Know the Law

December 4, 2023

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.

John McAdam, Ph D will be visiting The Tewksbury Rod & Gun Club on Sunday January 7th from 9am to 1pm. If you are interesting in attending John’s session there is a cost of $100. Please contact firearmsafety@tewksburyrodandgun.org to sign up.
