as a self-defender if you have
consciousness left you have to stay in
the fight and protect yourself
[Music]
thank you for joining us on today's
active self protection lesson i'm your
host
john korea today's video comes to us
from mexico
today's video is brought to us by
firearms legal protection firearms legal
protection is a legal defense program
for lawful gun owners with the 24 7
emergency hotline
and plans designed specifically for
self-defenders
they are offering a discount on their
plan to ask fans so hit the link in the
description for that
in the pickup truck are a couple of cops
on duty have eating i
have been eating at this taco shop and
you see out of the suv in the right
you're gonna see a bunch of dudes from
the local drug cartel
that are gonna jump out and decide that
they're gonna go after these cops with
rifles and then you're gonna see
that these cops hit the deck get the
heck out of the car in a big fat hurry
one is gonna go over behind the engine
block of this white car the other one
behind the engine block of the pickup
truck
are one of the white car runs off and
now our officer at the pickup truck
actually goes back inside the truck
because he wants his rifle as well and
he is going to start having at these
guys
to go read the new story linked into the
description there is
uh absolutely uh a whole bunch of
information about this says both these
cops were critically wounded
but notice that he's staying in the
fight staying after these guys we
actually have a second angle of this one
because he was shooting at that suv but
what i want you to see out of the second
angle out of this one is
our attackers go running off now then uh
the
the suv comes back around for them and
they start to try to get back in the suv
they came in on
but he bounces out of there when they
start shooting at him and they run off
and that friends is where this one ends
incredible heart does lead me to a
question that i want to ask you do you
have emergency medical training to stop
someone having major bleeding
is that something you've prioritized i
certainly have took a class earlier this
year i have several stop the bleed
classes under my belt
and i recommend it highly so to you
let's sound off and talk about it
lessons inbound everyone first things
first man when you are a police officer
in mexico you got a big target on your
chest
the war that is going on there is
literally
insane we've seen actual battles fought
so if you're in that line of work and
i think even somewhat here in the united
states we're starting to see some pretty
incredible stuff done make sure that
you're paying attention to your world
that your spiritual fitness is strong
every day
and that you are seeing what's going on
in your world because you will need it
on that day so these guys are just
backing out it's a normal day they don't
really have any reason to see anything
amiss but paying attention makes a lot
of sense because watch now again these
guys are showing up
and the first inclination they really
have is rifle bullets going
through their front windshield now
recognize this the bad guys always get
to set the time and place of the attack
paying attention can give you a little
bit of notice maybe again if they were
really kind of seeing what's going on in
the world
maybe if they backed their pickup into
where they were getting lunch and
whatever
they might have had some more
opportunity and and maybe seen that guy
get out of the car with the rifle and
then been able to do some other stuff
at any rate once it goes once the bad
guy kicks things off you got to respond
and maybe would have been a better
solution here
to continue to hit that reverse and get
out of there with the car but if the car
is not functional or you can't use it
it is a coffin so get the heck out i do
notice that the first officer
bails and gets low i think that is an
excellent strategy somebody shooting in
the cab of your car
is to get as low as you can to get out
of that car as fast as you can now
here's where you need to know the
difference between cover and concealment
because these guys are shooting rifle
bullets at you and
recognize that you want to get behind
something that'll stop bullets when
dudes are shooting rifles at you
and what i notice here is that they both
do a pretty good job of getting behind
cover they use the engine block here
and the wheel wells to try to get where
they they can't get shot by these guys
anymore
very very wise because they are both
badly wounded
critically wounded in fact but they are
still fighting that takes incredible
emotional fitness
doing things in order to get moving
doing things in order to keep making
yourself safer
even when you're badly hurt you've still
got awareness you've still got something
in the fight you got to stay
mentally present and these guys did a
great job of that
of continuing to take steps to make
themselves safer so that's an emotional
fitness component that i think we can
learn from this and really work on now
these guys start running off
so our dude's gonna go get in the fight
even badly wounded he says no i got
dudes that are shooting at me with a
rifle i need my rifle as well so yes
being
up on your rifle skills in this kind of
situation very important now of course
this is the suv that dropped those guys
off so it comes back around to him and
he starts putting rounds on him
now notice here we're talking about
distances that with a pistol would be
very difficult but with a a rifle not
nearly as difficult i still might
recommend rather than kind of
standing out you know in the open like
this that he try to use the truck in
some way might be able to
brace against it get better shots on
target use those kinds of things have at
least a little bit of concealment and
those kinds of things kind of hard to
say when people are shooting rifles at
you though right
so notice as well that uh the dude is
run off look at the far
right you can see that our bad guy did
not get in the car
and he is the one who is the bigger
threat so i get it that our officer is
kind of focused and paying attention to
the truck
but recognize where the actual threat is
coming from is the guy with the rifle in
his hand so rather than putting more
rounds on the truck
i would recommend to try to put some
rounds on the guy that's got a rifle
that has been shooting at you and your
partner instead
that said it's difficult because you
can't see everything all at once povo
vision means you can only see one thing
at a time
he might have thought that guy was still
in there or whatever notice here
that shot went up and it went high
and so this is a you know again a
standing offhand shot
very difficult but it's also a place
where this is why you want to be
have a rifle that has a lot of high
capacity and you want to have the
ability to put shots on target
but make sure you are you remember
you're responsible for every shot
that leaves the muzzle of your rifle i
think these officers were put in a
really bad spot
i think that they showed excellent
emotional fitness i hope they recover
fully
and i hope they catch these bad guys who
tried to murder him
