In Indiana, a person who defends his life or the life of another with lawful and justified force in self-defense can still be sued by the criminal involved - and face years of incredibly stressful and expensive litigation. HB 1284 (which I drafted), introduced by Rep. Jim Lucas and co-authored by Reps. Ben Smaltz and Christy Stutzman, would weed out the frivolous cases and give real meaning to Indiana's current policy that "No person in this state shall be placed in legal jeopardy of any kind whatsoever for protecting the person or a third person by reasonable means necessary." (Ind. Code 35-41-3-2(c))
I discussed HB 1284 on last night's The Gun Guy Show (link below) - and why this bill should become law in Indiana. Please share - and please contact your state legislators and ask them to support this important legislation - which will be heard in the Judiciary Committee TOMORROW (Monday) at 10:30 am in Room 156-D in the Statehouse.
