Florida governor Ron DeSantis has drafted a bill to expand the state's "stand your ground" laws, proposing that people be allowed to shoot "looters." As the Miami Herald reports, DeSantis' new "anti-mob" legislation sees him propose an expansion of the list of "forcible felonies" under Florida's self-defense law, including criminal mischief that causes any "interruption or impairment" of a business.
The draft explicitly mentions "rioters" and "looters," allowing citizens to use force against people who might be looting within 500 feet of a "violent or disorderly assembly." This could make protests especially dangerous in the state, where outside agitators have been known to incite violence and theft.
GOD Bless Florida.
