Over 30 years ago some of us tried to get a Neighborhood Watch going. The Police officer in charge said, "If someone wants to get into your house, they will. Just make your house harder to get in than your neighbor's. Generally, if it's difficult, they will move on to easier pickings." Without thinking, we have a well-defensible home, just far enough out of a city, but not far off the beaten path. We're as ready as is reasonably possible for most contingencies.

During mass violence/riots, most people are unaware that a major metro police department has so few officers on duty that they cannot even hold three major road intersections and will be unable to respond to individual incidents. This is especially true on afternoon or night shifts when less personnel are on duty.

Great points, Justin. Most important thing I've learned from training with former SEALS. Green Berets and other SF guys- in any crisis situation, the vast majority of the people will panic or be useless. So, you have to ask yourself-do you want to be a liability or an asset? That might mean carrying a firearm, it might mean carrying an IFAK (or both); it might mean just keeping your head and helping people when everyone else is panicking. I constantly ask myself: Do you have what it takes to be an asset?

Lethal vs Non-Lethal: my non-lethal response is me mumbling, "You bad guys better get out of here..." then comes the lethal. All jokes/reality aside, the problem comes between the response time of law enforcement (I'm fmr LEO) and the reality of the situation. We've got to get to a point in this country when the judicial system recognises that the common man is under the 'when seconds count, help is only minutes away' rule...and we don't have that kind of reality and wait time. It is sad to read about a person defending their home from a 'choir boy' who enters at 0200 in the morning, jacked up on smack with a tire tool in his hand (or worse), given the ambient temperature challenge...all for the homeowner to be arrested, charged and then drained of their funds for years to come in the court rooms. If it comes to that, of course a person will be glad (read: GLAD) that their family is OK, but then the injustice begins. Good thoughts, but the system needs an overhaul.

[@SherryEllesson]

Thank you for this video. You've given me some things to think about, in a more immediate sense.

For the medical, I would say, take a Stop the Bleed class, or bare minimum, a CPR/First Aid class. There are some great EMT classes you can also take if you want to deep dive into EMS. Yes, it takes a few months, but it would be worth it. What you learn here literally would give you a clear idea of how to respond to a gunshot wound, heart attack (MI), you name it. Once you pass the class, congrats, you are steps away from being actually licensed in the EMS world. As always, great information.

Helps to chat from time to time on these things. I get complacent, so helps to talk about it for me

[@lukepippin4781]

That is very good, to be able to have that introspection and have a feel for what you will actually do. Most people think “in this situation I’ll do such n such” but the main problem isn’t what you’ll do in that situation. It’s that initial decision to acknowledge that situation is occurring. I know for me it’s a thing where my mind will start to ask questions that are not necessarily rational and have obvious answers, but my confidence in those answers is too low. This doesn’t really apply to someone breaking into the house, there’re very few questions to be asked in that situation, but in a public scenario it could be a problem.

[@jc10907Sealy]

3 barking dogs, 10 camera security system, indoor and outdoor sirens, two doorricade bars over external doors with 6-inch screws to studs, and adding bullet proof security film to my patio doors (expensive but worth it).

Develop and practice situation awareness. As mentioned previously, keep your doors locked all the time. When at a stop light/sign, leave room between you and the vehicle in front of you in case you need to flee. Constantly monitor your mirrors and field of view. Don't trust GPS to take you through the safest route. Know the area you're driving through. Might be safe in the day time but not at night. Keep abreast of the local news so you know what's going on. Play the "what if game." Give your mind something to fall back on during a stressful situation. Know where the exits are when you enter a store or building. During inclement weather, slow down. Don't ignore your intuition. Keep your mouth shut and walk away from trouble. Suck up your pride so you can live for another day. The list goes on and on...

If you have sliding doors, get the kit with a bar, and the special bits for preventing the door being lifted out of the tracks.

If you have a CERT organization in your county, that is a good place to start for the next level of 1st aid training and emergency preparedness. Plus you get an inside look on your areas plans. Our county also offers a Stop the Bleed class several times a year for free and other classes for free. I earned my Black Belt when I was 40, after 8 years of training, competing and 4 years of instructing. That was 20 years ago. Working on getting back in fighting form. Got bored with the heavy bag, plus wanted something to practice edged weapons on, so screwed some old tires to the wall next to the bag. It's working so well, that I'm mounting 2 more tires. They aren't bad for punching either. They are loud though, so I'll be putting some carpet between the tires and the wall, then stuffing them with pool noodles. Noise wouldn't be much of a problem if I wasn't pulling off a workout 5 days a week at 4:30 am. lol

[@metarugia3981]

Install security mesh/grill for all your doors and windows plus a full home alarm system. These are good investments to deter any would be robber/thief trying to break into your home. If they see your home is well protected, they'll think twice about trying to break it down when there are plenty of other easier pickings around. Thieves and robbers usually tend to go the path of least resistance so as to make their job easier and attract less attention. Our home has never been broken into, but our next door neighbor has had it happened twice. A secure home also means your family is well protected from intruders. There will be times when you won't be there to protect your family due to work, errands or other activities, but knowing your home is protected and safe gives peace of mind. Additionally, a good home security system adds value to your property.

Even a small dog will show bravery and attack - if nothing else, the growling and barking may throw an intruder off. True story: My mother, who has since passed, had four fluffy poodles the biggest of which was a male that weighed about 23 pounds, the others were smaller - about 11-15 pounds at the most. These fluffy, well groomed little lapdog "foo-foo" poodles cornered this guy and VICIOUSLY held him there on the floor in a corner of the kitchen loudly growling, barking and snapping at the intruder like demons. Mom called the police - the dogs kept the intruder cornered on the floor. The police arrived about 15 minutes later and cuffed / jailed the intruder. The amazing part was that none of these fluffy, well coifed little lap dog poodles had ever had any kind of attack or intruder training.
