Good article on Threat Assessment / Shoot / No Shoot

[RicInOR]

it is addressed towards LEO, but would also apply for SelfDefense situations.

The video leaves a lot to be desired, along with a lot of cheap, easy answers to obvious no win situations...no matter who's involved.

Their credentials and experience would need some exploring.

I read that article a couple days ago. It finally hit me. What the article is saying is... 1) Cops are doing it all wrong... 2) There is one, right way to do it... 3) Only I know how to do that one, right way... 4) For a nominal fee, I will show you how.
To me, this sounds like the first hour, of the first day of sales 101.

Cell phone videos for an instructional or educational presentation are so credible.

The article started-off by stating that both sides want to save lives; then only gave advice to the LEOs...

I missed the advice for rioters, mobs, protestors, river-blockers, tree and bridge climber/hangers, poachers, tresspassers, kayactivists, and anyone else breaking the law...like our politicians.

Since I missed it in the article....

Knowing that LEOS are human too (not perfect); it's incumbent on the law-abiding citizenry to understand that, and do whatever they can do, to foster the safest environment(s) possible.....for everyone.
