Union Leader gets it WRONG!
"It allowed the use of deadly force anywhere one had the legal right to be, not just in one’s home or on one’s own property."

NO NO NO NO NO!
It is ALREADY legal to use deadly force to protect yourself from deadly force anywhere you have a right to be! All this bill did was remove the duty to attempt retreat (if safe to do so). That's IT. It is ALREADY legal to defend yourself with deadly force and it has been since the state began.
