This week, Grant’s guest will be Aaron Kreag, author of the PDN article “Lessons Learned From My Good Samaritan Attempt“. They’ll be discussing the hidden costs of self defense and what you can do to deal with them.

thank you very much for this post. It is very informative, and eye opening for the CCW folks of america. It pretty much confirmed my thoughts.
