  Read and heed
  RULES FOR A GUN, KNIFE, BASEBALL BAT OR FIST FIGHT:

  1. Forget about knives, bats and fists. Bring a gun. Preferably,
  bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns. Bring
  four times the ammunition you think you could ever need.
  
  2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammunition is
  cheap - life is expensive. If you shoot inside, buckshot is your friend.
  A new wall is cheap - funerals are expensive
  
  3. Only hits count. The only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss.

  4. If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast
  enough or using cover correctly.
  
  5. Move away from your attacker and go to cover. Distance is your
  friend. (Bulletproof cover and diagonal or lateral movement are
  preferred.)
  
  6. If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a semi or
  full-automatic long gun and a friend with a long gun.
  
  7. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance,
  or tactics. They will only remember who lived.
  
  8. If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading,
  and running. Yell "Fire!" Why "Fire"? Cops will come with the Fire
  Department, sirens often scare off the bad guys, or at least cause then
  to lose concentration and will.... and who is going to summon help if
  you yell "Intruder," "Glock" or "Winchester?"
  
  9. Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more
  dependent on "pucker factor" than the inherent accuracy of the gun.
  
  10. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should
  have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.
  
  11. Stretch the rules. Always win. The only unfair fight is the one
  you lose.
  
  12. Have a plan.
  
  13. Have a back-up plan, because the first one won't work. "No
  battle plan ever survives 10 seconds past first contact with an enemy."
  
  14. Use cover or concealment as much as possible, but remember,
  sheetrock walls and the like stop nothing but your pulse when bullets
  tear through them.
  
  15. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
  
  16. Don't drop your guard.
  
  17. Always tactical load and threat scan 360 degrees. Practice
  reloading one-handed and off-hand shooting. That's how you live if hit
  in your "good" side.
  
  18. Watch their hands. Hands kill. Smiles, frowns and other facial
  expressions don't (In God we trust. Everyone else keep your hands where
  I can see them.)
  
  19. Decide NOW to always be aggressive ENOUGH, quickly ENOUGH.
  
  20. The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get.
  
  21. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone
  you meet if necessary, because they may want to kill you.
  
  22. Be courteous to everyone, overly friendly to no one.
  
  23. Your number one option for personal security is a lifelong
  commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
  
  24. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun, the caliber of which
  does not start with anything smaller than "4".
  
  25. Use a gun that works EVERY TIME. "All skill is in vain when an
  Angel blows the powder from the flintlock of your musket." At a practice
  session, throw you gun into the mud, then make sure it still works. You
  can clean it later.
  
  26. Practice shooting in the dark, with someone shouting at you,
  when out of breath, etc.
  
  27. Regardless of whether justified of not, you will feel sad about
  killing another human being. It is better to be sad than to be room
  temperature.
  
  28. The only thing you EVER say afterwards is, "He said he was going
  to kill me. I believed him.

  I'm sorry, Officer, but I'm very upset now. I can't say
  anything more. Please speak with my attorney."
  

  Finally, Rules For Un-armed Combat:
  
  1: Never be unarmed.

  Thank you, brother, for your reference. Made me blush like a schoolgirl. I have a feeling DOJ will have a long relationship with RPD. It was a great place work and a target-rich environment.

  The Final Inspection

  The warrior stood and faced God,
  Which will always come to pass,
  He hoped his shoes were shining,
  Just as brightly as his brass.

  “Step forward now, old warrior,
  How shall I deal with you?
  Have you always turned the other cheek?
  To my church have you been true?”

  The warrior squared his shoulders and
  Said, “No, Lord, I guess I ain’t,
  ‘Cause those of us who carry guns
  Can’t always be saint.

  “I’ve had to work most Sundays,
  And at times my talk was tough,
  And sometimes I’ve been violent,
  ‘Cause the world is awfully rough.

  “But, I never took a penny
  That wasn’t mine to keep.
  Though I worked a lot of overtime
  When the bills got just too steep,

  “And I never passed a cry for help,
  Though at times I shook with fear,
  And sometimes, God forgive me,
  I’ve wept unmanly tears.

  “I know I don’t deserve a place
  Among the people here,
  They never wanted me around
  Except to calm their fears.

  “If you’ve a place for me here, Lord,
  It needn’t be so grand. In life
  I didn’t expect nor need too much,
  So if you don’t, I’ll understand.”

  There was a silence all around the throne,
  Where the saints had often trod,
  As the warrior stood quietly.
  For the judgment of his God.

  “Step forward now, my warrior,
  You’ve born your burdens well,
  Walk peacefully on Heaven’s streets,
  You’ve done your time in Hell.”
