Not as far as I know! I thought that was the defense in TX...
Actually, in NC, we still have the "Castle Doctrine." If someone's in the process of breaking into your home with the intent of committing a felony, you have the right to shoot them through the door, window, wall, etc. Once they are inside the home, the rules change.
That's why the first cartridge in my 12 gauge is a slug. After that, 00 buck shot.
Am I mean?
