i understand why somebody who lives in
an area that couldn't carry a firearm
might roll dirty but it can have
consequences

hi everyone welcome to today's lesson
here at active self protection i'm your
host as always john korea today's video
is a very interesting one it comes to us
from parana in brazil
magtec is the only pistol or rifle ammo
i use on the range and i recommend them
highly i've seen their manufacturing and
quality control first hand and it's
incredible which is why it always
performs reliably and accurately they
are operating at max capacity and
cranking out rounds for you to keep your
skills sharp pick up some magtech at
your local ammo retailer or get it
shipped fast at luckygunner.com
see these ladies kind of moseying over
to a car there is a gentleman in the
passenger front seat of this car um he
is apparently they call him an elderly
gentleman in the news stories that i've
linked in the description now watch from
the top left these two guys come kind of
ambling down the road as these ladies
are kind of you know moseying getting
into the car or whatever and what we're
going to see here pretty quick as i'm
sure you can expect is that these guys
are actually carjackers so they come up
with a couple of firearms and start
threatening these folks and so this
guy's gonna try to start getting in the
car he's like hey i want the keys or
whatever now watch the dude who's gonna
get taken out of the passenger seat
again an older gentleman's gonna go back
behind the the pillar there draw the
firearm that he is carrying and rolling
dirty with that's going to come into
play in a moment and start taking shots
at these guys his shots are effective
and one of them is going to run off and
take the asphalt temperature challenge
down the street they are still looking
for the second one now then none of the
good people here were harmed and this
guy's actions were considered
self-defense that said if you go read
the news story it was determined that
his firearm was not registered and he
did not have a license to own that
firearm and so he is going to be charged
with that which can lead to him being
imprisoned for several years in brazil
for simple possession of an unregistered
firearm let's think about lessons sticky
sticky legal stuff here that i think is
very important and interestingly enough
here actually this one coming out of
brazil is tougher laws than we find out
of california which kind of boggles my
mind let's think about lessons this is a
transitional space obviously outside in
this area where people come and go and
and i want you to be aware i don't mean
that you have to hustle hustle hustle
and be scared or anything like that but
just make it a a priority not to dawdle
listen get in the car get the doors
locked get the car running get the heck
out of there and and pay attention to
your world not again in a paranoid way
but just because you know that danger
exists and it can happen to you now we
know here once these guys start coming
their way that that bad things are
happening once they change vectors you
know something is up and either of these
ladies has an opportunity here and i do
think all good saints sober moral and
prudent people should be able to carry
firearms and have the best tools for
self-defense and and rolling dirty here
you know i would never recommend that
certainly when recommended in a public
uh venue like this but i get it i think
it should be legal for good people to do
that and these ladies should be armed as
well because they were the best defense
in this particular case now instead i
like that they kind of get away okay man
you want the car that's fine but i think
that she still had the keys in her hand
so she he's gonna grab the keys from her
all those things now let's think about
our defender here i love that he got out
of the car okay fine this guy's got the
drop on me great and then look at what
he does he goes and gets himself to a
place that he can safely draw his
firearm now that said notice he's facing
away from them as he's walking away this
is the kind of for instance where if
you're carrying in front of the hips
what we normally call appendix carry
this actually provides you a benefit in
concealment if instead you're facing the
bad guys then that behind the hip carry
can do that as well or blade away from
him or whatever so each one kind of has
its advantages in this particular case
you know having that gun carried up
front means you can draw it without them
being able to see you drawing it and
then he turns around and is going to get
his gun in this fight
and he's going to get hits on these guys
now i know some folks are going to ask
well wait a minute is that okay yeah the
answer to that is this is absolutely
morally uh it's perfectly okay legally
at least in the united states perfectly
okay as well in brazil even in the news
stories they said this was justifiable
self-defense from that action so so
recognize okay fine yes that is
justified actually they're in the middle
of a violent felony here which is a
carjacking again at gunpoint so that
said now let's talk about the
marksmanship issues here you need to be
first you know these guys are armed they
mean you deadly harm so you need to be
able to not just shoot but to actually
hit and hit things at some distances but
we are going to see here so your
marksmanship skills got to be built guys
and they can't just be built on youtube
you got to actually get to class get to
the range actually do some training and
and
manage your skills and watch it on the
timer and with accuracy so that you know
that you can make these hits now i said
earlier that you know again you've got
to be able to hit and hit at some
distance let's look at where our our
defender is here and look at where the
attackers are now i still think this is
all one motion here i don't think
they're out of the fight yet so i'm
totally okay with him continuing to
shoot in this particular instance but
notice that the closest of them is about
a car length and a half away so our
closest guy here is about 10 yards the
other guy's all the way across the
street so somewhere 15 to 20 yards so
when all people say well you know if i
shoot somebody beyond seven yards i'm
going to jail that's myth and i think
having some skills beyond that is
important also i think having the
highest capacity firearm that you can
have is important because again you got
multiple attackers here and people can
take a lot of shooting
now final thing here do i think this guy
should face charges for having an
unlicensed firearm and carrying it you
know without a permit or whatever first
of all i don't think a permit should be
required anywhere and i love the fact
that we're now up to as of today 24
states in the united states that don't
require the crown's permission in order
to carry defensive tools upon your
person in public and i think that more
should adopt that and and that is the
way of land also don't you know i'm
second amendment absolutist and i don't
think he should face charges with that
this is clearly a good person who made a
decision and a risk analysis that he
needed to carry a firearm even though it
was illegal and it turned out he did he
absolutely did need to have that firearm
that day and this is why even in some
places like california if you know in
justified defensive context you may not
get charged with anything if you do an
otherwise justifiable act and and and so
i think even that is a better way to do
things i think it should be legal all
over the world for people to defend
themselves to have the best tools to do
so this guy did and i don't think he
should face any charges for covering his
asp
