If I have a companion who is determined to go Rambo on them, get him going in a direction that will make for a convenient distraction: he has already chosen to die, but perhaps his death can buy my life.

Adrian, fortunately for you, in the USA, we have a militia who believe that perhaps our death will buy yours.

 

My solution is more direct: make sure the militia is sufficiently armed and trained that the Taliban’s death will buy both yours and our militia men.

 

At some point the safest course is to stand and fight.
