Tuesday, May 22nd. As we entered our training area at Oak Haven Church, Jason had His projector and comments at the ready.

County Attorneys' from Washington county and Isanti county met with 14 Members from our Shuri Te Association Enlighentening us about our Responsibilities to both the attacker and ourselves.

Be able, in the heat of battle to recognize when to use Reasonable force. The "Castle Doctrine" is interesting, many of us have the wrong idea of what we can or can not do to protect us in our Home. It is difficult to explain all they told us, but if you have questions, please contact someone who was there. Hopefully in March, we will have a Doctor help us with the Medical Implementation of strikes.
