It sounds wrong because it's not right. Unfortunately, that's how it's being treated. I have read several horror stories about a home owner with a CHL in Texas being robbed, killing the intruder, and then being put on trial for murder. In a very similar situation, a home owner without a CHL is generally not hassled, because they supposedly, "don't know any better". It's a fvcked up situation that punishes responsible gun owners
