Know the Law

Self-defense is a natural right. As a LTC citizen you have the right to defend yourself with your gun – if justified. The “if justified” is determined by the law, the justice system and the courts. If you are forced to go to your gun, there will be two fights: the physical fight and the legal fight. Make no mistake about it, the law of self-defense can be counterintuitive. Winning the physical fight is only half the battle since losing the legal fight can result in you going to jail for a long time. Be prepared not to lose the legal fight – KNOW THE LAW.
