Safety course disclaimer
Street Smart is built for clear thinking, not false certainty. Please read these limits before using the course.
Important: not attorney-reviewed
These materials and this disclaimer have not been reviewed by an attorney. They are a clear statement of the course's intended boundaries, not a substitute for legal counsel or a complete legal policy set.
Education, not personal advice
Lions Edge: street smart provides general educational information. It is not individualized legal, law-enforcement, firearms, medical, mental-health, security, emergency, or professional advice. Your situation, location, health, training, equipment, and local rules matter. Do not rely on course material as a substitute for advice from a qualified professional who can assess your specific circumstances.
If there is an emergency
If you believe there is an immediate danger, crime in progress, medical emergency, mental-health crisis, fire, or threat to life or safety, call 911 or your local emergency number right away. Do not wait for a lesson or online advice. For non-emergencies, contact appropriate qualified local professionals, including licensed attorneys, medical or mental-health providers, certified instructors, security professionals, or local authorities as appropriate.
No promised outcome
We do not promise that any material will prevent crime, injury, loss, conflict, arrest, prosecution, a legal outcome, or a negative business or personal result. De-escalation techniques do not work in every situation. Safety decisions always involve uncertainty, and another person’s behavior cannot be controlled through this course.
Firearms and lawful conduct
Any firearms or safety discussion is general education only. Follow all laws, permits, training requirements, transport rules, storage requirements, range rules, and instructions that apply where you live or travel. Seek certified, in-person instruction from qualified local professionals before handling or relying on any firearm-related information. Lions Edge does not encourage unlawful conduct, violence, or the use of force outside lawful, necessary circumstances.
Experience and affiliation
References to the instructor’s prior law-enforcement experience are provided as background for the educational perspective shared here. They do not mean the instructor is currently acting for, speaking for, endorsed by, or representing any government agency, law-enforcement department, court, or other public entity unless we explicitly say so in writing.
Your choices and risk
You are responsible for your own decisions and for evaluating whether a concept is safe, lawful, and appropriate in your circumstances. By using the course or applying its ideas, you understand that real-world safety decisions can involve risk. Do not attempt anything beyond your training, ability, legal authority, or the conditions you can safely assess.
Gear, affiliates, and sponsorships
If we link to gear, services, or other resources and have an affiliate, sponsorship, paid, or other material relationship, we will identify that relationship clearly near the recommendation or link. A mention is not a guarantee that a product is suitable, safe, lawful, or right for you. Evaluate products and providers independently.
Testimonials and results
Testimonials and student stories reflect individual experiences. They are not typical-result claims or guarantees. Your results, decisions, and outcomes may differ based on many factors outside this course.
