Which of these locations would NOT legally require a CCDW permit to carry a concealed weapon in Kentucky?

  1. Your own home

  2. A state park

  3. A school zone

  4. A government building

The correct answer is: Your own home

The location that would NOT legally require a CCDW permit to carry a concealed weapon in Kentucky is your own home. This is because the state of Kentucky recognizes the Castle Doctrine, which allows individuals to use deadly force to protect themselves and their home from an intruder. The other options, such as a state park, a school zone, and a government building, are all considered public areas and therefore require a CCDW permit in order to carry a concealed weapon. It is important to note that even within the context of the Castle Doctrine, the use of deadly force is only justified if there is a reasonable belief of the need for self-defense.
