Much less lawyer chum in a "shoot to stop" policy.<br /><br />Plus: I've never been in a gunfight - my only defensive gun use was "show weapon, threat leaves area". But I've always heard "shoot to stop as effectively as possible. The survival or non-survival of the attacker shouldn't be a concern until after the threat has been dealt with." And "better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6." Both make sense to me.Javaheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14922782424313956036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-64827752254027573942016-06-28T10:52:48.930-05:002016-06-28T10:52:48.930-05:00Our local sheriff used to say shoot to kill, it...Our local sheriff used to say shoot to kill, it's cheaper to defend against a murder charge than support the SOB the rest of his life.Gorges Smythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777621500611603786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-63675076884150598222016-06-28T08:38:28.398-05:002016-06-28T08:38:28.398-05:00glad i've never seen it, hope i never do.

He hammered into us that we NEVER shoot to kill, but shoot to stop. Repeat after me: 'Two rounds center of mass are 40% more likely to hit and 400% more likely to stop.' We chanted that every day for a week and I still remember it some 25 years later. We trained that way, we would fight that way. And if I ever have to draw a weapon that will be what I do, I hope.Clayton W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09229588603043239939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-68794145907156594662016-06-28T06:56:46.098-05:002016-06-28T06:56:46.098-05:00This is a good start on an article actually relate...This is a good start on an article actually related to your book. I would plan out a series of articles, and if you get permission, reader questions. Another blog post could be going through and analyzing the reviews you got in Amazon. Another is other reviews you got, such as good reads.Ray - SoCalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11293232996007277071noreply@blogger.com
