lol, a crash course wont cover it. this takes a prepper mind-set. (i am actually a personal safety consultant)
you figure out every potential problem one may face, write it down, and then write out a solution. the saying is: the 3 B's. (beans, bullets, and band-aids). so food/water, security, and first aid. just apply that theory to everything: your home, your job, your vehicles. i also have a bag on me at all times. even my wallets are thought-through: they are shielded against RFID theft. many credit cards and work ID's have rf chips that can be "scanned" and the information on there stolen, simply by someone waiting behind you in line. i have wallets that are lined with special materials that block any potential intrusion /id theft.

home:
(food)
do you have food & water stocked up? at least 1 gallon per day, per person. that doesnt include bathing. so augment the bathing with sanitary wipes.

(security)
do you have a safety plan to keep out marauders? do you have an escape plan if something were to happen in the building/neighborhood/city that you live in? fire escape plans, meeting locations in case you break apart from relatives, meet-up locations from ones work. safe locations if something was to happen in nyc on a grand scale. etc. its a scary/heavy topic - but it needs to be discussed. nyc is a hot-spot for terrorism. i NEVER go into that city without NBC gas masks & filters.

(first aid)
do you have what it takes to be the first responder inside your home? what is the average response time in your area? could you contain a trauma patient? do you have tourniquets to contain major bleeding? do you have nasopharyngeal to augment airways? do you have other trauma pack style tools to secure a patient during the ridiculous response times nyc has? this also includes fire-fighting equipment.

your job:
my car is less than a minute walk from my desk - so i dont need to take anything with me into the office. see the next topic. but for those who leave their car, for that of a work car - make sure you have a bag with you, that has 1 days of everything(food/water, security, first aid)

think of the furthest point you ever have to travel for work - do you have enough food/water with you at all times to walk home? what if there is a scenario where you will HAVE to walk home, and its going to be stressful(calories & water are burned faster) - do you have the resources to make it? do you have a man-bag (look up maxpedition sling/shoulder bags, backpacks, active shooter bags, etc. they are all small, yet seriously functional. all the major fed agents use them. i have 3 or 4.) (i have an office-type job, so my car is always within 30seconds walking distance). in my car i have enough food & water to last 3 days. i can take that with me if i need to hoof it home.



car:
(food / water)
i have a maxpedition "JUMBO VERSIPACK" that has enough food & water for 3 days. it also have fire making capabilities, and plastic utensils acquired for free from convenience store deli counters.
i also have a full-size police officer duty bag with basically a bathroom(lol). this is the basis of my 3-day "kit". this bag has everything from mouth wash, baby powder, wipes, towel, nail file & clippers, deodorant, shirt/socks/underwear/ gloves, large hand sanitizer bottle, tooth brush, extra pair of old vision glasses, pens & paper, fire making tools, rescue knife, flashlight, etc,etc,etc.

(security)
i have enough legal pepper spray in my car to take care of myself in this restrictive state. i have flash lights powerful enough to blind, giving me enough time to create some distance. i also have NBC PPE (nuclear, biological, chemical Person Protection Equipment) to get me and another person home, even if on foot. i usually stock 3 of everything. if its expensive like nbc-ppe, its 2 of everything.

(first-aid)
i have a fully stocked trauma pack. everything from minor cuts/scrapes to full blown gun-shot wounds. everything from Combat Action Tourniquets, to Chest Seals, nasopharyngeal , etc. i go shooting a lot - and heaven forbid anyone (friend/family, or fellow range participant) gets hit by a stray, i can respond within seconds and render critical "golden hour" trauma care.


on my person:
i carry a maxpedition LUNADA GEARSLINGER as my daily man-bag/purse, whatever you wanna call it. it has an extra bottle of water, pills(head ache, antacid, meds, etc). i have a mini first aid kit, food for a day, sun glasses, extra feminine hygiene for "her"(can also double as combat gauze) phone charger cords, pen/paper, 2 flash lights, tourniquet, extra batteries, mints/gum, multi-knife, extra $20 in cash, copies of license/reg/insurance, etc. inside this bag is a mexpedition Mini Pocket Organizer that has nail clippers, glues, pens, markers, zip-ties, etc. see video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2CzsR1WqEI

Glock folding shovel (e-tool), tarp, hatchet, tool kit, jumper cables, booster box, lights etc, fleece blanket, sleeping bag, emergency food, water purification bottle, decent first aid kit, basic first aid kit, rain coat, a couple of jacket liners, cold weather gloves, a pair of wool socks, fleece cap, poncho, Surefire light with LED conversion and spare batteries, fire starting kit, fire extinguisher, 550 cord ("paracord"), knife, folding saw.

Small emergency kit with basically the ten essentials and a few other items.

There are other things I'd have to look at to remind myself what's in there.

It's the shovel made by Glock...
I do have a couple a 21 and a 20, my wife has a 19. I'm probably going to get a 41 and convert my 21 into a 10mm carbine with a Mectech CCU. My 20 is my woods walking gun. Will work on everything from cats, coyote, black bear, meth labs, etc... My first response to an aggressive bear is actually bear spray as it's usually more effective, but for last ditch defense.
My EDC is a Springfield Professional.
It's my old 6P with their LED conversion. Not great by today's standards, but it's something I just leave in my car. I have a few TLR-1s, and a couple HL models (I work in a gun store and get the cool toys at cost).
I used to have the original Stinger when I was working security on the East Coast. Was a great light for it's time. Now I have a Surefire R1 in my Maxpedition messenger bag and in the winter I add the Magcharger LED. Plus fleece cap, neck gator and insulated gloves.
I forget the Goal Zero panel with the AA/AAA charger. I have a lightly padded, waterproof seat cover for my rear seats (for my dogs) that can double as an insulated ground cover. There's also a Woodsman's Pal that I really like. Great for cutting blackberry vines and small limbs.
Now if I'm going to or from work there's likely to be at least an AR, or two that I use to demo a few things like grips and triggers. We bring out personal guns in to show what we like and it seems to help people feel the trigger before they drop a couple hundred on a Geiselle.

My wife thinks I'm one step from paranoid... LOL

On the spikes are: troy industries flip-up BUIS, Aimpoint micro h1 (4moa), and some magpul furniture.

Kindred spirits!
I also toss in a few extra items for longer trips. I just came back from the coast, about 2.5 hours away. Had a larger backpack, water filter, extra blankets, more water and food, plus extra supplies for our dogs, as well as their own first aid kit.

We have a few still active volcanoes in the state with the risk of lahairs (mud slides), plus the chance of earthquakes. And on the coast there is the added risk of a tsunami. So I don't feel too paranoid... just in case of a natural or manmade disaster that gets us stuck someplace, or requires us to leave our area.
