Newbie here. I'm trying to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of carrying. After reading several posts it appears that the law in VA is fairly loose and one will most likely be charged for defending oneself. If the authorities don't charge you then the BG or his family will most likely sue you. It is obvious that one has to be VERY sure and VERY careful to weigh the tradeoffs to use the weapon. Yes, I know that it is better to be alive and sued then 6' under, I get that!
Is there any statistics that give self defense events, the charges brought, and any suits?
I would hate to be in a situation like Zimmerman is in...
