SNIP

Changes to the state’s Castle Doctrine Law that take effect Thursday do not require people to run before they fight back with a gun. The law expands the use of reasonable deadly force to include cars and workplaces if a person under attack fears imminent death or serious bodily harm.

SNIP

The changes also ease the civil liability gun owners can face if they shoot and kill or injure someone committing a crime against them.

SNIP

Also starting Thursday, North Carolina will expand handgun permit reciprocity so that a valid concealed handgun permit issued in another state will be valid in North Carolina, regardless of whether that state accepts a North Carolina issued permit.


Another win for pro-RKBA. Bad news for NC's violent criminals.
