Respectfully Lu An Li, that is a path to DEATH, but if you survive, yes, you might have a better chance at trial.

Unless you’re a white male. In which case, kill the SOB; you’re going down anyway.

The cop [or civilian for that matter] backing away from the assailant is absolute proof at trial or a review board of no malicious intent by the shooter.

Keep more than that seven yard distance if possible.

God Bless you Southerner.

I ain’t going to the ground or anything like it, but I can understand the philosophy. Not willingly anyway. You haven’t solved the weapon problem, Sir, with respect. Momentum yes, not the weapon.

I am usually inclined to side step but I really like Greg E idea to advance catty corner to non weapon side.

An often overlooked tactic is to drop to a crouch, head tucked in, and let the attacker run over you and fall flat on his ass. This works for attackers running up behind you as well. Usually the attacker does not know how to fall and roll and will incur painful grazes on hands and elbows, or even a shoulder injury. This has happened to me and yes, it works.

Did training there, this guy solid.
The suggestion makes sense.
