It is unquestionably the BEST episode I personally have seen to date! … It discussed nearly ALL the elements the armed citizen needs to be aware of and consider … Especially as it pertains to concealed carry, self-defense, and use of deadly force with a handgun:
- maintaining situational awareness (perhaps the MOST important thing!)
- mental preparedness/mental toughness
- proficiency with a firearm and the need for proper (and continuous) firearm training
- the great personal responsibility of carrying and using a firearm for self-defense
- recognition of the dangerous world we live in (sadly)
- being prepared to act (goes with the aforementioned mental preparedness/mental toughness and recognition of the dangerous world we live in)
- understanding when to use deadly force (justification and legal use), when to break off, etc
- applicable state laws and differences in state laws with regard to use of deadly force/firearms
- legal ramifications/consequences of using deadly force/firearm (what to expect and how the police/law will (or may) see what has occurred with regard to what you have done/actions you took)
- contacting/calling the police immediately
