Unless this is an AAR. In that case, we're right on track.

I must've missed the ~sarcasm~ smiley.
This is exactly an AAR, and everyone is posting their opinions as if it were, because it is. If you think and act as you posted in your first paragraph, one would think "Why train"? Why fight"? "It doesn't do any good to have situational awareness, there's nothing you can do anyway".
I personally abhor this type of thinking. If
YOU want to be an unwitting victim, please stand next to me, as I won't be, and I won't have your back, I'll have mine and my families. You'll get shot, I'll walk away.
I carry everywhere I go, I avoid gun-free zones, and I maintain SA at all times, along with practicing different scenarios that one may encounter in their daily activities. Guess we need to add a theater scenario to the list now. RIP to the victims and that was not a joke.
