re: #75 Obdicut

Obviously we just see her work differently. I’ll just say a little more by way of hoping you see how i got to my conclusions through your disagreement.

Her work with women has been a fine example of what defensive skills and counseling can do for those who face a threat or who have been victimized and fear another rape or attempted killing. That is an advocacy I share. An advocacy tempered by long effort & study. Today that is about guns. On other days it has been about a small man charged with excessive force to thwart another devastating punch from a very large man. In the past, other challenges to people just trying to go home unhurt with a violent predator on their ass somehow. Gun or not, many of the questions & answers are similar in the aftermath.

None of this is easy to teach. None of us who try are perfect or have the perfect curriculum. And I at least do feel the gravity of this stuff. I think nearly all who teach defensive skills do too, but I can only hope so. Any of us can say something dumb at some point.

You found a big flaw in what she said. Heh, maybe I should send you my study materials for review. Check that I prolly already have a piece at a time in the last months.
