Have you been watching USCCA videos? Take the quiz

What are 3 things you need to justify deadly force?

And what are 3 things you need in order to USE YOUR FIREARM in self defense?

I’ll probably pull up the real answers on Monday when I’m done with quarantining from COVID.

Good luck, have fun, and discuss!

I haven’t been watching them… but I’ve been taught that presence of these 3 criterias justify use of deadly force:

  • ability
  • opportunity
  • jeopardy

Tacos, Coke (not the woke beverage), and spiders.

A gun, bullets, and an avocado.

Right out of the mouth of Mas Ayoob, that is.

Ability, opportunity, actual jeopardy…with the first two referring specifically to serious bodily harm/death.

A thug in your sights, ammo in your gun, no witnesses

He was my indirect teacher :wink:
90% of self defence knowledge comes from him.

Did you know as a Washington State resident I am not able to watch USCCA videos as well as, be a member or obtain support. Not due to the USCCA but one certain government office that has said, NO! to the USCCA. Feel my pain? I am ready to move!

  1. Did you avoid or evade the situation?
  2. Did you try to de-escalate the situation and NOT instigate it to make it worse?
  3. Do you have no other choice but to defend yourself or family?

@Forensic_Wow (1) The threat has to be imminent, of great bodily harm and/or death, (2) De-escalate the situation, but if of no avail, and threat continues, (3) LAST RESORT, with no escape, and no retreat, no choice but the use of justified deadly force, what we call “SELF DEFENSE”. What is called in some States “JUSTIFIED HOMICIDE”. What an ugly !

Hardly so, Hells kitchen does not help enhance any culinary skills. It is entertaining! Chefs table on Netflix has good information.

Since obviously nobody wants to watch the video and answer the questions here they are.

In order to justify deadly force you need to prove your attacker had

  1. Intent
  2. A weapon
  3. And a delivery system.

In order to use your firearm you need.
Target Acquisition- Acquired a target
Target identification- you identified that target as the threat.
And target isolation- There’s nothing between you and the threat or around the threat that can get in the way of your incoming rounds.

I think that is the most important things we need to think about.
