  • This is a clip from one of my live meet-ups with the Tier 1 members of my Keep the Blaze Alive Coaching Squad (aka “The Squad”). The Squad has three levels of membership, and we meet weekly online with a 2-hour livestream where I answer questions and tell stories, and the Tier 1 members get two monthly two-hour Zoom calls where we talk face-to-face. I also host two 3-day events per year for my Tier 1 members. Learn more about The Squad at / coachingsquad

      That’s the problem^
      Never engage an “active shooter” yourself. Chances are the responding cops 🐷 will shoot you as well.
      Better to create distance and take care of yourself or your own family. Trying to be a white knight and protect others in public will likely get you injured or killed as well.
      Wish I didn’t have to say all that, just have heard too many horror stories of a “good guy” getting killed by overzealous responding cops. And most departments SOP’s are to neutralize anyone carrying a firearm.
