Hello. Not that the program needs my "yea" or "nay" but in my view, it has been and will almost certainly continue to be a first-rate program for folks interested in self-protection and being willing to take responsibility for their own safety. I asked my wife to watch a few minutes as she is just not a shooter (though she supports the Second; there would be a divorce otherwise) and then asked her if she understood what was being explained and if she felt talked down to. "Yes" to the first question and "No" to the second.
I think that it is a wise move to involve the ladies in this program and for obvious reasons; they're potential victims in more ways than might be common for us old heathen males. I also think that this might lead to making inroads with "soccer moms" and so forth, inroads that might turn some FOR supporting the Second rather than being ambivalent or AGAINST simply because they know no better.
While I live, breath, eat, sleep and dream guns, I know now and as a retired 25-year police officer, deadly force may very well not even be a viable option even if a criminal act is being committed against us. I like what is being shown on being aware of one's surroundings as well as less-than-lethal defense responses, though like shooting, hands-on proper training is necessary without question. Were I king, things would probably be otherwise, but that's not likely and as the saying goes, "It is what it is," and I believe that "Best Defense" is not only a winner but a public service to those clever enough to pay attention and consider their own situations relative to self-protection.
Best.
