Cull the herd before you go down so the next guy has less targets.

The biggest issue is finding the leader.  You can pick off the trailers in the herd and not affect the leaders of the pack.  But, if you take out the leader the rest of the pack ceases to function.  The question is whether the ones at the forefront are the leaders, or are they just the pawns sacrificed by the leader who is sitting back in the pack?

Carry plenty of ammunition, and don't ever waste it!

The one running his mouth the most. He will be jumping and pumping up the rest into a frenzy.

I like what Michael mentioned in the podcast for a self defense situation...focus on the guy most close to you who can interfere with your defense and to keep an eye on the hands that may be making a draw around you.

There was some sage advice on that podcast.  I don't know about you guys, but I put them on CD-R's and listen to them on the way to and from work.  This is an episode I'll listen to several times.

I think I would also try to limit it to one round per target.  My goal would be to take as many out of the fight as possible.

Take out two or three knee-caps, then watch the rest scatter like roaches!

I have adapted information from Yakoff Smirnoff to my defensive posture:

Warning shots - When I shoot one or two the leaders should consider that their warning shots and respond accordingly.

Knee cap....not a good idea for a lot of reasons.

Mr. Rastus,

I appreciate you reading and quoting me, but I don't knee cap.  The gun is not a tool of warnings, except for the procedure I described.  If the gun comes out it is most likely to the point that it is going to go bang, and I use the triangle target - nipple, nipple and zit in the center of the forehead.
