I carry everytime that I go to the Varsity. Why? Because I can and because there are too many people that are out there to start trouble. I'm not saying that you are, but they are out there.
Part of the new bill that the Senate passed yesterday. The House should pass it soon as well.
"(a) A person is justified in threatening or using force against another and does not have a duty to retreat when and to the extent that he or she reasonably believes that such threat or force is necessary to defend himself or herself or a third person against such otheŕs imminent use of unlawful force; however, except as provided in Code Section 16-3-23, a person is justified in using force which is intended or likely to cause death or great bodily harm only if he or she reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent death or great bodily injury to himself or herself or a third person or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony."
