OK, "many" is probably meaningless. At least four people with whom I am acquainted believe this is now the law nationwide, and they believe, varying from one individual to the other, that they can shoot you after giving fair warning, that they can shoot you if they feel threatened by your presence, and so on. And I don't even live in a SYG state, so I'm drawing the inference that a good number of people believe they have a lot more latitude to shoot first and ask questions later.
