hands safety ears
Safety is something that happens between your ears, not something you hold in your hands.
worry action self-defense
Let your attacker worry about his life. Don't hold back. Strike no more after he is incapable of further action, but see that he is stopped.
mistake government slavery
[T]he only thing the United States government ever did about slavery was to abolish it. Perhaps that was a mistake, but I do not feel inclined to apologize for it.
self-defense precision ifs
Under any sort of attack, keep cool. And if you must shoot, shoot with precision.
self long doe
Anger, as long as it is controlled anger, is no obstacle to efficiency. Self-control is one thing the sociopath does not usually possess. Use yours to his undoing.
morning people long
At long last I have discovered that most shooters are not interested in firearms as tools, but rather as toys. Such people do not acquire their weapons because of what they will do, but rather to gratify the "Christmas morning joy" that we largely left behind in our childhood.
successful reality thinking
Regardless of what we think we know and should happen the reality is that a lot of stock action is random. Therefore, money management is crucial if you want to be successful as a trader. To me, it`s the cornerstone of both making a living at trading and building wealth.
wise men hysteria
We are somewhat amused by the hysteria manifest in the press at the suggestion by Gordon Liddy that if one is menaced by bad guys (particularly the ninja) one is wise to shoot for the head. That statement has got a whole bunch of journalists and commentators bleeding from the nose. One wonders why it should. Where else should you shoot a man if he is probably wearing an armored vest? If you decide to shoot you have made the big decision. Where you place your shot is merely a technical matter.
speed salvation self-defense
Therefore, if you are attacked, retaliate instantly. Be sudden. Be quick. Speed is your salvation.
order law needs
One of the notable aspects of the democratic process is that one need not know anything about a subject in order to pass laws about it.
doors knowing house
No sensible person ever opens the door of his house without knowing who is knocking.
memories may watches
It may be that there is such a thing as racial memory, and it is supported by the undeniable observation that the goblins will get you if you don't watch out.
mind bears essentials
The essential thing is to bear always in mind that trouble can appear at any time. Be aware.Be ready.Be alert.
jobs hero men
'Heroism' is not the same as coping. A man who does his job properly and succeeds through his own efforts is definitely to be commended, but he is not a hero in the classic sense until he deliberately lays his life on the line for a cause he deems to be greater than himself.
