Being pushed is not grounds under the law to shoot anyone...
Trying to protect yourself or another person from death or serious bodily harm;
Trying to prevent a forcible felony, such as rape, robbery, burglary or kidnapping.
It is clearly outlined.
The only real change in the self defense laws in Florida, is that you are no longer under any obligation to retreat from the situation if you are legally within your rights to be where you are.
Ah, okay. So do you think it is fine if someone uses lethal force when they could've resolved the situation peacefully (Even if serious bodily harm is at play)? Say for instance they have the opportunity to get in their car and drive away.
