If I need to be a courageous bystander and like the, I've been saying this for about 20 years, the ability to protect yourself or a loved one is an arguably the single most important skill you could possess.

I'm going to put a tourniquet on somebody else or holy shit, I did get cut. I stopped the guy. How do I put a tourniquet on me? like the ability to save your life for someone else. I was like, what is more empowering than that? Here's the transcendent part of that is, and this is a great thing.
