Hi and welcome to: Practical Home Defense.

The practical side of personal preparedness and the commonsense side of home defense, and the need for both.

These blogs will be small snippets of quality information that go a lot farther than 60 minutes of “Oh my God, will you please get to the point!”

Let’s get in get it done and get out. Now go practice and have fun with what you just saw or read.

Everyone likes the romantic idea of being the kingly protector of their domain. And they should. But there are a lot of nuts and bolts we need to put in place to get there.

What? Sure, jumping through the air yelling out your best war cry while dramatically delivering a sweeping blow from a Samurai sword while at the same time firing three or four perfectly aimed shots from your custom engraved combat pistol. All before you ever hit the ground and without tripping or running headlong into the doorjamb at 3 o’clock in the morning — because it’s dark.

How do we perfect us? How do we learn how to be aware of our surroundings? How do we plan for and execute a good plan in keeping our family safe?

One book I recommend highly is Defensive Living. Written by Ed Lovette and Dave Spaulding.

You can find this tremendous work at Looseleaf Law Publications: to make sure you get the correct copy. Looseleaflaw.com

It is the best succinct body of knowledge I have found, helping you put things into practice right now. How to be self-aware, aware of your surroundings, aware ahead of time. It’s a short read, only 96 pages.

Why don’t I just tell you all the things in the book?

1 – Why reinvent the wheel?

2 – We will cover topics from the book, but think of it as a textbook, like in college.

The teacher covers the framework, then you get to go home and work in more detail on your own. I am empowering you to take control of where you want to go when it comes to protecting you and your home/family. How bad do you want it?

Stay tuned for more in the next post. Thanks for reading.
