[QUOTE="David2012, post: 1950050, member: 24428"] I've attended dozens of job related self defense classes over the years. You always have people who don't take the training seriously... you can see they don't think their life will ever depend on that training so they aren't giving it their full attention & effort to learn. They are doing just enough to pass the course and get the heck out of there. And it is one thing to 'play act' with a friend what you or he would do in a situation, but it is another totally different thing to do it for real. Your friend wasn't trying to seriously hurt or kill you using self defense tactics in order to avoid being seriously hurt or killed himself. You were just being more aggressive in your 'play acting' than he was willing to be at the moment. And suddenly 'jumping' someone who considers you a friend and isn't expecting the attack is significantly different than a person being out in public with their weapon.. who has their situational awareness geared toward stranger dangers & is prepared to use a fully loaded weapon in self defense. What gets most people in self defense situations hurt or killed is their unwillingness to follow through with actually pulling the trigger and shooting someone once they have drawn their weapon.
