[QUOTE="HMFIC, post: 2129473, member: 7539"] One more thing and then I'm probably done with this thread... I'm still shaking my head at some of the responses. I've said it before in the Ersland discussion. You guys obviously can do whatever you want. Everyone is entitled to their opinion too. BUT... If you want to avoid some problems, you need to not only train your hands and eyes with your weapon, but you should also consider these type of scenarios and train your mind as well. Give careful and thoughtful consideration to how you would react and cement that attitude in your mind. Training reactions begins with your assessment of a situation. Take the opportunity when you're out and about to imagine situations that might present themselves and determine a plan of action or what you would do. Some of this is just the way you naturally think or behave anyway, but you should at least give some credence to the idea that under duress, you may get caught up in emotions or stress. It's important that you exercise your mind and train your thinking so that you will act accordingly. [/QUOTE]
