Let's not get into this subject, or Charlie will get upset (shudder)... but CCWSafe seems to be the up and coming service of this type. In any case, when I spoke of "calling your lawyer" above, I was thinking of having one of these coverages.rbwhatever1 wrote:Me either. I suppose one of them could recommend somebody but that would take time to locate. I hope I never need one.C-dub wrote: I do not have a lawyer on speed dial and the only one's I know personally, whose phone numbers I have in my phone, are not criminal defense or 2A lawyers.
Maybe a good topic on this forum would be for legitimate, sane, well respected 2A Defense Attorneys by location so we can all have a local superstar in our pockets.

Re: What's your opinion - NOT calling 911 after a SD shootin
I tend to agree, although I've heard many times to NOT say you had to shoot (even in self defense), because in so doing, you're confessing. It's kinda hard to imagine saying anything else, though, with a guy lying dead on the pavement right in front of you.Keith B wrote:A very wise man that owns this forum will tell you that when safe to do so, immediately call 911. Advise them 'My name is------. I just had to shoot a man/woman that attacked me with a (gun/knife/etc). Please send an ambulance and police to (the location of the shooting). Don't stay on the phone and answer their questions, just hang up and wait for the police, and don't have your gun out when they arrive.
When the police arrive, give just the basic info of what happened like 'This man came out of nowhere and tried to stab me with a knife. I was in fear for my life so I had to shoot to stop the attack'

What's your opinion - NOT calling 911 after a SD shooting
Here's a guy, a private investigator, with some pretty hard nosed advice. I've always been taught that the VERY first thing you should do in a self defense shooting is call 911. He advises leaving the scene immediately, calling your lawyer and letting HIM call 911. A lot of what he's saying is true, however, about how you can easily hang yourself by talking to the 911 operator or the police. Still, the idea of fleeing from the scene makes me nervous. It would be interesting to hear some opinions.
