Steel Courage
Moderators move this if needed.
After reading several "it happend to me" stories in magazines and online I have noticed a trend of "steel courage". What I mean is that people losing common sense because they are carrying; I will elaborate.
EX: I was walking to the store and noticed a questionable group of youths down the street, the same street I usually take to the store. I could have taken a slightly more scenic route and avoided the group all together but I decided not to because (insert foolish reason here). As I walked by the group of youths began slandering me and threatning me. I got nervous and reached for my (insert brand here).
Finish the scenario how ever you prefer. My point is that if this fictional individual is not carrying they would have easily taken the high road. I think its a foolish idea to have this mentality. You would be placing yourself in tactical disadvantage in court. Is it just me but has anyone else read some stories where "steel courage" caused the ccw holder to make poor decisions?
