Be Peaceful, Not Harmless.

I don't know where this saying originated from or what the original intention of the phrase is, but this is my takeaway from these words.

Not Harmless

I'll start with the second half of the phrase first, as I think most people will not disagree with the way I interpret its meaning.

Let us not neglect our training so that we may be able to effectively use our tools should we encounter a situation that necessitates their use.

To be harmless is to be at the mercy of those who are capable of inflicting harm. Do not be harmless.

Be Peaceful

This part is something that I don't hear mentioned nearly as often, but I think is equally as important as training, if not more so.

Let us not neglect our work so that we may cultivate peace where we will never encounter situations that requires our tools.

In my opinion, and only my opinion, the theoretical ideal is where everyone is proficient, competent, and effective in employing their firearms and first aid equipment in the event that those skills are required, but also where everyone is kind to each other and active in their communities so that there few, if any, incidents that would require the use of those skills.
