We all have our EDC.

Generally a knife, flashlight, pocket tool (which may double as a knife), pen, maybe a firearm or pepper spray.

We need to add bleeding control to that.

In case you missed it there was a shooting in the NYC subway this morning.

Here are some images (graphic):

That is a lot of blood.

Bright red arterial blood.

That’s not good.

You don’t need to be a medical expert to stop bleeding like that.

A basic bit of knowledge and the right tools.

I’m a big believer in the Israeli bandage.

I know a lot of people like tourniquets

I’m an Alton Brown fan and he loves multi-tasker tools for the kitchen.

The Israeli bandage is the trauma multi-tasker.  It is a compression bandage that can also be used as a tourniquet or for a thoracic bandage.

A tourniquet is just a tourniquet.

The video below shows the multiple ways of using an Israeli bandage.

A 4-inch bandage is about the size of a wallet.

I keep one in my pistol fanny pack as well as my glove box.

This is one item worth adding to your bag, suitcase, purse, etc. as an EDC item.

Who knows when shit will go down and you find yourself needing to stop someone’s life from gushing out of an artery forming a puddle on the ground.

If you have spent any time around children you might have seen a kid say something like “if I can’t have/play with it, nobody will.”

This person needs to lose weight.

She’s probably been told that a lot.

Rather than do the hard work of self discipline, diet, and exercise, she would rather burn down the freedoms and excesses of Western Civilization that made low cost, abundant food available to her.

This is the defining characteristic of two generations of Leftist: “I am unhappy that I can’t discipline myself to achieve the things that I want so I’m going to destroy society so that nobody will be happy and successful.”

Most likely this is a test or demonstration platform for the XM914E1 Chain Gun system that Northrop was awarded.

But yes, it is essentially a Ford F250 technical with the 30mm gun from an AH-64 Apache mounted in the back.

And I want one.

We must ban the guns says the leader of the party that unleashed violent, murderous mobs on American citizens to win an election and let convinced criminals out of prison because of a cough.

The fastest growing demographics of gun owners are women and minorities in urban areas who have come under siege from criminals due to COVID and Social Justice bail reform policies that let criminals go free.

Gun control will not reduce crime.

It will hinder these new demographics of fire time gun owners from buying effective tools of self defense.

Leftist, as part of their dimmer switch of violence, understand how crime and criminals can be used as effective tools of political coercion and enforcement.

Armed citizens cannot be allowed to defend themselves from criminals or the political use of criminals is voided, so the obvious solution is to disarm the law abiding citizens, not re-arrest the criminals.

Again, this is about inflicting pain on the people for trying to lives lives of self reliance.

I just saw this in Twitter regarding Pedo Joe’s Ghost Gun Regulations.

If something pro-gun passes, it is their win. If a gun control regulation is enacted, it is 100% the fault of the NRA.

This is the same kind of bullshit they accused the NRA of doing and was used to make a name of themselves and increase their fundraising.

Do we even dare to demand they open their books and let us see where the monies have gone?

Hypocrites.

Never forget that somewhere there is a guy who really does not give a damn about life, yours or his.  Let’s try not to meet him.
