The bastards put me on a $5000 bail so that was 10% or $500 to get out . Chump change . The lawyer , who was very good , was $500 down and $500 at conclusion. Total $1000 and I was sprung .
When I took my concealed carry class, the instructor told us $300,000.00 if you pull the trigger and hit someone. He cited a case where a citizen had to kill a vicious dog (got out of fenced yard) that was attacking him; cost $150,000.00. Many more like this. KB.
