Is the NRA a RELIABLE Source for Self-Defense Law? (A: NO!)
Today I read through a recent #NRA magazine article by Sheriff Jim Wilson–whose work I much enjoy, including this piece I’ll be treating with some modest criticism.
Sheriff Wilson has much good advice and accurate observations in this article, but nevertheless falls prey to perhaps the most common failing in otherwise well-informed people when it comes to the legal use of force–the conflation of weapons law, on the one hand, and use-of-force law on the other.
Treating these two entirely distinct areas of the law as if they overlapped or are in any substantive manner related can only foster confusion in the mind of the public interested in being able to defend themselves, their family, and their property from criminal predation, and diminishes the clarity of understanding necessary to remain within the legal boundaries of both.
