This is only the 2nd time I’ve posted a link to another blog article. But, this one deserves the acknowledgement and is worthy of a hat tip! My friend and colleague truly deserving of the term “Dental Warrior,” Dr. Sherman House, has written up an excellent article about self-defense. Be warned… it’s necessarily a long article (in the spectrum of blog articles). It’s NOT an article “about guns.” It’s about avoiding trouble and a defensive mindset in the context of real world threats, which come in many forms.
An excerpt and summary of what Sherman covers:
…and here is what I feel should constitute the undergraduate education of THE CIVILIAN DEFENDER:
- Criminology/Street Smarts
- Defensive Driving
- Emergency Medical
- Legal Preparation, Aftermath and Rules of Engagement
- Less Lethal skills
- Handgun Carry Course
- Handgun Skills and Tactics Course
- Defensive Tactics
It’s WELL worth the 20 minutes of reading.
Thank you Mike! I appreciate the share. This has kind of turned into a living, “thesis,” presentation, based on my life’s odd, “path.” I will be presenting a lecture on this at an upcoming, charity tactical conference. The details are here:
