OK so if you have no arms but own firearms are you still armed?
After 30 years in law enforcement, and someone who has faced the elephant more than once, I can tell you that training will only take you part way. Mind set is the key. Go over and over in your mind what you would do in a situation. When that fight or run sequence starts and you get tunnel vision, things will happen so fast you wont believe it.
You will fight or run, get your weapon, train with it until you can do it in your sleep and be prepared to protect your family. I pray you never have to use it. As far as the gun being taken away, MMA training wont help. You need to review gun retention techniques. MMA fighters dont fight with one hand, if you try to retain your weapon, you may only be able to fight with one hand or none until you can clear the attacker. Mind set is the key, then training etc....
Nope- unless you were being sarcastic, I have to say you are dead wrong. If you cannot use your firearm competently then you are nothing more than a land mine that someone hasn't stepped on yet...if you are unwilling to take someone's life then you are nothing but a walking holster for someone that is willing to kill...
The analogy is sound. Pencils don't make authors, cars don't make you a NASCAR pro and simply owning a gun certainly doesn't make you safer than you were before. You have to refuse to be a victim, embrace the mentality that you may have to take someone's life and take responsibility for needing to practice and be competent enough with your firearm to hit your intended target.
Oh, and knowing the laws as to when you can use deadly force would also help...
What do you think?
