[h=2]Indiana Law Benefiting Gun Owners Goes Into Effect This Month[/h]
Ummm, only if this month is April of 2019.

Yes, but the article (written by foreigners no less) is entirely focused on civil immunity which was effective April.
That's helpful and makes it easier to defend a civil suit.....but don't mistake that for "you can't be sued for a self-defense shoot". You can. This gives the defense more tools to defend the lawsuit.
I'm just hopeful that's not going to be a factor in anyone's decision about whether or not to squeeze the trigger.
The “No fee until we get money for you” wing of your profession has already been deterred.Agreed. Should not be a factor in the least.
...and this law doesn't mean that you won't be put through a **** storm until the matter is resolved or that you won't have to come up with $$ to hire a lawyer to make sure the law gets properly applied.

Agreed and that will be a very positive effect of this law that is exceedingly difficult to measure...
...but let's not assume that every lawyer out there will actually know about the law before filing. We can't all have the professional acuity of........me.
I just asked my state representative, Chris Campbell, why she voted no for this bill. She wrote back "[FONT=&]Thank you for taking the time to reach out to me regarding my vote on HB 1284. I did not vote for this bill because there are already laws that protect an individual in cases of self-defense of others. I believe this bill would not enhance that protection."
I need to do futher research on this.[/FONT]
