No responsibly armed American or responsible gun owner ever hopes to be involved in a self-defense incident. However, it is important to not only be prepared for what happens during, but also for what happens after a self-defense incident. In this week’s “Ask an Attorney” video, attorney Tom Grieve answers the frequently asked question, “What’s the first thing you have to do if you are ever involved in a self-defense incident?”

What Is the First Thing You Should Do If You Are Ever Involved in a Self-Defense Incident?

It is absolutely crucial for responsibly armed Americans to understand what they should do if they are ever involved in a self-defense incident. This week, Grieve discusses the many things to keep in mind about the immediate aftermath of a self-defense incident, including the importance of winning the race to 911. You must, of course, make sure that you are safe and uninjured, but after that, being the first to call 911 could be the difference between going to jail and going home to your family.
