All of the above. I approach this the same way I approach any tool—with respect, training, and clear intention. I'm trained in martial arts, firearms, and executive protection, so I understand defense from multiple perspectives.
I appreciate the precision and engineering. But beyond that, personal sovereignty matters to me. In a world where you can't always rely on others to protect you, taking responsibility for your own safety and the safety of those you love isn't just practical—it's an extension of self-reliance and awareness.

Well said 💯🧡👍🏽 keep going
Self-reliance and awareness are excellent attributes.
Thank you for the insightful reply.
I can understand and "feel" some of these aspects, but (luckily) I cannot imagine to live in a place where I have to carry a firearm to protect me; this would be really scary. I hope one day we can all empower a more peaceful personal sovereignty.
Very well explained and impressed. That's why I like the philosophy of Krav Maga so much.
Thank you. I first started incorporating Krav Maga and the Russian special forces combat system, Systema Spetsnaz, into my training a little over 20 years ago. Both are powerful, practical, and effective in the real world.
I agree with you. Krav Maga's moral and operational principles are solid: moral conduct, self-discipline, avoiding unnecessary aggression, personal responsibility, de-escalation, situational awareness, prevention, proportionality and restraint, etc.
The best fight is the one that never happens. And if you can't avoid an attack, then neutralizing the threat quickly and efficiently is optimal—not causing unnecessary harm or death.
