Yes, of course. @1775usmc and I are talking about something else unstated. Namely, these days cops who have shot an attacking bad guy ARE expected to render first aid to bad guy if he has been stopped but is still surviving. 1775usmc says he wouldn't do that. And I agree that neither would I.The idea isn't applying it to the guy you shot - its to save the life of an innocent who got shot, or maybe yourself. You probably won't be administering it to yourself - but a bystander could.
If I were conscious and the injured party I would certainly try to use tourniquet on myself. Or instruct a bystander to use it on me.
