Florida Sheriff tells residents to shoot looters that enter their home

Yes, go and break into someone house and see what happens to you.

I truly, and I mean this as sincerely as possible, I hope no one ever break into your home and put your life, worse yet the life of your family in danger. I see you as the type that would just let them assault you and your family just because you’re a coward and spineless weasel.

if i/family had no means of retreat, then i could indeed use lethal force.

however if i decided to not take an easy escape and use lethal force, just because i refuse to let them snatch my stuff, i could well end up in prison eating some of that ass-flavored grape jelly.

so i hope in return that YOU remember that, so that a burglary committed by someone else does not turn into a manslaughter charge for you 👆

Lets just say you came home and you saw a dude about to light your home on fire. Let us say nobody else was inside.

I'd shoot to stop him, how about you?

any opportunity for a toughguy power-fantasy. eh surt?

if no lives were in danger (sparing the arsonist) i'd not engage. i would call the police 👆

you would apparently choose the ass-flavored grape jelly

Stop with this tough guy stuff. I'm not a scientist, but I can say with some certainty it doesn't take much strength or toughness to pull a trigger.

And if this is happening during looting and rioting the cops might not get there in time, what then?

Why are people so upset with the idea of people protecting themselves from criminals breaking into their homes?

@Bash, Oh and how do you feel about pets? A lot of people consider them part of the family.

Lethal force to protect a pet, yay or nay?

meanwhile i've witnessed you fantasy-kill to the point of holocaust

you fantasy-shot me like 3 times so far

I've only said I'd shoot if people broke into my home or attacked me.

So you take the chance of losing all your possessions, being homeless? And what if the fire spreads to other homes before the firefighters shows up, and your lack of action ends up killing others?

What then?

already took action by calling the police

losing my home would be far preferable to doing b|tch-time. just my opinion.

I am a bit shocked you'd say this based on our past conversations.

Here's your reward for impressing me:

because it related to a discussion of law/crime. i don't engage in "what i would do, bro" keyboard tough-guy fantasies like you. sorry.

I don't even care about the homelessness and loss of sentimental objects so much.

I just think the "No lethal force" side is being unfair to anyone who hapoens to live in those homes being broken into, as if rational behavior is expected and demanded in such a situation.

You have no clue what's going on, who they are, why they're there. You will jump to conclusions.

Saying "Wait and see what they do", when your life is the one at risk by an unknown factor busting into your home, is not how I would react.

I'd grab the closest thing I can and fight for my life.

That's just me though.

pretty sure nobody argued that.

in the states, if you have a clear exit, without no other lives in the home at stake, you have to take it.

if you choose to kill unnecessarily, that could easily lead to b|tch-time.

surt for example, seems way too liberal over how he would use his firearm. if i had surt's compulsions i'd probably learn to suck dick just to prepare for the consequences. maybe practice on bananas...the big ones

IMO, if someone breaks into your home while you're there, it's entire reasonable and rational to assume you're in danger.

But, no, seriously.

This is how I picture your reaction when seeing a home invader at your home:

And this is how I picture Surtur if he sees a home invader in his home:
