Survival is step one. We’re step two.
Armed Attorneys Edwin Walker and Emily Taylor discuss the legal lessons from the armed citizen who responded during the tragic In-N-Out shooting in Twin Falls, Idaho.
Can regular training prepare you to act during a real-life emergency? What is the OODA Loop, and how can it help you make decisions under extreme pressure? When can an armed citizen legally use deadly force to protect complete strangers?
On August 1, 2026, a gunman opened fire at an In-N-Out Burger, killing three people and injuring seven others. Armed citizen Jordan Salinas and an off-duty Idaho state trooper reportedly returned fire, helping divert the shooter’s attention and allowing others to escape.
Jordan says he trains every weekend and relied on the OODA Loop—Observe, Orient, Decide and Act—when the shooting began.
Edwin and Emily explain the law of defense of others, why identifying the correct threat is critical and how reckless actions in a crowded environment could expose an otherwise well-intentioned defender to serious criminal liability.
Does carrying a firearm mean you should always intervene? When should you engage, disengage or become a good witness? And could one reckless shot turn a heroic response into a criminal case?
