Does Louisiana have a 'Stand Your Ground' law?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only in one's home

  4. Only in public places

The correct answer is: Yes

Louisiana does have a 'Stand Your Ground' law. This law allows individuals to use deadly force to defend themselves without any obligation to retreat first, as long as they are in a place where they have a legal right to be. This differs from the duty-to-retreat concept where individuals are required to attempt to retreat from a threatening situation before resorting to the use of deadly force. Louisiana's 'Stand Your Ground' law empowers individuals to protect themselves in various situations, both in public places and in their homes.
