Gents: I have read all this with great interest, but have yet to see the two most important self-defense components. This wisdom comes from many, many conversations with law officers of all types, numerous lawyers, and at least one judge.
1. A criminal lawyer who knows the D.A. and all the judges. When you blow someone away, you will need him and you will not have time to shop.
2. Roughly $60,000 to spend on legal fees.
When your primers blow you are finally getting serious.
