Default ($16) JJ in the bb versus 6xbb bet and cold call

Original raiser has been involved in a several pots, and seems sane but weak. The standard opening raise, and I think this true for most levels/players, is 3-4xbb. When I saw his opening raise I immediately pegged on him 99/TT and AK/AQ with possibly 88/QQ. A medium strength worth a raise but vulnerable to a flop. The cold caller is a donk and probably has a lower PP, AQ and lower, or KQ/KJs.

Basically I don't think I really want to take a coinflip here even if I am getting 2:1. I am ahead of both of their ranges, however the 6xbb raise and the cold call I think basically eliminates my chance of buying this pot preflop.

I dunno, I really didn't like pushing here but I felt that I was too far ahead to fold even though if they both called I was probably only a 50% favorite.

I want to buy the pot preflop, but don't mind one caller, but I hate both of them calling. CO is awful and could call with a wide range such as KQ.

Also, I think calling preflop is out of the question.
