My wife took a handgun defense course taught by local law enforcement many years ago. Most of these students were women, but a few men sat through it with their wives just to make them more comfortable. I did. I remember well the admonitions ...... Never shoot anyone in the back, even if they just raped you and are leaving...... When you fire at a perp, even if he falls to the floor upon the first shot, keep shooting him until your gun is empty ....... Never pull a gun if you do not intend to pull the trigger.

May God bless America and those who defend her.
