GREAT article! Big-time message about situational awareness. Thanks for posting that.

A crazy guy went into a Boston hospital doctor’s office and stabbed a doctor. An off-duty, armed security guard saw this and shot and killed the knife-wielding assailant. This terrible situation could have gotten much worse had no one been ready, willing and able to step up to save other innocents.

Train as if your life depends on it. It just may…

Mmmmm, I luv coffee. Coffee good.

Which is better for muggers, a bold blend or a medium?

I thought the situational awareness, and the use of the weapon at hand to take the initative away from the attacker, both fit well into the KM philosophy.

The author of blog has a bit more information about the incident here:

Also, the incident has inspired someone to come up with a Tactical Claymore Coffee Mug:

Ah coffee… is there anything it can’t do?
