Stephen Embrey.... I am reading the LAWS OF SELF DEFENSE by Andrew BRANCA now. Next is the book you mentioned. A life saving amount of knowledge in the book.

You explain things in such a clear and concise manner. Always calm and deliberate. I don’t think I have ever heard it done any better. Well done Mr Massad and I look forward to other such legal topics.

In 1985 I purchased my first handgun (A Taurus PT-92-Still have it). Shortly thereafter a good friend of mine gave me a small paperback book about the general ideas and theories regarding self-defense and lethal force. I still have that book and have re-read it several times over the years. (Along with purchasing several copies for gifts to friends.) That book is "In The Gravest Extreme" by Massad Ayoob. I can think of nothing else that has had a greater impact on my outlook as to defending myself and others. While I am absolutely opposed to any form of gun control, I could agree to that being mandatory reading prior to anyone purchasing their first firearm!

@Kenneth Wilson Knife attacks are very fast and deadly, but still, if I turn around and run while drawing, my glock 19 loaded with jacketed hollowpoint would completely destroy you. But that's if I'm not in a small room. And you're getting filled with lead even if my throat is gushing blood, you know? It's kind of a suicide attack unless you're REALLY good, or the defender is either poorly trained or just completely caught off guard. No one should have to go through that kind of shit, though

I think people are missing something in this equation, the 21 foot rule is if the attacker has a knife that is drawn vs someone who has a gun that is holstered. If your gun is unholstered and the assailants knife is drawn, the person with the handgun has the advantage.

Most people don't understand how fast or deadly any attack can be. A lot of range trained guys like to talk about what they can/can't do with a firearm, the same way academics like to talk about how real/unreal the danger a subject is in, the reality of the situation is unless you're trained to hold off you're attacker while you draw, that pistol on your hip is largely decorative, and if you're the one with the gun you're likely going to be considered the "bad guy" by a vocal majority.

When a man gets in 6 feet of you with a knife ,he now has equal chance to kill you with a knife as you have with a gun to kill him. Deadly force is not shooting him in the leg. You should not own a gun if you say this.

As a former LEO let me add that if the Police persist in demanding a statement simply grab your chest area and tell them you are feeling a tightness and pain and need to go to the hospital NOW and want an ambulance NOW!! No Police Officer who values their job / pension will deny your going to the hospital for a possible heart attack. This buys you time to call or have someone call your attorney (IF you carry you better have an attorneys phone number) and guide you through your statement.

A couple weeks back I was attacked by a drunk. He apparently thought I was someone else and grabbed me by my throat. I lifted him off the ground and then threw him to the ground. I do carry 24/7 but I felt he was done after him hitting the ground. I maintained eye contact while walking away. I did have a second of thought of pulling my 357 magnum and shooting him in the face but I did not want to have a death on my heart. I will use deadly force if no other option is available. I pray he gets help for his alcoholism issues.

Yet another fantastic video. It really does behoove all of us who carry to realize the tremendous importance of the phrase, "With power comes responsibility." Likewise, something I also say when I'm teaching, is that with knowledge comes responsibility. I spent 22 years in the military, and one thing we were always taught was situational awareness. Quite often, there are visual clues that we can pick up on that indicate bad intentions by others. Not always, of course, but a keen eye can catch things that seem a bit off. At that point, it's best to get out of the situation immediately, if possible. When it's not possible, this triangle that Massad shares with us should be running through our minds if we find ourselves in a situation where we may have to draw our weapon. I honestly hope I never have to draw my weapon on another person, but it's ignorant to think life is a bed of roses with no people around with bad intentions. Be safe. Be observant. Be vigilant. Thanks again, Massad.

I paid less than $200 for a legal protection insurance policy just in case I'm ever in a situation when I may need to defend myself or my loved ones. Why can't everybody insure themselves and spread the cost of defense among ourselves? After all, the chances of any one of us having to use our handguns to defend ourselves is so small, the chance will probably never happen in our lifetimes. So why not purchase an insurance policy that will pay ALL of your legal fees in the unlikely event that you will need this insurance? You won't go broke for a few hundred bucks if you buy insurance for something you should never likely need to use. IMHO of course.

I am a CPL instructor in Michigan, and also a former Neighborhood Watch Organizer as well as a US Army Veteran. Here is my take on the Trayvon Martin vs Zimmerman situation: Zimmerman was wrong for even exiting his vehicle. His duty as a neighborhood watchman is to observe and report. If he had never exited gis vehicle, contacted the police, and only kept his distance, he would not have ever been in the situation that would necessitate lethal force. In fact, according to the video that was released recently: *"An auto insurance claim is less expensive than a lawyer on retainer"* Zimmerman was a trigger happy numb skull who should be as far away from a gun, than the earth is from the sun.

Mr. Ayoob, I have watched your channel with Wilson Combat for a long time now, and had intended to write you regarding my background with your reputation. In the early 80 s, I spent three years in College in Davenport, IA. Upon moving to North Carolina I took up shooting, and had some good teachers. I read lots of books and magazines. I came upon your regular articles in one of the top gun magazines. I was particularly impressed by your analysis of a shootout between two groups, which in conclusion you revealed as the gunfight at the OK corral. To the point, in following months I began reading your description of an officer using his weapon to defend himself from a dangerous attacker, who was trying to take his service gun, and having to shoot the attacker, and the backlash of charges leveled at this officer. Imagine my surprise, when I saw the name Off. Randy Willems of Davenport. His wife worked as manager assistant with mine, and they were friends with whom we cooked out together at times. I was shocked, but amazed by your involvement in two trials which restored his job and reputation, even though it came at a high cost for Randy. And interestingly enough, I find myself adding this part which involves myself being attacked and threatened to be killed, and in self defense, finding Myself being charged due to the assailant lying about the situation, and bizarre handling by police. Having faced life threatening assault is traumatic enough, now facing court with charges of my own. It's real, and is happening to me.

Excellent presentation, sir. Thank you for taking the time and effort to present this information.

Great job Mass as always. Thanks for sharing this important information!

Nothing in my 6 years of firearms training really prepared me for a 1974 gunfight w/three armed robbery suspects (you authored an article in a 2016 edition of American Handgunner). Our training had mostly been bulls eye w/our revolvers, and putting the empty brass in your pocket when reloading. All our range training changed after my experience that night and we began to learn to fight w/a gun, as opposed to get a good bully eye score and move on.That said, if you’re going to get formal training find an instructor that will teach you how to fight w/your gun.

I stood there, yelling at him to go away, and when he got arms distance from me I punched him three times in his face. the man was twice my size and I was very concerned for not only my own safety, but that of others as well. I let him get up and he called the police I was charged with Mayhem and assault with a deadly weapon I plead not guilty and waited in jail for 5 months.the judge suggested that I not testify on my own behalf so I did as he suggested and did not testify they refused my character witness and used my mother without my permission or consent they instructed my mother not to say anything about the fact I've never been arrested before and that I've been a security guard for the past 7 years I was convicted of assault inflicting great bodily injury and sentenced to two years in State Prison I did 9 months and I just got out on good behavior and I still don't see why they would want to ruin my life over this when I was just trying to help.

Succinct, accurate and sensible, even for New Zealand where I live. Here, self defence is a bit harder to prove if you use a gun because the law says that if you are not at the range, then the gun must be locked away, unless it is under your immediate supervision 'within the curtilage of your dwelling'. The police don't like that bit because it gives us the freedom, in fact, to be armed to some extent at home, and even if one's use of a firearm is justified self defence and the court agrees, they will try to prosecute under the storage laws and take your guns and licence. They even tried it in the case of an incident in a gun shop.....that one got thrown out....

Every video Massad Ayoob does is packed full of great knowledge

Well done Mr. Ayoob. Articulate and concise.

Great info! I just learn something very valuable from this video about self defense and WHEN can you use deadly force. Only when your life is hanging in the balance between just barely breathing to completely dead.

The police have one difference between them, and everyone else. The police, by their duty, are REQUIRED to seek out, and confront malefactors and bring them to justice. Turning a blind eye, or walking away, is NOT on the menu of options a cop has. We private citizens, on the other hand, CAN walk away or turn a blind eye, in order to keep ourselves out of a dangerous situation. We are under NO duty to 'confront' the danger. We can just leave it alone. What goes with that... is a lot more training on a police officer's part, and a requirement to follow the procedures put forth by their agency, and by the government of the state they're certified in. The rules that apply to police use of force, include reviews of deadly force encounters, not just by the prosecutors and grand juries... but also by the police department's internal affairs unit and police administration. A cop who legally shoots a suspect and is found harmless by the justice system, CAN still LOSE THEIR JOB, or be subject to OTHER disciplinary action by their own police department, if it is found that the officer didn't follow proper procedures. Not to mention, they CAN be sued to the hilt... By the time all is said and done in an officer involved shooting situation... the police officer endures MORE and MORE IN DEPTH REVIEWS of their actions in those harrowing moments of violence... than ANY citizen who has to shoot someone, is.

Well said. One of the most effective means in handling the aftermath of a shooting is to be armed with this information. Great video!

Thank you sir! Well explained.

This man is a national treasure. Very informative

As a retired Phoenix Police Officer, outstanding in formation. Thank you

Excellent and Outstanding; Thank You!

Your ability to explain these possible scenarios is excellent. Thanks for your help to make us better informed and to keep ourselves and others safe. I would recommend that every new gun owner watch your videos in addition to training with an instructor or at the range.

I learned in Universal Kempo just how fast someone can cover 15 feet with a knife in their hand. I'm a disabled veteran and my disabilities will no longer allow me to fight. Thus, I must carry. Thanks for this video - if I learned anything, it reemphasized that there's allot more to this than just carrying a gun. Once the lead leaves the barrel you can't take it back. Training is key to staying out of prison for defending yourself.

Now I know where all the guns, ammo and reloading gear went. Ayoob’s house.

I was blessed with Massad's book before going armed security

Thank you for your hard work at keeping us informed and education that you provided us all

Good stuff (again), Mas'.

With all these far left DAs & "special prosecutors" I feel like we're losing the basic right to self defense. WTF is going on.

It’s worse than that, they are infringing on first amendment rights, the second amendment and meddling in our elections. . I’m beginning to think treason and perjury are not even crimes anymore! Why isn’t Brennan, and Comey facing a firing squad? Why arent McCabe, strzok, and page facing life in prison for their treason?!

Hey TLW sometimes a guy can put a real bad hurting on you with their hands. Especially when he knows how to use em. Can you pick out who knows how to use their hands better than you???? You think it stops after he knocks you out cold???? Think again pal. Some people have to get shot to get stopped!!!! But I'm sure your real tough guy!!!!!!

He is so informative and calms me down

Thank You, Sir. That was an excellent description of what is required to use lethal force. I'm a former Deputy Sheriff in Texas. This is what the general public needs to know. As a young Peace Officer, this realization of the presence of lethal force, in any encounter with a citizen, was the single, most important thought in the back of my mind. Observe, direct, and command, in a criminal contact. I would apologize later, if I seemed rude to anyone whom I found to be, shall I say, in the wrong place at the wrong time. I was sworn to my duty, and took that duty very seriously. Thank You again, Sir.

Massad is my spirit animal. I wish I could hear him read a Dr Seuss book in that mono toned baritone demeanor

Good info!

Thank you...You are an asset to American Self-Defense!

Well done. Thank you Sir

Absolutely no BS in this man.

When a wise man tells what you need to know, you listen!!!!!

Thank you, sir!

Thank You for the Brilliant Analysis and Advice!!!

Thanks I needed to hear this so should any rational gun owner and especially the irrational ones

I read your book "dead force" excellent. Thank you for writing it!

Massad please please come to Texas you are absolutely the greatest person ever you know everything I feel so much better carrying a firearm because of you and your knowledge to me

Outstanding, highly educational !
