Concealed Carry for Men & Women Regardless of how you view guns, please read this book with an open mind. Just know that learning about your rights under the US Federal and State law to carry a handgun and learning about how to carry it around with you will not make you a target, nor will it put you in any more danger than what we all face in our daily lives. But know that in the event that you find yourself in any situation, at least you have a tool that you can use to defend yourself.
If you watch the news, then I am sure you are keenly aware of the Florida incident that sparked the debate about the "Stand Your Ground" law. This law protects the rights of a citizen who wants to protect him or herself.
A concealed carry law affirms your right as a U.S. citizen to carry a personal weapon for your protection, but in most states, you must first apply and obtain a permit. Similarly, the "Stand Your Ground "law is also known as the "right to self-defense" law. This law typically states that an individual has no duty to retreat from any place where they have a lawful right to be and that they may use any level of force if they reasonably believe the threat rises to the level of being an imminent and immediate threat or danger of serious bodily harm and or death to them or their family.
Many states, having given it some thought, have laws that are categorized as stand-your-ground laws. This means should you find yourself being accosted, you don't have to retreat. You are well within your rights to use force.
It's as simple as that.
In this "Stand Your Ground" & Concealed Carry Book, I wanted to shed light on both how to carry concealed and how the "Stand Your Ground" law can enhance your protection level. As a proud US citizen, you do have the full and absolute right to protect yourself and your family under the current US and state laws. But, yes, there is a "but"; the state laws can vary when it comes to the "Stand Your Ground" law, and that is what I discuss in this book, along with some of what I discussed in my last book about what and how to carry a concealed weapon with you at all times.

The decision to carry a concealed weapon is intensely personal. Whatever you choose, I'm sure you'll be doing what you believe is best for yourself and your family.
For that reason, take the time to carefully review all sides of this issue, which will only grow larger in the public eye. One of the reasons for this, which we didn't touch much upon in this book, is the growing number of mass shootings. With each new episode and mounting fatalities from these shootings, more of the public will be discussing the causes of these situations and methods of curtailing these horrendous events.
Also, keep in mind that whatever you choose today doesn't necessarily mean you can't change your mind someday.
Be safe out there.
