I agree with the above.

However, I don't believe in organized watch programs and therefore would most likely NOT participate in one unless we had a Watts riot scenario or similar situation going on.

That's good to hear. I would say that is a reflection of good CHL training that has an emphasis on not being in situations that could escalate into something else. I believe in stand your ground, but I do not believe in pursuit and confront. If other states, like perhaps FL, had better training programs, then we wouldn't have this current circus that is going on, IMO.
