OK, I think it’s time to educate the public on something that they have been so misled on in the media and from the anti-firearms, gun control, and other anti-rights groups.
With the recent shooting in Clearwater, the media and many others seem to be misquoting and misunderstanding Florida’s “Justifiable Use of Force” laws. So maybe a bit of simple education is in order.
First Florida does not have any law titled “Stand Your Ground Law” or “Castle Doctrine” law. Those are names given by the media and anti-self-defense legislators to a very simple, and for a law, easy to read law that governs when you can and cannot use force to defend yourself or another person. It also spells out when you can and cannot use force in defense of property and gives immunity from arrest and prosecution when self-defense is lawful. So, let’s break it down for everyone.

Outstanding article. Chris. Pretty much spells it out. I agree, that guy had not right to shove the man down. Everyone said he had not right to shoot, but we have no idea what happened immediately after he hit the ground. If he felt the attack was not going to end, then he had to right to stop the attack. The man was arguing with his girlfriend, and he took offense, and thought he could just shove the man to the ground. NO! You do not have the right to shove anyone. Period. That is assault, which authorizes the use of deadly force, especially if the attacker is bigger and younger.
