Ayoob on Home Invasions

 

I don’t know how many times I have said that I keep guns for the protection of my family.  While I enjoy the shooting sports, and I respect the Founding Fathers and understand the civil rights issues of gun ownership.  I keep guns because I have an deep need to protect my family.

Working in the State Penitentiary system I see people that have made their living using violence against the innocent.  I know how deadly home invasions and the like can be.  This video shows some tactics for dealing with violent home invasions.  This is important as Home Invasions are on the rise.

According to Wikipedia Massad Ayoob is an internationally known firearms and self-defense instructor. He has taught police techniques and civilian self-defense to both law enforcement officers and private citizens since 1974.

He was the director of the Lethal Force Institute (LFI) in Concord, New Hampshire from 1981 to 2009.  Ayoob now directs the Massad Ayoob Group (MAG).

More than that bio Mr. Ayoob writes some of the best firearm books on the subject of the legal aftermath of a self defense shooting.  I widely quote his work in my classes,  and recommend his books courses and videos to my students.
