Frequently Asked Questions

What role does a defensive attitude play in self-defense?

A defensive attitude means being mentally prepared to act decisively when faced with a lethal threat. It's about proactive readiness rather than being caught off guard by an intruder.

A physical breach, such as a door being kicked in, significantly escalates the situation, often marking the point where deadly force may be legally justified and tactically necessary to stop the threat.
