With the recent law passing of "stand your ground," I feel that this will only make things more complicated in the area of the right to carry. This law is basicaly giving people more insentive to just shoot and ask questions later. I support the right to carry to the fullest,and how California's gun laws are and I think that people need to just leave some things alone. My gun policy would be similar you would have the right to shoot someone in self defense but with the intent to only wound the person not kill them unless you absolutly have no other choice. Like the case involving the rapper Gucci Mane he was arrested on murder charges but because it was self defense and there was a witness to testify that the men indeed did rush into his condo the charges were dropped because the lack of evidence they needed. And because it was self defense and his life was threatened.

I agree with the self defense part. But what happens when there's no witness? I would hate to be in that position and be accused of murder due to self defense. I'm sure it has come up many times. But then you have the one bad seed who claims its self defense when it really wasn't. There's just no perfect world when we have so many people and so many choices available for killing or seriously hurting someone else.
You state you're ok with California's gun laws but in the same sentence say you support the right to carry to the fullest. Here's a link that you might want to read... http://www.dailypaul.com/185848/jerry-brown-signs-3-new-gun-laws-in-ca California laws don't allow you to carry unless you have a concealed weapons permit and that's only if you are granted that permit to begin with. Most states are "shall issue" states, I believe 42 is what I have found but California is a "may issue" state. "May issue" means they may or may not issue you a concealed permit, "shall issue" means that they will issue it when you apply. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concealed_carry_in_the_United_States#Shall-Issue
