No plan is perfect, but when I've watched "Guns and Gadgets," "Copper Jacket TV," and "Armed Scholar," explain why USCCA dropped it's members and why USCCA refused to provide services that they've promised, it was a no brainer. The Bible is clear. "Out of the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established." Three separate witnesses clearly established Attorneys On Retainer has a better plan. Do what's best for you. Do your homework, and "be convinced in your own mind."
