Wow, thanks for all the helpful information. I'm starting to find some useful stuff, and the law does vary from state to state. Someone mentioned the duty to retreat laws, and then there's the stand your ground laws, and it's actually kind of interesting once you get past the legal jargon that's sometimes confusing.

Once I get it done (if I think it's decent) I'll submit it to Patrick and maybe he'll post it on the articles.

yes definately, i'd like to see all these ideas/thoughts/concepts put together plus your own writing skills on such an interesting topic. its truly fascinating how if fluctuates from state to state and how its almost easy to agree with all the laws on some level.

I try to keep all of my students updated at least on the local laws concering self-defense and concealed carry. Really, any aspect that I can think of that the training I provide may fall into. At the end of the day however, I tell them that in an actual self-defense situation it's better to be tried by twelve than carried by six.

I agree here... In a self defense situation, its him or me..
