I posted this message too late on another board as a follow-up to a thread I had created earlier, but received no input (I figure the topic had been bumped off the recent list and wasn't read by too many people.). So I'm posting it again for you to read...
+++++
Is there a clear and concise set of rules that you, as a permit holder, should live by?... sort of a Jeff Cooper appendix for CCW licensees?
Tentatively, I've come up with the following list:
1) Evil exists.
2) You may have to face it---more likely than not, when you least expect it.
3) Never take safety for granted.
4) All strangers are dangerous until proven otherwise.
5) Wherever you go, always look for the best means of escape; or a place where, if you can't, you can at least shield yourself.
6) Always know exactly where you are. You---or someone else---may have to call the cops and an ambulance.
and, although I hesitate to add it for the reason that it may remove spontaneity from my life:
7) Live each day as though it could be your last.
Please improve, reorganize, add, or subtract from it as you see fit.
