Sheepdog Tip of the Day, During Combat tip 75
Fortunately the true predator, the sociopath who feeds without remorse on his own kind, is rare. Still, you should never assume that he is not out there. Usually, the predator does not give any verbal cues; he stands calmly and then attacks violently, forcing you to react to his action. It is quite possible he will get off the first shot and the odds are that you might get hit. Should that happen, never believe that the fight is over. Your warrior mindset will replace the shock and fear and you will go on; you will continue to fight. When a sheep gets bit they go "Baa," roll over and die. When a sheepdog gets bit, he gets pissed off and bites you back. A warrior meets the predator and survives.
