(49,445 posts)The same restrictions are also in place (in some localities) for lethal force used in your home, and even for simply owning a gun in your home. If you don't retreat, you're charged. And even if you follow the law, you can be sued in civil court by the family of the guy that just violated your home and threatened your family.
My issue is that you don't have any problem coming down extremely hard on people that legally carry concealed in public and have to use their gun to defend themselves, while coming down much less hard on the suspects that are threatening them. As well as with making the potential consequences of legally carrying concealed so onerous that people figure it's better to be mugged and assaulted than to carry a gun or other effective means of self-defense.
And it's not because CCW permitees have a habit of waving guns at people for taking their parking space or forgetting extra tomato on their sandwich, or for deliberately going into dangerous situations so they can legally kill somebody. You just don't like it. You don't like the people that do it, you don't like what they stand for, and you want to stop their behavior.
