SENATE SUMMARY
3 Provides that a person may use force, including deadly
force, against an intruder or attacker in a dwelling,
4 residence, or vehicle under specified circumstances.
Creates a presumption that a reasonable fear of death or
5 bodily injury exists under certain circumstances. Creates
a presumption that a person acts with the intent to use
6 force or violence under specified circumstances. Provides
that a person is justified in using deadly force.
7 Declares that a person is not under a duty to retreat if
the person is in a place where he or she has a right to
8 be. Provides that a person is immune from criminal
prosecution and civil action for using deadly force.
9 Authorizes a law enforcement agency to investigate the
use of deadly force but prohibits the agency from
10 arresting the person unless the agency determines that
probable cause exists showing that the force that was
11 used was unlawful. Directs the court to award attorney's
fees, court costs, loss of income, and other expenses
12 under specified circumstances. Revises the circumstances
that justify the use of force by an aggressor.
13
If the same sorts of idiocy occur next year at Ocala FG as did this year, we might end up with a couple-three dead idiots. Darn it. Disciples of Little Hawk would do well to take note of this new Florida Law, and heed Robert Heinlein's dictum that "An armed society is a polite society."
ScatOfCrow, I know that you follow this forum regularly. As you are a wannabe Florida Legislator and Rainbow, I would be interested in your comments on this. Not that I'm likely to believe them, since the Truth does not know how to come out of your mouth. But I would still be interested.
