WSLS10 revisits the 21' rule

Post by wittmeba »

Channel 10 WSLS news Roanoke Va has been revisiting the 21 foot rule when someone draws a knife and you are armed. They have been airing this for the last couple days on 6:00 news and point out that in open space you can still get stabbed even if you get off a shot. They suggested getting anything between you and the perp such as furniture, tables if in a cafeteria, walls, etc. In their demonstration they had the officer (good guy with a gun :) ) back up while talking to deescalate the threat and put greater distance between himself and the perp. It is interesting to see and hear these stories after you read and discuss them on these forums.

A Concealed Weapon Permit is nothing more than a permit to allow a LAC to wear a jacket.
