Florida Gov. drafts bill allowing citizens to shoot looters & rioters

They are allowed to be shot at even if they themselves are not armed with anything life threatening?

God bless you always!!!

Not being armed doesn't mean someone's less of a threat. Rocks, bricks, bottles, skateboards, and bicycle locks are all favorite weapons of leftist protesters. Even one solidly-placed punch to the head can be fatal. Real life isn't like the old cowboy movies where everyone gets drunk, gets into a fistfight, then shakes hands and makes up.

Take for instance California during 2010: While there were 953 murders by use of a handgun and 250 by use of a knife, there were also 103 murders committed using hands, fists, or feet, and 201 by means of "other weapons." That could be rocks, bricks, bottles, boards, or whatever was available.

Table 20
 
That's good! In my case I wouldn't shoot someone over some minor incident but if they put me in fear of my or my wifes life or they are breaking in, trying to steal my car, etc, too bad. You gonna get shot.

Texas has one of the better Castle Doctrine laws on the books. The use of deadly force is also allowed for property theft:

Texas Penal Code § 9.42. Deadly Force to Protect Property

A person is justified in using deadly force against another to protect land or tangible, movable property:
(1) if he would be justified in using force against the other under Section 9.41 ;  and
(2) when and to the degree he reasonably believes the deadly force is immediately necessary:

(A) to prevent the other's imminent commission of arson, burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, theft during the nighttime, or criminal mischief during the nighttime;  or

(B) to prevent the other who is fleeing immediately after committing burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, or theft during the nighttime from escaping with the property;  and
(3) he reasonably believes that:

(A) the land or property cannot be protected or recovered by any other means;  or

(B) the use of force other than deadly force to protect or recover the land or property would expose the actor or another to a substantial risk of death or serious bodily injury.

PENAL CODE CHAPTER 9. JUSTIFICATION EXCLUDING CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY
 
I love our Governor. He has the right set of values. If that BLM and ANTIFA filth brings their terrorism here they are going to get more than they bargained for.


Florida Governor Ron DeSantis 'to allow armed citizens to shoot suspected looters and rioters' who target businesses in an expansion of the state's Stand Your Ground law
  • Gov Ron DeSantis drafted 'anti-mob' legislation that would expand Florida's Stand Your Ground law
  • It would allow armed citizens to shoot suspected looters or anyone engaged in 'criminal mischief' that disrupts a business
  • The proposal came in response to months of protests against police brutality which have sometimes been accompanied by violence and looting
  • It would also make it a third-degree felony to block traffic during a protest
  • Drivers who claim to have unintentionally killed or injured protesters who block traffic would be immune from prosecution
  • DeSantis pledged in September to crack down on 'violent and disorderly assemblies' that occurred after the death of George Floyd killed by a white cop
  • His proposal sparked outcry from critics who called it dangerous, unconstitutional and 'clearly political'

About time. Shoot to kill the assholes and get them the hell out of society and the gene pool forever.

Liberals always freak out when I tell em I can shoot someone legally for trying to steal my property here in The Great State of Texas.
Some flat out say I'm lying.

Citizens have a right to protect their homes and businesses

God bless you always!!!

Fists and feet ARE life threatening. I could quite easily beat you to death with my bare hands.

People are beaten/raped/murdered by people who aren’t wielding a weapon. You know that, right?
Just so we are clear... people looting your store/house, and/or burning it down should be allowed to do their thing without you intervening unless they are armed with a gun or knife. That’s your position?

More winning from the Sunshine State. It must be nice to have a Governor who isn't a nutless POS like the one we got stuck with.

"Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has drafted “anti-mob” legislation that would expand the state’s Stand Your Ground law – a move that some worry would allow armed citizens to shoot and potentially kill anyone they suspect of looting...."

"It also allows for death to be the punishment for a property crime..."

"The draft legislation also includes measures that would make protesting which disrupts the public by blocking traffic, a third degree felony..."

"Additionally the law would allow the state to withhold funds from local governments that cut police budgets..."

Well that's good news.

My position is we have a Second Amendment and should have no security problems in our free States. Don't grab guns, grab gun lovers and Regulate them Well!
better yet, regulate criminals and stop releasing them like you criminals are doing daily.
If people like yourself would stop arming these idiots they probably wouldn`t have been in jail to begin with. As soon as they`re released they`ll have another gun and that`s on you and your fellow gun fondlers.

Bringing back Jim Crow is a hit in Florida. Shocking! I`m sure they loved those 2 Georgia hillbillies who were filmed hunting and shooting an unarmed jogger and they want the same privilege.

How does that even remotely do what you're saying it does?
Are you saying black criminals will be at a higher risk of being shot now?

We keep arming them?
Interesting theory. Absolutely retarded, but interesting.
Tell me, it is illegal for felons to possess a firearm, right?
So they aren’t buying them from gun stores. They can’t get them online. And I’ve never known a single person who has sold a gun to somebody shady.
Most funded by felons are stolen or smuggled.
Why would hun owners, probably the most law abiding group of people you can find, “arm” criminals?

Jesus Christ, you really swallow that media bullshit like a porn star chugs cock.
Looking at this and your other retarded post in this thread alone, it’s clear you aren’t a person to be taken seriously.

He’s a dumbass.
Solid money says he is either a northeast or west coast lib. The indoctrination is strong.
I’d pay money to see some open carry around him, just to see him blast ass right there in his pants.

Ok, well I guess we can sort of agree there. Not a big fan of the NRA.
