This is especially true because now I am married, and my wife’s safety is the single most important thing to me. So if being “grey,” is the way to go, if not looking like a threat is the best way to ensure A.) her safety, and B.) my ability to not be the first target so that I have the ability to protect her and others around me, then I am OK with that.

During my time in law enforcement, one of the key bits of wisdom repeated constantly by senior officers and trainers was "do not underestimate people". The majority of guys I spoke with said their most vicious and dangerous perps were not the big hulking meat heads but the guys you wouldn't expect, many times smaller or skinnier than the officers they're fighting. Society still obsesses over size and thinks that merely being big is the end all and be all. I'm a short guy so I'm always underestimated. I gained a reputation in the police academy and after as being a little beast so my peers knew of my ability but in public, people see me as a short, slightly chubby Latino.

I never block my hearing with headphones, I'm always on the move in a get-in-and-get-out manner when I'm out and about, and I don't stop for anyone! Triple threat personal alarm, small can of hairspray, and I keep my handbag heavy enough to give a solid crack should the need arise. I also have an extremely heavy six wheel powerchair and that thing is a behemoth of a weapon, as some random opportunist found out one day two years ago. I was outside the pub having a smoke after my dinner (Sunday roasts at the Queen's Head will leave you full for a year), and I didn't realise there were a couple of students standing behind my chair, staring down my top. A good man stopped his car and his wife shouted out of the passenger window that one of the students had a phone in his hand. Well, Behemoth got switched on, speed jacked up to its 10mph and straight into reverse I went. I kept smoking my cigarette as I reversed into him three times. Job done.

Man I fully understand exactly what you just said. 8th grade, I’m pretty athletic,think I know everything,not outgoing but thought “ thought” I could handle most situations. I walk into history class, Mr. Dempsey, quiet red headed teacher with a damn good beard. I had him figured out. So he asked what we knew about Poland. I raise my hand and give my best smart assed joke..” the Germans took over Poland so easily because they marched in backwards and told the pollocks they were retreating”. He smiled, walked over calmly, and said that in his 2nd...2nd tour in 1968 that a new guy said a similar joke before an operation in the Mekong Delta.A veteran polish guy in the platoon beat him within an inch of his life.He missed the next 2 ops.I was stunned, didn’t even know that Mr. Dempsey had been in Vietnam.When class let out I happened to be the final student going out the door. He looked up and asked me if he knew what his heritage was. I responded that it must be Irish or Scottish. He said these exact words to me...” no son, I was the only pollock in the platoon”. I didn’t speak out of line again.

I went to community college for my first two years. There was an average height nondescript slightly rotund chemistry professor there who taught chemistry and a self-defense class. If you didn’t take the self defense class you would have no idea how this professor was pretty much always, in your words, the most dangerous man in the room. He was also a great teacher. Everyone in the self-defense class loved him. One day a self defense classmate and I were walking to class by the corridor that led to the chemistry classroom. A tall muscular student came charging up to our chem professor complaining loudly about the grade that “ you gave me”. The chem teacher calmly explained that this was the grade that you earned. The student went off like a Roman candle and decided to attack the chem professor. He never came close to landing a blow and was crumpled up on the floor semi-conscious in a matter of about 2 seconds. The professor walked over to us and said something to the effect of, well I guess I’ll get fired. We told him that we saw and heard the whole thing and to call us if needed. The student eventually managed to get up and stagger away. We never got called. And yes, teacher got a standing ovation at his next self-defense class.

Your tactical stance on open carry is right on the mark. I understand that perspective perfectly. However, open carry has its place. Primarily, it is effective in getting the public desensitized to seeing people armed. This reduces mindless fear and causes discussions and awareness of this aspect of liberty and freedom in general. Plus, sometimes it is simply too hot to wear enough clothes to conceal carry. I won't ordinarily open carry, but when I sit down, say, at a restaurant behind a table with my back to a wall, I will go ahead and defeat my garment while seated. Before I get up, I'll conceal, again. Occasionally, when I am with some CC friends, I WILL open carry precisely to be the focus of any criminal intent, as a distraction away from the others in my party. Liberty isn't pretty, and I understand why people don't like open carry themselves. 2nd Amendment proponents should take care not to argue against it for others, or they become the thing they claim to despise- an arms infringement advocate.

I always encounter this situation in my gym. Being a former Army Master Fitness Trainer, I've also taught the material enough times where I can recite the manual existing at the time (FM 21-20). Without projecting myself, I am now fit to the point of being an example in every aspect of fitness; trainer, professionalism, etiquette, etc. Being a former military leader, everything is done as an example for others to follow. Earlier this week, I changed my workout cycle to include heavy cardio for this month. In that spirit, I "ran my own race" performing a 75 min training session on the stationery device in broad view of everyone to observe. Suddenly, everyone gave me this enormous halo around me, leaving me alone. Nobody gave me any grief yet knew I had covered all aspect of fitness while they also knew I was an educated and retired combat vet. They also discovered I was also always willing to speak up and step in when safety matters surfaced. But almost nobody could tell you what my voice sounded like.
