I have done a good deal of civilian self-defense training. All the instructors deal with the force continuum concept and when various instrumentalities and options are to be used. Legal aspects are discussed. Various books by experts also discuss these options.
It is also important for the serious student to engage in some FOF training. That will clear up mythologies and opinions that are not well founded.
At the NTI, folks with very lethal gear also have OC - that's an 'opinion' for you.
