Restaurant Etiquette\">Ep. 9 Should I Shoot? Road Rage<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hopefully, if you are reading this, you already know how to behave in a restaurant. What I\u2019m talking about in terms of etiquette is what your plan is when something goes bad while you are seated in a booth or table with your family. By going bad, I\u2019m talking a take-over type robbery where the suspect or suspects want more than just the cash in the register \u2013 they want the patrons\u2019 watches, wallets, and everything else. On the extreme end of bad, a nut off his meds decides to start shooting patrons or hacking on them with a machete. If you are thinking you only go to restaurants in nice neighborhoods and this won\u2019t happen to you, my mission here is to get you thinking about what would happen if it did and what your plans are if it does.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Basics <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Start with the basic decision of where you should sit. You might not have your choice of table, but you can make sure you sit where you can get the best view of the front door and as much of the establishment as possible. I know it sounds clich\u00e9, but sitting so you don\u2019t have your back to the door isn\u2019t just a movie line, it\u2019s common sense. If you can see the bad guys out the front window of the establishment gearing up, you might have time to evacuate your family before they make it inside. Trust your gut. If something looks wrong, get out and reevaluate.<\/p>\n<p>Do you know where the exits are? Sure, there are signs over the doors, but can you get out through the kitchen if need be? Where is your closest exit and a backup if the first option is blocked? Can you throw a chair through a window? If you need your concealed weapon, can you draw it from the position in which you\u2019re seated? This one can be practiced in the comforts of your own home and done with live-fire on the range. Have you talked to you family about what to do if \u201cX\u201d happens? I trained my kids when they were very little to follow my instructions without hesitation. If I told them to get down on the floor, they did it.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Plans<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you find yourself in the middle of the take-over robbery, what\u2019s your plan of action or non-action? If all the robbers want is my money, my old beat-up G Shock and the engagement ring I gave my wife are theirs \u2014 insurance will cover the loss.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s the plan if it goes sideways and they start shooting people? I\u2019ve said it before: I can\u2019t tell you what to do. I can, however, ask whether you\u2019ve practiced drawing and shooting from the seated position so you know what your capabilities and limitations are? Are you prepared to take the shot? Can you safely evacuate your family from the building? Or is the floor under the table the best option so you can focus on employing deadly force?<\/p>\n<p>I highly recommend force-on-force training with Simunitions if you can find a facility at which to train. I\u2019ve learned more from running scenarios based on \u201cwhat if?\u201d questions and getting stung by paint pellets than any other form of training.<\/p>\n<p>Summertime is here and that means a lot of family time and hopefully some vacation time, too. Bad things can happen anywhere at any time, not just restaurants. Any place people congregate is just as much a target as a secluded parking garage or back alley. They both have their dangers, and we should prepare for every environment we might possibly find ourselves in. If the motivation is robbery, the more victims in one place, the higher the yield. If the motivation is mass murder, we already know anywhere from schools to malls can be targets.<\/p>\n<p>Having thought through as many scenarios as possible makes you that much more prepared. Remember the primary mission is to keep your family safe.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more critical information on the use of deadly force and other firearms and self-defense topics, visit <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uscca.com\/GunsAmerica\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ep-10-shoot-restaurant\" title=\"Ep. 10 Should I Shoot?
