even if you choose to comply knowing
what your options are helps you be a
better Defender

here at active cell protection I'm your
host John Korea today's video comes to
us from Lynchburg Virginia Palm pepper
spray has recently reformulated for even
more effect when you bless the deserving
with the hot sauce Palm is what I use
between a harsh word and a gun and
encourage everyone to do likewise lady
working behind the counter here is a new
employee she is going to wave these guys
over to the bathroom and show them
they'll ask where it is and she showed
them we have audio when they come back

come on both oh I'm sorry oh
they're gonna make her go into the back
room and since we can't really see
anything I've sped this portion up just
for the sake of time you can see him
start grabbing cigarettes let's continue
to listen in
[Music]

[Music]

[Music]
dudes left with the money and the
cigarettes after coming around the front
here and her showing them something else
thankfully they did not harm her and as
far as I know police have not caught
them you know we explain those different
times to First Shot Show how to do them
and how to do them effectively over on
active self-protection extra so if
you're a concealed carrier please go
over I've hit a link in the description
to extra please go subscribe over there
we want to train you totally for free
and that's where we do there are going
to be opportunities here for counter
Ambush for us to find them so I bet you
you can see a few of them already now
she waves them over to the bathroom I
will say again that I think a hood up
over your face and a mask on your face
hood on your head mask on your face is
absolutely a pre-attack indicator and
that's what we see from our purpose here
is that masks on and hoods up that is
absolutely a pre-attack indicator now
then you know she really only knows that
an attack is coming though when he
points a gun in her face so you're not
going to do anything in the universe
here to draw a gun or whatever I don't
even think she has a firearm on her but
I'm going to talk to those of us who are
concealed carriers that I think that if
you try it here you're dead right we
call that drawing from the drop but
let's look for opportunities where we
might be able to counter Ambush these
guys depending on our skill set
remembering what our standards are so
now she has to comply and she does a
good job of that she just kind of you
know holds her hands at her waist and
like okay whatever you want she talks
very calmly to them gives them kind of
whatever it is that they were asking for
now
she goes to kind of get into the
register and notice here that he is now
not looking at her at all and so if she
has a 1.5 second draw to first shot here
there's literally nothing in the
universe he is going to do to be able to
beat her to that shot so if this was
probably her first opportunity if you
have a 1.5 consistent all-day cold on
demand drawing for a shot you can if he
shows you his ears shows you the side of
his head or his shoulder you absolutely
can you know get a shot off on him
before he can get to you usually the
first person to put a shot on target
wins of course we start adding a second
bad guy here and now things really get a
little bit crazy and so she's gonna get
some opportunities here now he turns
away from her completely right so now he
showed her the back of his head or the
and again that back of his head or his
back at all that's a two second draw in
first shot if you have a two second
drawing for a shot nothing he's going to
do to beat you back to that in that
moment now of course she's not really in
a position to draw a gun here I'm not
saying she would have to also we don't
get to see where the second and bad guy
is in this particular one I'm just
saying if you are paying attention to
what your visual go signals are for a
counter Ambush and an armed robbery
those are the two big ones the ear or
the back of the head or the back and and
or the shoulders so any of those are
really really important she's going to
get more opportunities here and we'll
just kind of Point them out as they come
because she's going to walk away from
where the money is then these guys are
not paying attention to her and she has
them stacked up there in that one so
she's got those if she's got a quick
draw she could have ended this threat
very quickly there it is again except
for this one's a little bit different
because our bad guy you know that's
closest to her here is not paying
attention to her guns down he's not on
her but I don't know about the guy in
fact the guy in the brownish yellowish
hoodie I don't know if he's looking at
her or not so you would have to have a
very fast drawn first shot here which is
why we always say listen when you add an
attacker multiple attackers every time
you add another attacker you increase
the difficulty by an order of magnitude
so make sure that you understand that
and you put yourself in a place where
maybe you can deal with them one at a
time or stack them one behind another
because that gives you better
opportunities here finally of course
with all of this it either complyfully
or resistfully if you're gonna go go
hard because you know you're gonna get
it I don't really see any opportunities
in this particular one for really any
disarms that would have been very
effective and so don't kind of try to
play halves these games and this woman
really did not she she let them have
whatever it was they wanted she was very
calm she was very you know accommodating
to them gave them what they wanted I
can't get into this register I can't get
into that but here's the cigarettes
here's the stuff here's this here's that
and that compliance worked for her and
and what we find is is that fully
compliant subjects in a uh you know an
armed robbery are injured about 25
percent of the time in those armed
robberies when they're fully compliant
so you got about a 75 chance of making
it out of that without any injury and
that's that's pretty good odds as a
general rule uh but we also find that
actually that from a statistical
perspective if you respond and you're
armed yourself that chance of injury
goes down to about six percent from a
statistical perspective so you know
having the option to resist I think is
good so that if you get the opportunity
to resist and you have the option to
resist you can choose to do so and that
increases your your chances of not being
injured fairly significantly drops them
down about 75 percent your chance of
being injured which is pretty good but
it worked out well for this lady and
again she was compliant with them they
clearly were robbers here thankfully and
not uh murderers they kept their voices
down and kept it calm good thing it
worked out well here but make sure that
you're looking for your opportunities
and you can see even more of them here
to counter Ambush and make sure you've
got your tools on you so that you have
the option that when the opportunity
comes you know what your ghost signal is
you can take it and cover your asp
