Good for you for learning how to protect yourself from an early age as well as training your children to do this. I grew up in a very Democrat state where we assume the police will come save us if anything happened. Thankfully nothing happened to me or my family when I was growing up. But of course, there are crazy people out there and it is important to know how to protect yourself. I need to train myself how to use firearms. It's kinda scary though...I'm just intimidated by it I guess.
