The video is propoganda, but at least it is
our propoganda.
I have no significant issues with the piece, and am happy forward its viewing to others. Some things bother me, but they have little to do with the information presented. My issues with CCW in Missouri are mine alone.
You really need to have the weapon with you if you're going to interrupt a crime in progress...
As long as such statements do not represent a predetermined desire to do so, I'm okay with this. I can just see this rancher drawing down on someone taking a cow, then being left with no option other then to grease 'em because John Wayne readily involved himself. "That is a disturbing idea."
I am decidedly
not sanguine with John Q. being turned loose on the streets -- regardless of verifyable "good guy status" -- bearing a baseline skillset as low as 75% hits at 7 yards.
Most folks here could do that blindfolded, using nothing beyond listening and firing in the general direction. John Q., however, is a dumbass. Some standards for reasonable skill would seem appropriate, if you're going to have standards.
If we're not going to have standards, we should just toss firearms at everybody. (Which is a defendable position, it's just not mine.)
