RIGHT-(alright/rights) (single movement) Used in concepts like: "It is your right." "I'm alright!" (definite) "Alright, go ahead."

Sign RightFromes Hill

In response to "How are you?" -- if I'm feeling really good I'll sign "ALRIGHT" using a single strong movement.  If I'm feeling sort of alright I'll sign "ALRIGHT" using a double movement and a "so so" facial expression. I use the double movement if someone is sick or having a hard time and I want to gently ask someone if they are "alright."  If someone slipped and fell and I want to ask more urgently then I'll use a single movement done with more force.

Magnetic signs

Additionally if I'm signing either fast or casually I tend to drop the double movement and just sign it using a single movement.

RIGHT / CORRECT / ACCURATE: As in, "You are right." The dominant index-finger hand comes down onto the non-dominant index finger hand.

In a world where violence happens, we must be thankful that deadly force is rarely the necessary answer. Having a tool that is designed to be non-lethal could be extremely beneficial in many circumstances where a firearm isn’t the best tool for the desired resolution.

Design your own magneticsign

As with any tool that is designed to be used in self-defense, it is important to receive training. Bearco instructor Barret Kendrick certified Master Instructor for Taser’s Civilian program. We offer courses both for security personnel and civilians wanting to own and carry one for self-defense.

Taser energy weapons are designed to be an effective non-lethal tool to immobilize an attacker. The popular Pulse or Pulse+ civilian versions of the widely used law enforcement devices from Axon, provide the same knock-down punch, but are designed specifically for civilian self-defense. Taser also offers the security officer specific model, the Taser X1, and other models in the professional series.

Notes:  I tend to see the double motion when people mean "rights" plural.   When they mean "right" singular I see the single movement.
