsed a shadow moving towards him. Mitch enjoyed ambushing his prey, but he hated to be on the receiving end.
Mitch had come to know that violence is indeed the proverbial crap shoot. When in it, the best you can expect is to make sure you have stacked the odds in your favor, knowing that if you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics are not good at all.
