PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
Yep, unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the only chase down someone and end up killing them as self defense case in Florida.
They had the guy who wrote the law on NPR, he kept saying it was a good law but it is the fault of the cops and court system they keep letting people off by using this law the wrong way. Neither case was what he was intending. However, he feels better to err on the side of letting citizens kill others rather than the way the laws used to be where your duty was to de-escalate the situation rather than escalate it until you have an excuse to shoot someone.
I understand wanting to let people protect themselves, but I think using laws to let people chase down people to set up a violent confrontation isn't really going to get rid of violence on the street like this guy is so concerned about.
I do wonder how long it will take before innocent people that tend to be targeted start arming themselves just to defend themselves against neighborhood watch people or others that decide they need to play hero.
