Summary

This week on the Active Self Protection Podcast we sit down with British Police Officer (Armed) Dave and discuss the night he and his colleagues faced down a man armed with a shotgun who had been shooting at random citizens and ended up holed up in his home with his children. Then we sit down with investigative reporter Stephen Gutowski of the reload.com and discuss federal and state judges challenging Oregons new restrictive gun laws.

Active Self Protection exists to help good, sane, sober, moral, prudent people in all walks of life to more effectively protect themselves and their loved ones from criminal violence. On the ASP Podcast you will hear the true stories of life or death self defense encounters from the men and women that lived them. If you are interested in the Second Amendment, self defense and defensive firearms use, martial arts or the use of less lethal tools used in the real world to defend life and family, you will find this show riveting.  Join host and career federal agent Mike Willever and the rest of the ASP staff as they talk to real life survivors and hear their stories in depth. You'll hear about these incidents and the self defenders from well before the encounter occurred on through the legal and emotional aftermath. Music: bensound.com
