After Zimmerman: Lessons for a Citizen Carrier

"Such is the culture of restraint among responsible gun owners that three rules of gun engagement in particular seem to predominate:

1. Stay away from any high risk location unless you must be there. If you find yourself in such a place, summon full mental and sensory alertness until you can get away.

2. Shooting at an attacker is a last resort. Do anything reasonable to avoid it: escape, hide or barricade if at all possible.

3. Don't chase trouble."
