Can And Should You Draw A Firearm To Defend A Pet? -Tony Alonso

This week on the Active Self Protection Podcast we sit down with self-defender Tony Alonso and discuss the day he was helping a friend by dog-sitting when the dog he was watching had a close call with another neighborhood pooch (and how he came close to drawing his firearm AND how that could have come back to bite him). Then we sit down with investigative reporter Stephen Gutowski of thereload.com and discuss which high-ranking member of the NRA staff is leaving and what that signals for the embattled gun rights organization.

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
