A masked aggressor arguing with two men appears to pretend to be presenting a knife, when one of his two victims decides to take decisive defensive action against the mere APPEARANCE of threat.
Lawful? Let's take a look at the video of this use-of-force event and talk about it!
THERE IS ONLY ONE SELF-DEFENSE INSURANCE PROVIDE I TRUST!
There are lots of self-defense "insurance" companies out there. Some are hot garbage. Some have limited resources. Some are simply, in my view, untrustworthy. But there is ONE that I PERSONALLY TRUST to protect myself and my family.

A motorcyclists riding amidst a crowd of others in Philadelphia got angry enough with a car driver that he decided to jump on the car's rear window and smash it into the vehicle.
Would the occupants of that car have been legally justified in simply shooting that motorcyclists dead?
What if that same motorcyclists had a pistol in hand when the car driver exited the vehicle to confront the rider?

Watching hundreds of Israeli citizens being massacred, raped, and kidnapped by violent Hamas invaders has been utterly horrific.
Sadly, these atrocities were made all the easier because Israel generally prohibits the private possession of arms for purposes of self-defense. There is no "Israeli version" of America's Second Amendment.
How differently would the last days have been if the victims of Hamas had been armed only as well as a typical American home, where the AR-pattern rifle is perhaps the most commonly owned long gun in the country? Then, at least the massacre would have come at an instant and substantial cost to the attackers.
Today's show will be very brief, but very important--and it's really just a reading of a tweet from our friend of the Law of Self Defense community, Second Amendment Attorney Kosta Moros. Kosta has been a guest on show before, and surely will be again, and I've always found him to be exceptionally thoughtful on the law generally and the Second Amendment in particular.
Incidentally, you can follow Kosta on Twitter here, and I urge that you do: @MorosKostas

So, yesterday I got a 4-page, single-spaced, physically mailed, paper hate letter from the head of the CO Public Defender's Training Director.
Backstory: Earlier this year at their request I did a FREE (pro bono) legal consult/expert witness testimony for one of their indigent clients charged with MURDER & MANSLAUGHTER. Normally I charge a minimum of $10,000+ for this, did it forR FREE. Happy to in this particular case.
My consult/testimony was pivotal in securing that client's ACQUITTAL on ALL charges. Jury confirmed my value when interviewed after verdict, defense counsel used MY slides in his closing argument, etc.
PD office is happy with my work, they invite me to speak at their annual conference, which I do AGAIN FOR FREE, travel AT MY OWN EXPENSE, hundreds of dollars more. Fine, no worries.
THEN THEY APPARENTLY LOOKED AT MY SOCIAL MEDIA, and realized that I "don't share their values on equity and inclusion."
And they felt compelled to explain this to me in a SINGLE-SPACED, FOUR-PAGE PHYSICALLY MAILED letter I received today.
Worst part: They WANT BACK the sexually ambiguous public defender's T-shirt they had given me in thanks for speaking at the conference.
AND they've PROHIBITED me from wearing the T-shirt on my social media.

Last Thursday a delivery man was acquitted in the shooting of a prankster who confronted him in a mall.
The prankster never presented a weapon, so how could the delivery man's use of deadly defensive force have been reasonable self-defense?
In fact, there are at least SIX FACTORS in this shooting that are highly consistent with lawful deadly force self-defense in this case.

Several folks have frantically sent me a video clip of President Donald #Trump giving a speech in which it is said that he advocates that #looters be summarily shot.
In fact, the video clip is more nuanced than that summary suggests, but I thought it interesting to enough to warrant an unplanned Law of Self Defense Show.
Join me LIVE to discuss what President Trump ACTUALLY said, and to understand what looting actually is, and under what circumstances would shooting be warranted.

Earlier this week I read the 71-page decision of Judge Roger Benitez, a Federal trial court judge, in holding (FOR THE SECOND TIME) that California's standard-capacity magazine violates the Second Amendment.
Obviously, the gun controllers are losing their minds over this decision, and so it was well-anticipated that the California Attorney General, Bonta, would appeal the ruling to the 9th Circuit.
Instead of following normal 9th Circuit procedure and have the matter proceed to a 3-judge appellate court, however--where the mag ban had PREVIOUSLY been found unconstitutional, only to be reversed by an en banc panel of the 9th--the 9th circuit has decided today (Sept. 28), to by-pass normal procedure and go straight to en banc.
Reversing 2A-favorable trial court and 3-panel appellate court rulings is a favored practice of the 9th Circuit, and reliably results in pro-2A rulings being overturned, usually in decisions that can only be described as irrational word salad.
Interestingly, there were several dissents to this order taking the matter en banc, and THEY WERE ON FIRE!!!
