One is most certainly to be lauded for PREVENTING a crime. However, once it is over, and the BG is running off with the purse, being a good witness is the prudent thing to do for a Citizen, armed or not.

If I or another Trainer suggest otherwise, WE could get dragged into court to defend our training and everything we own. The legal term is Vicarious Liability. It means we may be held responsible for your doing something stupid if I did not give an advisory of the unwarranted action.

Priority One. SELF (if you die trying to prevent harm to ONE person, how many others could be lost? Depending on your resolve, there are exceptions)

Priority Two. OTHER OFFICERS OR CO WORKERS (you might need help protecting others)

Priority Three. UNINVOLVED BYSTANDERS (these folks must be protected by your actions from Priority Four, but must NOT be harmed by your actions)

Priority Four. INVOLVED PERSONS (low folks on the totem pole, but they should be kept from harm if possible)

Priority Five. MATERIAL OBJECTS (if one through four can be fulfilled, THEN AND ONLY THEN worry about material objects)

Nothing else can be successfully defended in court.

Read Glockmeister's last post AGAIN. It is the Trainer's DUTY to train in compliance of criminal and civil law.

Even a sworn LEO does not have a legal obligation to protect anyone, unless he is detailed for that specific purpose.
