Yes it does, and I have done alot of research on it because I plan to get my CCW when I turn 21 anyways.
No, If I'm being robbed and a guy has a gun to my head, the last thing I'm going to do is pull a gun out on him. But if someone robs me, runs, and starts shooting, you better believe I'll return fire. I know there are times when you need to keep your cool and give them what they want, but there are also times where they're not gonna be happy until your dead.
im glad you understand that.
but im sure you are sol on getting a concealed weapons permit before you turn 21.
