			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally a home invasion story that doesn&#8217;t end up with lowlife scumbags getting the best of honest citizens!</p>
<p>In a recent story, a woman &#8220;tricked&#8221; two criminals about to rape her.</p>
<p>Her preferred method of &#8220;safe sex&#8221;?</p>
<p>A S&amp;W .38 Special!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how she fought back and turned the tables on her attackers&#8230;<span id="more-164"></span></p>
<blockquote>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;">Oklahoma Break-In Turns Deadly When &#8216;Victim&#8217; Pulls Gun And Fires</span></h2>
<p>One gun isn&#8217;t enough.</p>
<p>That was what Linda Smith (a pseudonym) was thinking after two thugs broke into her Oklahoma apartment.</p>
<p>One was holding a weapon (she initially thought it was a knife but it turned out to be a screwdriver) at her throat, and the other was pacing back and forth while holding her purse and demanding her money and valuables. She screamed, and was told if she screamed again, she&#8217;d be dead.</p>
<p>She was doing as police recommend in robberies – comply with a robber&#8217;s demands. But her Lady Smith &amp; Wesson .38 special, which she carries by permit, was hidden in her purse – and the purse was being held by one of the attackers.</p>
<p>Then the situation, suddenly, got much, much worse: <strong>One of the robbers demanded that she take off her clothes.</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Come on, what are you waiting for,&#8221; he told her as he started to yank on her sweatpants, trying to take them off.</p>
<p><a title="Home Invasion Survival" href="http://homedefensetactics.com" target="_blank">Here&#8217;s everything you need to know about &#8220;Home Defense&#8221;</a></p>
<p>Smith pleaded for her safety and distracted the attackers by telling them she would get her money, which was &#8220;in my purse.&#8221;</p>
<p>The robbers inexplicably allowed her to drop to her knees and crawl across the floor to her purse, which the second attacker had dropped.</p>
<p>She reached inside, and the first shot was clear of the muzzle and into the torso of one of the attackers before she even pulled the weapon clear of the purse. Four more shots followed shortly and, in the end, one of the attackers was dead and the second was hospitalized facing a murder rap for having participated in a felony in which someone died.</p>
<p>Smith, in an exclusive interview with WND, explained she comes from a family that believes in self-reliance and courage.</p>
<p>&#8220;I choose to carry a concealed firearm, because even though I am immensely grateful for the protection from our police departments, I realize they&#8217;re not God, so they can&#8217;t be everywhere at once.</p>
<p>&#8220;Deadly situations can happen in the blink of an eye,&#8221; she said. &#8220;If you are not proactive … you are a vulnerable target.&#8221;</p>
<p>Source: <a title="Home Invasion Survival Story" href="http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&amp;pageId=181341" target="_blank">www.WND.com</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Now there&#8217;s one other extremely important lesson here&#8230;</p>
<p>Many gun owners feel safe and secure because they &#8220;own&#8221; a gun.</p>
<p>If they&#8217;re safety conscious, they keep it locked in a safe or at least out of the way where it&#8217;s not a threat but still easily accessible should someone break into their home.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;">But What If You <span style="text-decoration: underline;">CAN&#8217;T</span> Get To Your Gun?</span></h2>
<p>I don&#8217;t care if you&#8217;re packing a .22 pea-shooter or a 155 howitzer, a gun is only good to you if you can get your finger on the trigger and have the business end pointed center mass at the dumbass who decided you looked like an easy target.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why you absolutely MUST know the &#8220;sneaky tactics&#8221; that transform your home and family safehaven into a &#8220;House Of Horrors&#8221; for home invaders!</p>
<p>&#8220;Gun owner overconfidence&#8221; was the entire reason we at the ISCQC developed our &#8220;<em><strong>Home Defense Tactics</strong></em>&#8221; program for <a title="How to survive a home invasion" href="http://homedefensetactics.com" target="_blank">how to survive a home invasion</a>.</p>
<p>And we broke out all of the nastiest tricks we could come up with that will take any attacker by surprise and make them wish they never set foot in your home.</p>
<p>Secrets like:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>The absolute WORST MISTAKE every &#8220;real man&#8221; makes  after being taken hostage</strong> that actually works AGAINST your odds of escaping with your family alive. (You&#8217;ll recognize this as your first instinctual reaction. Do it and you&#8217;re likely to get yourself or a family member killed as a result of your actions!) <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Page 40</strong></span></li>

</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>The &#8220;corridor of death&#8221;!</strong> Know your home&#8217;s &#8220;fatal tunnels&#8221; that make your vulnerable to a sneak attack! <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Pages 45-46</strong></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>What caliber handgun is best</strong> for stopping a madman in his tracks? (You may be surprised at the &#8220;truth&#8221; you find on <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>page 33</strong></span>&#8230;and rethink your current weapon selection!)</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Want to know how to knock someone out with one blow?</p>
<p>Without a doubt, one of the most effective close-quarters combat strategies for instantly ending a street fight is the headbutt.</p>
<p>Smashing an opponent’s face into the crown of your head uses one of your body’s naturally hardened weapons on one of the opponent’s naturally vulnerable spots.</p>
<p>What most people don’t realize when considering how to knock someone out with a headbutt, however, is that the most common method of delivering this technique isn’t the most effective method.</p>
<p>Let me explain&#8230;<span id="more-158"></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;">Why Most Guys Don&#8217;t Know How To Knock Someone Out With A Headbutt</span></h2>
<p>Most people, when they think about how to knock someone out this way, will grab the back of the opponent’s neck, then drag or pull his face down into the crown of the head.</p>
<p>What that neck grab does, though, is prime your opponent for action.</p>
<p>He feels those hands on the back of his neck and his body subconsciously knows that you intend to pull him forward.</p>
<p>In response, his shoulders will tense and his hands will come up as he prepares, instinctively, to resist you.</p>
<p>Those tensed shoulders will make it extremely hard for you to pull him down into your headbutt with any real force, even if you’re on the inside of a clinch with him.</p>
<p>The most effective way to knock someone out with a headbutt is to use a whiplash effect.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;">Using A Headbutt Whiplash To Knock Someone Out</span></h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="405" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3Qma7Sxe6VE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?rel=0&amp;color1=0x234900&amp;color2=0x4e9e00&amp;border=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="405" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3Qma7Sxe6VE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?rel=0&amp;color1=0x234900&amp;color2=0x4e9e00&amp;border=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>This works particularly well when your opponent isn’t expecting the technique.</p>
<p>To do this, you simply reach forward, grab his shirt with both hands, and push him away from you while hanging on to him.</p>
<p>He will react naturally and automatically to your shove because you’ve put him off balance.</p>
<p>His shoulders will disengage and his arms and head will lurch forward due to his body quickly moving backwards.</p>
<p>The secret for how to knock someone out is to use that rear momentum and body reaction to your advantage.</p>
<p>In a split second as you push your attacker forward by the shirt and he’s off balance, sharply pull his body back toward you while tucking your chin to your chest, creating a stable striking surface.</p>
<p>As his arms naturally flail backward and his head snaps back, this whiplash motion will create an immense amount of forward momentum while bringing his face crashing into the crown of your head.</p>
<p>By moving his body first in one direction and then the other in rapid succession, your attacker becomes a rag doll in your hands.</p>
<p>The amount of force generated at the point of contact causes an immense amount of trauma to the body and overwhelms the central nervous system, likely causing a knockout in one blow.</p>
