Lock and Load!

Florida is about to become safer and a whole lot more polite.

People in Florida will be allowed to kill in self-defense on the street without trying to flee under a new law passed by state politicians on Tuesday.
The Florida House of Representatives, citing the need to allow people to "stand their ground," voted 94-20 to codify and expand court rulings that already allow people to use deadly force to protect themselves in their homes without first trying to escape.
The new bill goes further by allowing citizens to use deadly force in a public place if they have a reasonable belief they are in danger of death or great bodily harm.

Makes sense to me. One of the things that makes America unique is our right to private property. We should be entitled to defend that property, unencumbered by some ridiculous notion that you need to try to flee first. Like its a good idea to turn my back on some guy who is contemplating doing me harm.

Of course, there was the typical left-wing weenie-head, Chicken Little panic involking the Wild West and the OK Corral symbolism, none of which is statistically proven ANYWHERE gun laws are relaxed.

Just watch the crime stats drop!
