Concealed carry & Leo's

Let you consience be your guide. Personally I couldn't forgive myself if someone died and I could have prevented it if I had not decided it wasnt my problem. If you witness a horrible traffic accident, would you help or would you just say that idiot shouldn't have been texting/drinking/speeding/you name it?

Yea I don't stop for traffic accidents "for the most part" car in the water or on fire I WILL stop. Putting your nose where it doesn't belong will get you sued or put in jail one day. I have no formal training to engage in gunfights or move people with broken bones so guess what I walk the other way. I respect your eagerness to help others but I've had trainers, LEOs and Lawyers all at some point tell me my best interest is to turn and walk away. My #1 goal in life is providing for my family and being there for them.

My conscience says it would be inexcusable to not do everything in my power to make it back to my family. Again, not saying I wouldn't help if possible, but your blaming of others (in this hypothetical situation), for protecting their lives or lively hood from being sued, is wrong. This analogy was told by an instructor on here; You can be the sheepdog and protect all the sheep, I'll just be the wolf and decided when I'm hungry enough to eat.

That particular analogy only works if the sheepdog is interested in protecting all the people all the time.

To be honest I dont really subscribe to the sheepdog concept. Dogs and wolves come from the same type of animal. They have been tamed over millinia, but they are still killers at the root. I'm more like the jackass put out with the cows to protect against preditors.

So now it's OK to only help some of the people some of the time?? Come on, make up your mind.

There is no obvious right answer. It's not as if you're debating whether or not Glocks are better than 1911s- which they clearly are.

I cant be everywhere all the time. I'm not the worlds savior. I'm not prancing around in my underwear, mask and cape, but I can act on things that happen right in front of me and do my level best to protect "the herd."

Every situation is different but I will never feel responsible for what I could have done. Elderly and children I may feel the need to help but for the most part I will roll out the door and call the police. I'm not gonna die or end up in jail because I wanted to play hero dude!

Very good answer

I aint no hero nor do I care to be. And again I aint looking for trouble but if its clear who the bad guy is and if someones life is on the line, I cant stand by or tuck tail. There's a reason I practice and there's a reason I'm always armed, and it aint cause I'm afraid to meet my maker. This aint the wild west and I aint the Duke, but my life dont mean nothing only what I do with it.

Thats right I'm less like a sheepdog and more like a jackass. I thought it was a pretty good analogy and funny too.

Are you asking if there is an SSO/sheriff's posse?

......

Not 100% sure but I think Jeff. Parish does use auxiliary officers, or at least used to. Maybe other parishes do too.

Jefferson parish and several of the municipalities within have reserve officers.

Look everyone has to make their own chioces in life, but tell me if your son, daughter, wife, mother, father, ect. had a bad guy pointing a gun at them and I had a chance to save their life and I didn't want to get shot, would you want me to protect your family?

Be careful appointing yourself head Sheepdog, no one asked you to be and it could bite you so tread carefully.
