Hone Your Natural Instincts

By Kellene Bishop
Ladies, it’s important that we control our bodies in a stressful encounter and not the other way around. The ability to do so may certainly make the difference between life and death.
For example, when a woman sees a gun pointed at her, her natural instinct is usually to scream and put her hands [...]

What YOU Can Do To Protect Others

By Kellene Bishop
This week I’ve been impressed with the power of what an individual can accomplish. It only took 2 people to completely annihilate a corrupt organization of ACORN that even high powered politicians wouldn’t/couldn’t do. Thomas Paine was one person who changed the face of our nation forever with nothing more than his desire [...]

Safety in Your Car

By Kellene Bishop
As a nation overall, we don’t walk much. Sure we walk to and from our cars, but usually we’re in the vehicles when we’re going somewhere. As a result, the poor criminals who would normally hold you up in the back alley are starving. So they’ve taken to the brazen act of holding [...]

Does a Knife Constitute a Gun Fight?

By Kellene Bishop
In short, the answer is yes. I have received some e-mails over the past year from persons mistakenly believing that the defense should be in “like kind” of the attack—meaning that a fist should be fought back with a fist and a knife should be fought back with a knife. I don’t know [...]

Sitting Duck or Vital Community Member?

Unfortunately, that’s a very accurate depiction of the makings of every part of our society. [...]

The Bourne Self-Defense

By Kellene Bishop
I have to admit it. I love the Jason Bourne movies. There’s one scene in one of Bourne movies in which Jason Bourne rolls up a magazine and uses it to beat the crud out of someone. There’s another in which he uses a simple pen to cause pain and agony. Implausible you [...]

What I Did for Love

By Kellene Bishop
“I declare to you that woman must not depend upon the protection of man, but must be taught to protect herself and there I take my stand.” Susan B. Anthony
This may be a side of me that my readers wouldn’t expect to read, but here goes. I am officially a hopeless romantic. After [...]

Warning to Home Invasion Criminals

By Kellene Bishop
I’m sure I won’t win any popularity points with the liberal media and its adoring admirers with this comment, but here’s a warning to home invasion criminals: if you come into my home uninvited, you better plan on having a current will drawn up and have repented of everything else in your life. [...]

Right-to-Carry Laws and the Thune-Vitter Amendment

From an excellent blog by Scott J. Bach, blogger for www.blog.nj.com on the Right-to-Carry, published July 21, 2009. 
In an era where vicious criminal predators prey upon the weak and vulnerable, the U.S. Supreme Court has surprisingly held that police owe no duty to protect individual citizens and cannot be held accountable when they fail to [...]
