Nope.
If I were unarmed, the cops would just arrest both of us for fighting on the street and try to sort it out later, but as a holder of CC license, I’m required to deescalate the situation. I am held to a higher standard.
I know things vary by state but even under stand your ground, you are on thin ice if the beating stopped and you get out of your car with a gun. You have just done a little more than stand your ground.
Wrong. If I want to go into the store I’ve pulled up to, I’m not required to leave just because somebody assaulted me and then walked away. I can still get out of my car, with my legal gun, and head toward the store. If the assailant backtracks and is clearly about to assault me again, I get to shoot him. It’s in the rulebook.
Sure, I have the option of surrendering to his demands, but I’m not very good at that. I can never seem to master that whole useless little girl routine of whimpering “Oh me, oh my, what ever shall I do?”
If I am assaulted, I will defend myself. I don’t care if the assailant, you, and the whole of liberal society get offended. I’m not giving up. And I don’t have to.
