Personal And Home Protection Plan

  What exactly is the goal of a personal protection plan? At its most basic level, a personal protection plan is designed to help keep us PHYSICALLY, LEGALLY, FINANCIALLY, AND MORALLY SAFE. While our personal protection plans should include becoming proficient with a firearm or other defensive tool, our ultimate goal should be to avoid violent encounters in the first place by developing an awareness of our surroundings and by making intelligent decisions about our actions, behavior and precautions. Three options typically exist when it comes to a violent encounter: avoid the situation entirely, escape from a situation that is already in progress, or defend ourselves from a situation that we weren’t able to avoid and are unable to escape from. While the choice isn’t always left up to us, the topics in this chapter help to increase the likelihood that we’ll have an opportunity to avoid or escape from dangerous situations before a use of force is required.
