re: Defense Lawyers point of view for using your concealed firearm

While I found the article to be a "good read", it seemed to be very self-serving. Think of this, if you are so calmly able to analyze the situation to determine if using your weapon is necessary, as the author suggests, shouldn't you be able to just as calmly explain yourself to the officer? Again, don't be an idiot, don't say more than you need to, but explaining yourself to the responding officer doesn't seem to be a horrible idea.
