i do have to point something out....
i have read a lot of people talk about center mass incorrectly.
Center of Mass = just that, the center of whatever mass is in front of you.
Center of Mass is not the thoracic cavity. (but it can be)
if all he had to shoot at was a leg and arm, then the center of mass is the biggest target available of those 2 limbs.
advice?
here is my advice. read robert_de_niro's story with an open mind. his result was the best possible outcome you can hope for; no on died, the badguys got caught, and he didnt suffer any consequences for defending himself. there are a lot of "experts" out there who would say otherwise, and comense to pick appart his story and point out "what he did wrong"... but the fact still stands; the outcome was great. its easy to point a finger, but remember, you always have three pointing right back at you.
there is a lot of bull that gets tossed around (especially on the internet). just make sure to lookout for #1 and be sure not to step in #2.
Very good post.
