Bear Spray, Firearms & Feeling Secure: Essential Self-Defense Training

“Training matters more than possession.”

In this episode of Libertarian Leadership Academy, veteran candidate Joe Hannoush speaks with C. Michael Pickens about real-world self-defense—from bear spray mishaps to the deeper responsibility that comes with firearm ownership. Using Marge Theret as an example, they emphasize that confidence and safety come not from simply having a tool, but from proper training, judgment, and knowing when (and when not) to act. Responsible ownership, preparation, and self-defense knowledge are what truly make people safer.
