NOIR Season 4 | Ep.4: "That Will Never Happen ... Until It Does"
About this video
Colion challenges the mindset that violent crime ‘will never happen to me’ by arguing that preparedness for low-probability but high-consequence events is a fundamental right. He interviews people who feel safe without firearms and presents hypothetical scenarios involving home invasion, assault, and civil unrest to illustrate why he believes individuals should have the option to arm themselves. Colion also describes his own experience training in full tactical gear with a plate carrier, acknowledging how his perspective shifted after stepping outside his comfort zone.
Key takeaways
- Colion argues that dismissing personal defense needs based on feeling safe in a low-crime area ignores the catastrophic consequences if that ‘1%’ scenario occurs.
- He teaches that preparedness is about taking responsibility for one’s own safety, not living in fear or assuming violence is inevitable.
- Colion describes how training in uncomfortable, realistic scenarios (shooting from awkward positions, carrying a simulated casualty in full gear) taught him the value of skills he previously dismissed as unnecessary.
