[QUOTE="OKNewshawk, post: 3779053, member: 6592"] I think that, in all three cases (surgeon, mechanic, armed individual,) the key is to study [I]both[/I] the tools of the trade and where they will be used. A surgeon who knows his tools but has no clue about the body he's cutting on is as worthless as one who knows the body intimately but doesn't know a scalpel from a crossbuck saw. A mechanic who knows torque wrenches, impact drivers and feeler gauges but doesn't know a carburetor from a differential is no better than one who knows every bolt and nut of a car but doesn't know which tool works on which part. Likewise, a person who wants to protect himself but only knows his weapons and doesn't know how to detect potential threats and how to mitigate them is as ill prepared as one who knows all about the human psyche but can't even load a handgun of any sort. The key is to be well rounded. [/QUOTE]
