Safety Tip
The police, try as they may to
protect us, can't be everywhere all of the time.
(And quite frankly, I wouldn't
want them to be everywhere all of the time. That's called a communist police
state, and it's not what America is about)
Also, for the most part, the police can only
get involved after a crime has already been committed.
You and I are the real first line
of defense and we have the right to
protect ourselves and our loved ones against crime, with REASONABLE FORCE.
Reasonable force means if
someone threatens you with words, then you have the right to defend yourself
with words...If someone threatens you with physical violence, then you have the
right to protect yourself against them with physical violence...If someone
threatens to take your life with a weapon, then you have the right to take their
life in self defense.
However, you do NOT have the
right to take someone's life if they merely threaten you with words.
It's a fine line between
reasonable and unreasonable force. And that line gets even thinner in the
heat of battle.
