[QUOTE="jwcoopusa, post: 137460, member: 1543"] This from a Re-Late of mine who shoots more than most: [I]I have always shot more than most FBI, P.D. and S.O. officers I am aquainted with. The "liability hesitation" is what gets our officers killed. Every officer that does a "shoot" [B]KNOWS[/B] beforehand that he/she is going to get cross examined - - second guessed by his own organization and then have to withstand the civil or criminal suit filed by the relatives of the shootee. In reality it is not much better for us civilians. When a person is defending not only his family, but his family and himself [B]FOR[/B] his family, it is [B][COLOR="Red"]NOT HIS PRIVILEGE TO LOSE!![/COLOR][/B] Situational decisions should already be made as a part of your battle plans. [B][COLOR="Red"]I am an old heart patient that cannot run or fight. [/COLOR][/B] Situational awareness and shock and awe are my only options for not only survival but for the protection of my family. Practice. Front sight, squeeeeze is a modification of "[I]Point Shooting[/I]". I may not survive but I (pre)plan to damn sure make it not worth the effort for my adversary(s). That is a win.[/I] I listen to this guy, because I know his background, his training, and his focus upon the basics of self-preservation. We would all do well to develop his mentality when it comes to the purpose of firearms for self-protection; but more importantly, perhaps, for protection of our Own. -jwcusa- [/QUOTE]
