Understanding self-defense, guns, and personal safety
Recent shootings of people who rang the wrong doorbell, pulled into the wrong driveway, or opening the door of the wrong car have raised questions about claims of self-defense. We talk to the Director of the Public Defender Project at the UW Law School about balancing our right to defend and our ability to stay safe.
