Tactics Always Come First - Carl Cestari ©
I always try reduce any possible "situation" to its base common denominator.
Then work from there.
An assailant MUST "get" to you.
How does this happen ?
Only one of two ways: he makes the "approach", i.e., covers distance to get to you, or you give him the opportunity by allowing yourself to get close to him, i.e., passing to close to places of concealment, entering an unknown or confined area without assessment or unaware.
Realizing these TWO possibilities allows for you to plan a strategy, a tactical way of living that affords the "best" or most reliable mode of operation.
Still, always expecting the unexpected !
Knowing the potential danger (a known rapist/assailant in the area), well, the
old adage, "forewarned is forearmed" really applies. Know what I mean?
Mindset: Here's one that will bother some. Some authorities like to say that you should become your own "police officer" or become your own "bodyguard".
Well, try this attitude : Become your own "HITMAN" or should I say "HITPERSON".
Sounds a little melodramatic, huh ?
Think about this for a second.
Abject ruthless brutality, single minded ferocity, total commitment to your "objective".
BELIEVE that no matter how "bad" your assailant THINKS he is, YOU are IN REALITY HIS WORST
NIGHTMARE. Here it is in a nutshell. Unless you kill me outright, you're gonna wish to god or the devil you were never F#$%$ING BORN !
Some who have heard me say this respond: " That's INSANE ".
I reply, "YEP".
Is a violent, potentially deadly criminal assault NOT INSANITY ?
It's sure as hell ain't "civil".
So fight fire with MORE INTENSE FIRE ! You're NOT a victim, NOT PREY, NO, YOU'RE A PREDATOR FROM HELL !
You know all that rage and anger inside you ?
Turn it into an IRON SPEAR and RAM it down his throat.
