Sure, which is a totally reasonable approach. The writer in your OP says he never (yes, he said never) carries someting in his right hand. That's paranoid.

QuoteI’m just another guy in the store with things in my hand. But only my left hand. I don’t carry things in my right hand. Not at the store. Not in public.
If you lay out intricate steps for doing just about anything in enough detail you can make anything seem incredibly creepy and obsessive. (e.g. "I apply approximately 5 ml of real maple syrup to the leading 1 cm edge. Using the left-side of my fork I tear away the top layer and raise the pancake to my mouth using 40% shoulder and 60% elbow range of motion.")
That said, chalk me up as another vote for, "never using your right hand is bizarre."
Since he has all that time to review videos and train, he could just practice dropping things prior to drawing. Sacks of shopping, maybe a case of sodas, a passion fruit... Or if he doesn't want to cut back on any other training he could just make use of the time he saves not having to constantly make two trips.

Yes..................and if I remember my scenes correctly he said "are you going to pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?" Then he spit ta-backy.

Actually wasn't meant to be a Clint Eastwood reference, but that works too.
I just imagine the looks someone would get pushing a shopping cart full of everything they might feasibly carry in their right hand onto a range so they practice dropping it and drawing from their IWB holster.
"Hey Ernie, what's new? How's the Mrs?"
"She's doing well, thanks for asking.
"Hey Ernie, what if you need to use your right hand to carry a gun? have you thought about what you might do then?"
"Good thinking! I should practice dropping a gun so I can draw my gun! Something for next week maybe!"

champu.......I get what your saying.
I've made another attempt at humor (be it poor). Don't know exactly how to change from serious, to semi- serious, to light hearted, to ridiculous, and get whatever chosen mindset through in a post. Maybe just an internet thing.
Certainly no malice or disrespect meant to you in any way.

QuoteBTW
I have met and been around this guy mulitiple times
I did not know he carried (at the time)
The lovely lady I am seeing now didn't know I carry until our 4th date when during a drive to the mountains I asked if she would like to go to the range the following day. She asked if I ever thought about getting a concealed permit lol, I informed her that I always carry. She was very surprised that she had not noticed.
concealed means just that

>And of course you dont care about what other jumpers on the plane are planning to do
>as you know all will be ok
Watching the careless freeflyers in the back of the plane to make sure they will not snag their handles - probably wise
Thinking the two freeflyers are evil predators who would probably murder you unless you had a gun - probably paranoid

Agreed. And the op ed writer more closely relates to the first group.

I love how you keyboard warriors have turned, "Guy sounds paranoid to me," into, "I'm a liberal, gun-o-phobe who thinks all emergency preparedness is crazy!"
You're just making yourselves look stupid.

No, I follow, no apology needed. In this case I went directly to ridiculous. A pretty good rule when reading my posts in this forum is that if they don't sound reasoned and moderate then I either forgot a word in a sentence or I'm joking around.
Which reminds me, has anyone told this guy he should never swing his right arm when he walks around? Left arm is fine, but if you swing your right arm as you walk it'll just slow you down if you have to draw on someone on account of your hand being a couple feet away from your gun.

SkyDekkerAnd the chances of getting killed by your own gun even higher.
Sometimes this is true

From the article:
". . . wolves. Hungry. Lean. Skilled at their trade. Studying you. Studying me. They like you. They don’t like me. . . I’m polite and I do not want them behind me in line.
The lady with her kid? She doesn’t notice me, but I’m there. I have a phone. I have a flashlight. I have two knives. I have a firearm. And I have a plan. If this doesn’t go well I want to get her and that little one out of here."
So in your opinion, he believes that the threat from the "wolves" is that they will just carelessly knock something over, rather than intentionally try to harm him or the other people in the store?
In that case why the heck does he need two knives and a gun?

Can't have that gun hand busy deploying your canopy.
That's just crazy talk there.

You certainly can its America, but your just further spinning the thread off into the nether by continuing to run with the played out joke started about the guy not holding things in his hand which was taken out of context by someone taking it too literally or just trolling sarcastically. Either way its your right to do it, as its my right to comment on its overuse. 73

So anyway, normal people do tend to scan their environment for risk.
Not using your weapon hand in the expectation that you will get to justifiably kill someone IS paranoia.
Now you can throw a stack of angry cuss words, go for it.
