How to prevent becoming a victim
Sheriff Judd recommends people learn the proper way to handle a firearmand then obtain a concealed carry permit to protect themselves.
“If you are dedicated to learning how to handle a firearm and you recognize a mistake with a firearm can be a fatal mistake, you should get your carry permit and always carry a firearm to protect yourself, your loved ones and your home,”
Judd said. “But you have to know how to handle it and shoot it. If they are disciplined, it is certainly a safety tool that will keep them alive in a bad situation.”
