Frank Sharp Jr with Fortress Defense Consultants joins me for a discussion on fighting and defending yourself during these crazy times.

Today:

I invited Frank Sharp Jr from Fortress Defense Consultants to join me to talk about the “great boogaloo” sort of…

We laugh about the term and the thought of an all out Civial War in the US. The country is just too big and diverse for another actual Civil War that has two sides squaring off and going at it.  If the fighting kicks off, it is going to be local.  You will be fighting amongst your families, friends, and neighbors.

Frank Sharp Jr and I talk about how bad that could be for the country and how a lot of people just don’t understand what it is going to be like.  It isn’t going to be go fight for a couple hours and then Netflix and chill for the rest of the night.  It is going to be bloody and horrible in the places that have fighting.

If the fighting kicks off, we could lose all sanitation, trash disposal, running water, and electricity in our country.  Most of the people talking about fighting don’t have a plan for this.  These are the things that the movies don’t show you.

Frank Sharp Jr and I come to the conclusion that most of the knowledge that people have about medicine, law enforcement, and fighting come from TV and movies.  And most of those shows are completely wrong. 

For those of you with training, you laugh at the fighting just like I do.  So don’t get your knowledge from the movies when it comes to how war is going to be.  After being in combat I can tell you that Saving Private Ryan and Blackhawk Down are the only movies that even come close.  And only parts of those movies are correct.

Next week Frank and I will continue the discussion about kitting up and going to fight and why it isn’t a good idea, and more importantly we hope that it doesn’t happen. 

I’ll be taking Frank’s course in January.  Here is a link to the class.  If you want to just be on the range training with me, this is a good class to take.  If you want to get training from me check out my courses here.
