KY gun laws are VERY baised toward self protection.

There was a recent case where a well known hot dog vendor (Downtown Louisville) killed a man in a road rage incident. He was the one that followed the other guy and verbally confronted him, but when the other guy came at his car with a baseball bat and struck the car, the hot dog vendor “feared for his physical health (not just life)” and pulled his legal CC gun and shot the man dead.

It went to court. He was vindicated.

In KY, you don’t even need to fear for your life, only that you may be seriously harmed. And the first one to threaten by or use any kind of force is the one in the wrong.

For this woman, the case is open and shut. It’s pure self defense.

I also carry now. It’s in my door panel. Easy reach. It’s even legal WITHOUT CC in KY, though I have CC.

Sounds like he got away with one, having followed and "verbally confronted" (threatened?) the other guy.
