Hey Rob!
I was watching the show last night and not only injoyed it but gave me a few questions about other variables that could come into play. Take the same scenerio as last night and add 2 or more CCW holders who do not know each other but happen to be in the same place. They both or all respond to the threat but now are unsure if any of the other CCW are part of the threat are not.
You can Yell Good Guy or CCW holder. But when it comes down to the amount of Adrenaline being pump into the heart, How and who do you believe? As many more people are getting their CCW, this could become an issue! How do you feel is the smartest and/or safest way to deal with this?
Wish I could have seen the rest of the shows, but work called and off I go. really need to get a DVR soon. Thanks ahead of time for your opinion...

The 2/24 show has several implications. The company I work at before retiring implemented a no firearms on company property. In the past most of us during hunting season kept our rifles or shot guns in personal vehicles in the parking lot. Not telling tales out of school, but rumor was sometimes in the linetruck during deer season. ;) Well they called me back as a contractor to teach. We have had a few bad apples in these classes that were expelled. The instructors conversation was what would happen if one came back with bad intentions.
While I have a LTCF, I play by our company's rules. This episode presented the other option in lieu of of PSD. Thanks for the information presented in that episode.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge..but I am not familiar with the LTCF and PSD acronyms...any help?

I'm assuming LTCF = License to carry firearms, and PSD = Personal self-defense??? Hopefully I got those right.

The good news is that under critical incident stress, all the good guys should, in theory, be initially focused on the actual bad guy... afterwards, their will be an assessment phase OR you will be distracted by something else... if the "something else" is another good guy shooting, you need your Assessment mindset to be kicking in or bad things could happen. This is kinda related to realistic training for multiple threats, which we also covered recently on the show. If you still believe that defensive shooting against multiple threats is going to look like a Steel Challenge speed stage, it makes sense to expect the worst... luckily (in this case), that is not the way people actually behave in real fights when ambushed/surprised, so we can actually expect to have a "recognition" moment to assess whether or not we need to shoot the "other" guy(s) with guns. See the article in the newsletter I published today through the icetraining.us site for more on that. We also put out a DVD over a year ago ( I think) dealing with Multiple Persons in a critical incident, including people you want to protect who are unarmed, a friend that you might want to work with to solve the problem or just some other random CCW holder.
