FRANCE TRAIN ATTACK: AMERICANS HAILED AS HEROES, GUNMAN “HAD TIES TO ISIL”

The Quick Take Home Lessons For You:

1) Evil people exist in your world.  Know this before the bad men visit you.  Develop a mindset that will enable you to defend yourself and your family.

2) “Safe” places make great targets for the bad people of the world.  Thus far, mass transit has proven to be a safe way to travel, but a difficult way to secure from the threat of bad men.

3) Audaces Fortuna Iuvat—Fortune Favors The Bold.  The 3 Americans and British citizen took immediate action.  They didn’t have time to plan or work out details.  The only “instruction” was “Go get him” and the heroes rolled out.  Apparently the terrorist’s rifle malfunctioned, but he had other weapons.  The bold action by the good guys stacked the “good luck” in their favor.

4) “Everybody just started beating on the guy while Spencer held the choke hold, until he went unconscious at that point. People started to restrain him.”—US Army Reservist and one of the heroes, Alek Skarlatos.  Learn how to properly apply a choke hold.  There are two types of “choke” holds, one interrupts a person’s ability to breath and can be lethal and one interrupts blood flow and is non-lethal when done properly.  Both have been used successfully by ordinary people to end violent attacks in numerous real-life situations.

5) The heroes of the above story are Sheepdogs.  They protected the Sheep (all the people who were nearby, but took no action) from the Wolf (the terrorist).  Sheepdogs, unfortunately, cannot be everywhere.  You may have to become a Sheepdog.  We are always looking for a few good men and women to join our ranks.  For more information on the topic read: Are You A Sheep or A Sheepdog Part 1,  Are You A Sheep Or a Sheepdog? Part II: 8 Reasons You’re Hardwired For Sheepness and Are You A Sheep Or A Sheepdog? Part III: Your Roadmap To Becoming A Sheepdog
