“Overreact and You Go to Jail. Underreact and You Go to the Grave.”

October 23, 2026

Matt Mallory is an Army veteran, a part-time police officer in upstate New York, and a full-time firearms instructor who certifies other people in force-on-force. He knew every mistake would be on camera in front of everyone, and he volunteered anyway. So we put him in a crowded room where alcohol, egos, and anger were already mixing. Overreact and you go to jail. Underreact and you go to the grave. See whether you’d have called it the way Matt did.
