Duty to retreat?

[RMGOdirector]

No, there is no duty to retreat in Colorado law, nor in court precedent.

Our "Castle Doctrine" (the politically correct term the NRA adopted, but was originally called the "Make My Day" law) was passed in 1984, and is quite good. It provides civil and criminal immunity if three criteria are met.

Welcome to Colorado!

Thanks for the legal resource link!! Will definitely do some reading into it. As for Castle Doctrine being PC vs. the phrase Make My Day. When Florida issued a Stand Your Ground law everyone colloquially called it Right to Shoot. A few of the whiny anti-gunners complained it'd be like the gunfight at the OK Corral or something, but for the most part all it did was empower the law abiding citizen more. And yes, Colorado is definitely better than Florida!!
