Those two might be great lawyers, but I don't think either of them has ever seen the "Two-Way Range". They miss the obvious. Just like a Soldier's IFAK is on his kit for the treatment of that Soldier, my kit is for ME.
If you carry a weapon for self-defense, then you have already accepted the responsibility for your own continued well-being in the face of a potential lethal threat. That also means accepting that you could get shot. So what are you going to do about that sunshine.
Funny thing about bullets. In a gunfight, they tend to go both ways. If I'm out there using my trauma kit on anyone after a gunfight, it's going to be me. Fuck that other guy. I will happily start self-treatment, and smile at him while watching him bleed out right in front of me.
And if I don't get hit? I will still smile at him while watching him bleed out.
