What about an emergency with armed criminals?
Most likely, you're pretty good about keeping your loved ones out of harm's way, right?
You avoid the bad areas of town, walk in well-lit streets, and educate your kids about who they can trust.
But what if things went wrong anyway? (Like they often do. Look at the local news if you dare.)
Imagine if you did everything right, yet you still found yourself in a life-or-death situation...
One where it looked like not everyone in your family would survive...
Could you really handle it?
The answer is NO.
And as much as it pains me to say it, my own answer isn’t that reassuring either: I don't know.
But what I do know is that I am trained in how to protect my family from violence (gun, knife, & bare hands), severe injury, heat-exhaustion, and even an act of nature like a hurricane.
I can rest assured that if the worst case becomes reality, I know how to tend wounds, find shelter, stop rapid bloodloss, and even handle multiple assailants with weapons.
Now if I'm a trained Navy SEAL Commander and still am regularly receiving training like this...
What should YOU be doing?
Most individuals do next to nothing. They do the same basic preparations that every citizen does. And these preparations work when everything goes as it's supposed to.
But when the shit hits the fan, all that common-sense goes out the window.
