Neighbors arm each other vs Looters in Fla

[42rocker]

The Stand your ground Law is interesting and has many problems. If you or your family are in fear and you pull out a gun and make the problem or away. Then you flashed a gun in public and go to jail. If you fire a warning shot then you go to jail, see above story. If you shoot and kill them, guess what? All is good. Of course your lawyer may have to work on that. Law has some major problems and people need to understand the law better, BOTH sides the person with the problem and the Legal folks. That said it is only for in fear of your life not your property. You can not legally shoot someone stealing your stuff. Which just happened in Lakeland, Fla.. One of the Lakeland Goverment folks shot someone stealing in a store and is now in jail, unless strings are pulled will be staying in jail for a while.
Please Think Twice about what you are going to do if something happens.
