NOPE! NO and WRONG!
I am the oldest of 6 Siblings, I react just like a Mother would... my Military experience may give me more assets or methods to react with...
Perhaps standing in front of 480 of the finest Humans on the Planet every morning for 5 years enhances my Big Brother reaction to protect MY People, now that I’m Civilian, Everyone is My People and you don’t mess with My People, EVER. (No different than messing with My Mom or My Siblings, any threat is dealt with a quick fast and in a hurry response and Death as a penalty is always on the table)
Mess with a “Mother” anything when the Offspring is in jeopardy or danger, that is a True Selfless Bravery that can be easily duplicated and witnessed inter-species, “Big Brother” or “Sheepdog” is a very similar Human response.
(The Sheep response can also be witnessed, demonstrated and reproduced as Terrorists continue to do... Sheep are very STUPID they tend to congregate in GUN FREE ZONES)
I wasn’t talking about you. My point is simply that the average citizen with no military training will not respond in the way trained individuals do.
And the trained individuals I know are not outspoken about it. They are guarded, even humble when it comes to speaking about their skills.
