LB3 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I would worry about being sued for doing all of that to the guy. It's sad that you're spot on saying that. The "kid" deserves what he got (in addition to any legal issues). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swnybillsfan Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 hopefully it gives the kid the message that he should keep his day job, or at least not pursue this line of "work" any further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve O Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) You have the right to protect your home... You are correct"Florida Statute 776.013 states that a person defending their home or occupied vehicle from an "unlawful" forceful entry or attempted forceful entry by another may use deadly force to stop the invasion or attempted invasion of the property. In such instances they need not retreat before using deadly force, they need not warn the intruder of their intent to shoot, and there is an absolute presumption that the person attempting the entry was doing so with the intent to commit a violent act (i.e. "forcible felony"), and that the defender is presumed to be acting in reasonable fear of death or great bodily harm to himself or herself. In other words – no arrest or prosecution is technically "legal" if someone without a right of entry or ownership is trying to break in, and you shoot them..." more here http://www.floridafi...efense-law.html Edited January 3, 2014 by Steve O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
