No matter how nice you are, or how much verbal judo you practice, sometimes you just gotta win a fight to survive. These officers practiced Active Self Protection in coming out alive from this one!
Original video and news story of the officer involved shooting: https://get-asp.com/slix there is a LOT more context in the original…like 9 minutes of them talking nicely to the guy.
What does this officer involved shooting teach CCW and LEO alike about surviving a murder attempt?
1. The root word of gunfight is “fight,” not “gun.” Whether you carry a firearm or not, recognize that you need to know how to fight and protect yourself against an attacker! Even if you do carry a firearm, you need empty-handed skills to be able to fight your way to your gun or defend yourself before you get the opportunity to draw. To think otherwise is madness.
There are FIVE additional lessons that apply to us all on our website, and four MORE lessons for instructors to use in classes, so head there for more: https://get-asp.com/gdjz
Attitude. Skills. Plan.
