Can you shoot someone who assaulted you with a punch in the face? In this informational video, U.S. Concealed Carry Association Director of Content Kevin Michalowski and noted criminal defense attorney Tom Grieve outline why deadly force should be your absolute last resort in a self-defense incident.
00:00 A viewer asked, “Can you shoot someone if they punch you in the face in a stand-your-ground state?”
00:48 Tom backs up his standard “It depends…” answer with mitigating circumstances in which it might be legal to use your concealed weapon against an unarmed attacker.
01:19 Any use of force has to be objectively reasonable. If a jury rules against you, you could spend the rest of your life in jail.
02:08 You may use non-deadly force to stop a non-deadly threat from interfering with you or your property.
02:22 You can only use deadly force if you are reasonably in fear of imminent death or great bodily harm.
03:05 The prosecutor, judge and jury will evaluate the context of the incident such as disparity of size, strength and training and whether or not you could reasonably escape. Did you have any other options to defend yourself, short of firing your concealed carry gun?
04:14 Remember, use deadly force only as the very last resort against an immediate threat of death or great bodily injury. It is never justified short of saving your life.

What would you do in this scenario?
Love your videos, but you missed a huge part of this scenario. If somebody punches me in the face, then it seems like one of two things is likely to happen next: either they take the one hit and run away, or that punch is the beginning of them trying to really hurt me. If that punch is clearly the start of that person trying to "beat me up" then yes I will shoot if I can. But at that point he (or she, to be fair) is probably all over me and I'm 30 seconds too late to pull out my gun — which means if that person is serious about attacking me he might discover my gun and go for it.
At age 62 if I sense an attack about to happen, and I'm carrying, I'm probably going to pull my gun out, pointing at the ground, and will be yelling at that person to go away.
What about if youre a person with intracular lenses in your eyes?
Can you shoot to harm/disable instead of shoot to kill? Example, someone is being attacked and you come to their rescue. Can you shoot to incapacitate until police get there?
No u can't shoot anyone if they jack u up the side your head. It's not called a life threatening action and it's not a good shoot.
If you punch me, I will immediately send you to go play poker with Elvis 😎 I'll get my day in court💯 KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELF
I’ve taken my sidearm off to throw hands a few times but it’s always in a close friends hand and they know what to do just incase people start jumping in🤷🏼💯😂
Plenty of cases where a punch killed someone. Even if it’s just a knockout, there’s no telling how far someone will go beating your unconscious body. It can most definitely be deadly force.
“Reasonable” is not an objective term. It’s literally subjective by definition. The law is such a joke, the entire concept of rule of law is absurd. Everything is always up to the interpretation of those who have more power than you.

I’m handicapped if you tell him with a gun on him an he charges u so u shoot him he gonna beat u an rob u so it should be self defense
Just carry mace, it would be more entertaining watching the bad guy squirm and rub his/her eyes.
Any conflict can turn lethal I've seen plenty of videos of a man punches another man in the face/head 1 time and the victim falls over hits his head on the pavement and dies so therefore I would consider getting hit with anything potentially deadly force
just how dukd up r self defence "laws"?? ya felony assult ANYONE unpravoked or not agreed mutual combat ….yea, you need t get shot real dead b4 ya go on to th next victim
why?!? if i could continue to get punched untill unconciousness ? when then would it be "ok" in the eyes of th "law" to defend myself?? il tell ya what .. dont come at me or mine w ANY il intent .
I never hear anything concerning the disabled. How about it guys?
What if the person knocks you down and jumps on top of you and continues to punch you until you are almost unconscious?
If the guy was an x pro fighter. Aka golden gloves.
If it's just a fist fight, then no need for a gun… You've got to be skilled enough to get to my face.. would have to sneak up behind me or someone else is holding me down… Because if you miss……
I am smart enough to know that I am too old and disabled to win a fist fight. I view ANY physical assault as a deadly threat. How is that viewed in the so called "justice" system?
