As members of society who have chosen to take personal responsibility for our personal defense there are several things other then carrying a firearm and training that are I would say necessary.

One of the first and foremost is having the phone number of a lawyer/attorney who has experience in self-defense cases involving the use of a firearm.

I believe it would be helpful to have a subsection of the forum listing lawyers and attorneys in Pennsylvania by region.

While none of us ever want to use our firearms, should such a situation ever arise being able to contact a specialized lawyer will be beneficial to all.
