In North Caroline, we have had "no duty to retreat" for quite a while.
GRNC helped put Castle Doctrine in place in 2011. This relieves you of civil liability if you comply with all the law's requirements.
Our HB.650 of 2011 brought this into law. It's worth taking a look at if your state does not have civil liability relief in place.
We're in the middle of another set of improvements right now.
HB.937 of 2013. This one will allow CCH holders to keep handguns in their vehicles on school campuses, and repeal the Jim Crow era Sheriff administered pistol permit system. It's close to final passage both houses now, and in conference between them as I write this.
