A few excerpts:
"Individually, I believe, based on a life of studying criminals, that all law-abiding Americans should arm themselves and carry every day. We should make a conscious effort to frequent 2nd Amendment friendly businesses and avoid “Gun Free Zones” when you can. (Statistics show that most mass killings in the past 50 years happen in gun free zones. They are a feeding ground for Active Shooters/Killers.)"
"If we find ourselves in an Active Shooter/Killer type incident, we should not go quietly into that good night, we should not project fear, but a righteous anger that someone would dare try to take our lives, our loved ones, our children. We should adopt a new mindset of ethical warriors who will not hide and become stationary targets waiting for our executioner to call our number in a waiting room for death."
"Every battle is won or lost in the mind first. I know from working the streets as a police officer for over 20 years, when you have the paradigm shift from potential victim to Ethical Warrior, you will project a whole different situational awareness perceived by those who would do you harm. They will be forced to go find weak prey because you will no longer fall into that category."
