Where are you PTK??
(By Contributing Author Mark Edwards) A few days before the tragic Batman Movie Massacre in Colorado, I found myself without my Pocket Trauma Kit (PTK). In my daily travels, I find my brain dwelling on tasks at hand, and then at stop lights, sometimes wondering what I forgot to bring along. On a recent Thursday, it was my PTK. Some background might be in order. A few years…
Fear
I have been writing articles on Active Shooter scenarios since this blog began. I have made it my mission to equip the average civilian with the tools and information needed to defeat these animals.

I am a huge fan of mental exercises to keep us sharp and focused in matters relating to security. I equate these drills to dry firing with our weapons: it does not cost us a dime and we maximize our time in the process, cementing the fundamentals. The exercise I will describe below can be…
ID, Guns and the Cops
I have been reading and hearing a lot in the news lately on people being harassed and even jailed for not showing ID when a cop ask them. Like a lot of things in the news, sometimes, we the viewer/reader do not get the whole “Scoop” on the situation that caused the Police to act…
The Fallacy of the “Panic Room”
