They're brains are still developing. It's not their fault. They're not responsible.

OK, I'll bite. I wasn't picturing the racism that you've imagined nor was I calling their families "criminal".
Are you sure that none of your friends or family or friends' families ("your people"
have driven drunk on occasion, run a stop light, supplied alcohol to a minor, stolen anything, taken illegal drugs??
No? Okay, than 'your people' are not criminals. Got it.
You know, shoot the first one or two and the rest will leave..............

Why should a victim of crime be able to defend themselves from potentially fatal beatings?

And a lot of them are going to find out that "Find my phone" apps are NOT their friends.
California is, by judicial precedent, a stand your ground state. There is no duty to retreat. Here's the applicable jury instruction:
505. Justifiable Homicide: Self-Defense or Defense of Another
The defendant is not guilty of (murder/ [or] manslaughter/ attempted murder/ [or] attempted voluntary manslaughter) if (he/she) was justified in (killing/attempting to kill) someone in (self-defense/ [or] defense of another). The defendant acted in lawful (self-defense/ [or] defense of another) if:
1. The defendant reasonably believed that (he/she/ [or] someone else/ [or] <insert name or description of third party> )
was in imminent danger of being killed or suffering great bodily injury [or was in imminent danger of being (raped/maimed/robbed/ <insert other forcible and atrocious crime> ];
2. The defendant reasonably believed that the immediate use of deadly force was necessary to defend against that danger;
AND
3. The defendant used no more force than was reasonably necessary to defend against that danger.
Belief in future harm is not sufficient, no matter how great or how likely the harm is believed to be. The defendant must have believed there was imminent danger of death or great bodily injury to (himself/herself/ [or] someone else). Defendant’s belief must have been reasonable and (he/she) must have acted only because of that belief. The defendant is only entitled to use that amount of force that a reasonable person would believe is necessary in the same situation. If the defendant used more force than was reasonable, the [attempted] killing was not justified.
When deciding whether the defendant’s beliefs were reasonable, consider all the circumstances as they were known to and appeared to the defendant and consider what a reasonable person in a similar situation with similar knowledge would have believed. If the defendant’s beliefs were reasonable, the danger does not need to have actually existed.
(The defendant’s belief that (he/she/ [or] someone else) was threatened may be reasonable even if (he/she) relied on information that was not true. However, the defendant must actually and reasonably have believed that the information was true.)
(If you find that <insert name of decedent/victim> threatened or harmed the defendant [or others] in the past, you may
consider that information in deciding whether the defendant’s conduct and beliefs were reasonable.)
(If you find that the defendant knew that <insert name of decedent/victim> had threatened or harmed others in the past, you may consider that information in deciding whether the defendant’s conduct and beliefs were reasonable.)
(Someone who has been threatened or harmed by a person in the past, is justified in acting more quickly or taking greater self-defense measures against that person.)
(If you find that the defendant received a threat from someone else that (he/she) reasonably associated with <insert name of decedent/victim>, you may consider that threat in deciding whether the defendant was justified in acting in (self-defense/ [or] defense of another).)
(A defendant is not required to retreat. He or she is entitled to stand his or her ground and defend himself or herself and, if reasonably necessary, to pursue an assailant until the danger of (death/great bodily injury/ <insert forcible and atrocious crime> ) has passed. This is so even if safety could have been achieved by retreating.)
(Great bodily injury means significant or substantial physical injury. It is an injury that is greater than minor or moderate harm.)
The People have the burden of proving beyond a reasonable doubt that the [attempted] killing was not justified. If the People have not met this burden, you must find the defendant not guilty of (murder/ [or] manslaughter/ attempted murder/ [or] attempted voluntary manslaughter)
California is a may issue state and the issuance of concealed carry permits is decided by the county sheriffs' office. Each county has its own rules. Rural counties such as Ventura county state that general self-defense meets the requirement of good cause. Other counties, such as Los Angeles (and i'm pretty sure SF and Alameda County) require an a more specific reason for good cause.
