Welcome to the fifty five 17 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: carse Morning Show. Tim Beard, author of Look Twice, Your 18 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: Guide to Staying Safe in an Unsafe World, Volume one. Tim, 19 00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: good to hear from you today. 20 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 2: Thanks so much, buying for having me on. I appreciate 21 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: the opportunity. 22 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: Timing couldn't be better in terms of societal issues going on, 23 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: set as they may be. But I was at the 24 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: eye doctor yesterday and I'm sitting in the office little 25 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: you know, where they put you, and they wait for 26 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: the doctor to come in. I look up and there's 27 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: one of those door braces hanging on the wall in 28 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: cases gun fire in the hallway. You slide that brace in, 29 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: you lock it in place so they can't get the 30 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: door in. I'm looking at that, and I'm going, Okay, 31 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: I understand the justification for it, but what a sorry 32 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: commentary on life that we even need those. But apparently 33 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: my eye doctor's clinic talk to you, that is something 34 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: you might want to have in place because you've prepared. 35 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: Isn't that the basis of look twice, like, measure twice, 36 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: cut once, look twice, sir? 37 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 2: It is. And that's the thing, first of all I 38 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: want to say to your audience is security is not hard. 39 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 2: They can do this, but it comes to doing the fundamentals, 40 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 2: the basics, the right stuff every time, and it comes 41 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: to planning and preparation before something happens. That's how the 42 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: work that I did, for example, before I retired from 43 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: the agency. When you're out doing the work, you have 44 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: to plan and plan and plan because something's going to 45 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: go wrong. But at least then you have a plan 46 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 2: to fall back on so you can adjust. And I 47 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: cover a lot of that in the book series. There's 48 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: actually three books. The first one's out now, yeah, I. 49 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: Was getting ready asking about volumes two and three. We'll 50 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: wait for those. But in the initiation, of course my insect, 51 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: you break it down into environments like, for example, safe 52 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: at home and work. What you need to prepare for 53 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,399 Speaker 1: at home probably a lot different than if you're going 54 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 1: out to the supermarket, the grocery store, or you're traveling. 55 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: So let's start with what some of the points you 56 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: bring up in how to stay safe at work? We need, 57 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: I guess we need to be first aware of the 58 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: concept that we need to think about our safety and 59 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: first and foremost. I think that may be the biggest challenge. 60 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,119 Speaker 1: Although in the home and work, what are some vulnerabilities 61 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: that my listeners should be focused on. 62 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: Well, for example, with the workplace, you want to know 63 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 2: what you got, So in the book I talk about 64 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 2: assessing your workplace you know, do you have a security 65 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: force there? What's the nature of the industry? Do you 66 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: have clients come to your workplace? Or if a visitor 67 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 2: shows up? Is that of a warning sign right there? 68 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: Nobody's supposed to be coming here. People don't, They don't 69 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 2: visit here. If if somebody is coming, what is you know? 70 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 2: Is it do you sell? Do you sell children's toys 71 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 2: or are you selling pharmaceuticals? What is the nature of 72 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 2: the business. That's going to be an important piece for 73 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: assessing that. So that's one thing. The other thing, too, 74 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: is that if you do have a problem, you want 75 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 2: to plan ahead while you're calm, while you don't have 76 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 2: adrenaline pouring through your body and you start making bad decisions. 77 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: So the standard one that we use, which DHS pushes 78 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 2: is run, hide, fight. So if something does happen, you 79 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: want to plan for this in advance. You need to 80 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: know where you're going to run to. That's the first 81 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 2: thing you want to do. You want to get away. 82 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 2: Where are you going to run to? You want to 83 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 2: plan and say I'm going to run down the street there, 84 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 2: I'm going to run over here, I'm going to keep 85 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: going until I'm out of the way until I'm out 86 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: of where I'm not going to be observed, but also 87 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: where I'm not going to be in the line of gunfire. 88 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 2: So you want to be behind a building, behind a 89 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: very thick wall, and I'm not talking drywall, I'm talking concrete, 90 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: thick concrete. The second piece of that is hide. If 91 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: for some reason you can't get away, you can't run, 92 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: which is certainly what you want to do, then you 93 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,679 Speaker 2: need to hide. Well. Most people as a kid, they played, 94 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 2: you know, hide and seek. Well, while you're calm, while 95 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: you're thinking clearly, find three, four or five really really 96 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 2: good places that you can hide, that you can get 97 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: to in your workplace, because then you're less inclined to 98 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 2: make errors. You're going to choose pretty bad spots if 99 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 2: you're stressed out and the adrenaline's poorn through your body 100 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: and you're you know, facing a difficult situation. So figure 101 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 2: those places out in advance. Nowhere you're going to go. 102 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: It's it's getting the mindset right. And then, of course, 103 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: of course, if you have to, and no one wants 104 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: to have to do this, if you have to fight, 105 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: fight like your life depends on it, and that would 106 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: be the last option. That's something you can do for work. 107 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: All right. Now, considering you're talking about looking place and 108 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: being prepared and being safe, if you are stuck with 109 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 1: that option, does that also not require some advanced preparation? 110 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: Can you even fight? How will you fight? If you're 111 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: in a desperate situation. I appreciate you're probably going to 112 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 1: resort to whatever you got around you, but if you 113 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: think ahead of time. Me being a support of the 114 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: Second Amendment and the owner of multiple firearms, I know 115 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: where I'm going to do and what I'm going to 116 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: do in terms of fighting back. I'm prepared to do that. 117 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: But not everybody's in that position, sir, Yeah, and that. 118 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 2: Is that is tough. I know. I've worked, as you mentioned, 119 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: in the public and private sectors. Some of the private 120 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 2: sector places I consulted in the energy industry in Texas 121 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 2: after I retired, and even though it was Texas, there 122 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 2: were a lot of places where firearms were strictly prohibited 123 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 2: from even the property. You could not have that there. 124 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: I'm a big Second Amendment guy as well, having a marine, 125 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 2: but you can't have firearm certain places. A lot of workplaces, 126 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 2: even if they are pro Second Amendment, let you leave 127 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 2: it in your car. They won't let you bring it 128 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: into the workplace. And so that's where you have to 129 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 2: as I said, and initially, you have to know what 130 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 2: kind of a security force is present. There is the 131 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 2: security force if you even have one at your company. 132 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 2: Are they carrying radios which means they're there for insurance compliance, 133 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 2: they're there to observe and report, or are they carrying firearms? 134 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: And are they you know they would be trained and 135 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: licensed by the state, But are you going to put 136 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 2: your life in their hands? Those are things where you 137 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 2: want to know in advance what you're looking at so 138 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: you don't get surprised when the moment of truth comes. 139 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: Tim Beard, the author of the book we're talking about, 140 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: Look Twice. Your guide to is Staying Safe in an 141 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: Unsafe World, Volume one. You know, I always struggle with that. 142 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: If your employer says you are prohibited from bringing a 143 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: firearm into work, it seems to me as a lawyer, 144 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: they must take on the role of guaranteeing your safety 145 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: because they've taken away the first and best choice for 146 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: many people, the great equalizer. And if you get crazies 147 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: coming into the room, as we know can happen from 148 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: time to time, hence the purpose of your book. And 149 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: they don't provide you adequate security to repel those crazies. 150 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: They have put you in a I think an unsupportable position, 151 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: and there's. 152 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: A lot of legal discussion about that. I am not 153 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 2: an attorney like you are, but there has been a 154 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: lot of discussion about is that is the company liable 155 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: if they have to provide a safe environment for you 156 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 2: to work in. At one point I want to make 157 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: on that too. When we talk about getting ahead of 158 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 2: this stuff, some people say, well, my workplace isn't really 159 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: a problem. But what happens is people bring problems from 160 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 2: home into their workplace. For example, say they have a 161 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: partner and they're separated, they're strange from them. The partner 162 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: is going to know that they're at work. That's a 163 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: place they can find them. And this is why the 164 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: company needs to be aware of this in advance and 165 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 2: say hey, we don't allow it. Visitors. If that partner 166 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 2: shows up and says, hey, I just want to talk 167 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: to them. One, you don't know if they have a 168 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: weapon on them. Two. A lot of times that may 169 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: have been their intention when they came there, but that 170 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: can degrade because emotions get involved, and if the person 171 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 2: is predisposed to violence, they may become violent with the 172 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: person they want to talk to and other collateral folks 173 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 2: around that that's a problem, and that's why a lot 174 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 2: of times you don't accept visitors at work. You know, 175 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 2: keep those problems at home. People don't realize that it's 176 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: it's something that's It can also be the problem employee. 177 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 2: The employee that after something happens, everyone knows it's been 178 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 2: reported to HR fifty times and they haven't done anything 179 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 2: about it. Most companies they know somebody in the company 180 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 2: that has been difficult and just you need to keep 181 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 2: If you see something, you need to keep reporting that. 182 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 2: Otherwise they'll say, well, there was no data, there was 183 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 2: nothing we could do about it because no one ever 184 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: said anything. The little things about getting ahead of the problems, 185 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 2: that's throughout the book. One of the major themes I 186 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 2: have is about mitigating risk. And the term I used 187 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 2: avoid avoid avoid sounds simple, but if you apply those 188 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 2: concepts it will really help. 189 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: It'll help, but maybe not work in all circumstances. I'm 190 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: chuckling a little bit, Tim Beard, author of Look Twice, 191 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: Volume one, Because you do have a full section on 192 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: transportation awareness. One of the subject matters you deal with 193 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: his road rage. I personally had to experience the only 194 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: time I ever had to pull out my concealed carry 195 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: that I thought it was actually going to have to 196 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: use it. This guy, who ultimately turned out to have 197 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 1: been whacked out on heroin and fentanyl or heroin and 198 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: meth amphetamine. I think it was literally tried to kill me. 199 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: I'm with his truck on the highway and I tried 200 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: to get out of the way I was up. I 201 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: zipped up to one hundred and twenty miles an hour 202 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: trying to escape him, and every time I did, I 203 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: ended up running into traffic. He pit maneuvered me in 204 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: an on ramp, tried he rammed me multiple times. He 205 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 1: clearly wanted to kill me. So finally, when my car 206 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: became disabled, you know, I had my gun on my 207 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: open the car door. I'm ready for him to being 208 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: attacking me, and he had ended up walking across the street. 209 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: But there I was stuck in that very situation. I 210 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: was prepared because I had a gun. What do you 211 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: think average run of the mill, every day people should 212 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: be thinking about when it comes to dealing with issues 213 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: of driving or riding on subways even. 214 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: Sure, and then let me mention Brian, there were a 215 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 2: couple of things you mentioned there that I would choose 216 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 2: to do differently. When you said your speed's kept going 217 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: higher and higher than what you end up doing, is 218 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 2: you run the risk of causing additional problems. Yeah, and 219 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 2: you could hit somebody or something. What I would tend 220 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 2: to do, I would reduce my speed, but you got 221 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 2: to keep moving. 222 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: I started, I started with that. I cut out a 223 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: lot of the details. I started with that approach, and 224 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: he got in front of me. He wouldn't let me proceed, 225 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: and I figured he was going to try to come 226 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: out of his truck and kill me. I drive a little, 227 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: tiny two seater sports car. He was in a big 228 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: King cab F three point fifty or something. So I 229 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: was out gun, outsized, and of course dealing with traffick nditions. 230 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: But there I was presented with that a situation where 231 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: I was faced with that, you know, eminent apprehension of 232 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: grievous bodily harm. So if I read the book, may 233 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: be able to look approach it differently. But that's the 234 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: kind of thing that Tim wants you to think about. 235 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: Tim Beard name of the book, Look Twice Your Guide 236 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: to Staying Safe in an Unsafe World.

I talk about that. That one's 249 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 2: going to be very very important right now.

You'll 251 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 2: certainly appreciate that portion because I talk about weapons selection. 252 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 2: I talk about a bunch of different things involving self defense, 253 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 2: a little chapter on medical response because a lot of 254 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: people don't think about that, but it's important. And then 255 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 2: overseas travel and leving.
