Re: I saw this on another forum.

The one questionable piece of advice I see, is to run away from an attack. I'm assuming he intends this advice for people who are physically capable of running, and are by themselves, so with that:

1. How do you know the person you're running from isn't faster than you? Now you've turned your back and are at a tactical disadvantage.
2. If you've allowed yourself to get into a situation where a confrontation or attack is likely, how do you know he doesn't have accomplices behind you in the direction you're going to run?
3. Especially at night, and of course, depending on where you are, running risks tripping or falling, another tactical disadvantage.
4. Seems like, depending on how secure your carry is, running also risks losing your weapon. I'm pretty confident my Serpa holster will retain my weapon while running, but I don't have that kind of retention for every gun I carry.
