Thats why Bullard says he refiled a bill that aims to, in his words, tie up any loose ends that most Floridians are concerned about. That includes explicitly defining that an aggressor is someone engaged in an overt act of violence, such as brandishing a weapon
...but, it would also again switch up that aggressor language so that one could not be provoked and then upon provocation, choose to defend themselves. And, then the person who did the provoking is able to use deadly forcethat little loophole is what led to the unfortunate acquittal of George Zimmerman, he added.
The aggressor term is not fully defined in Simmons and Smiths billthough Smith says hes working to get that included in the finished product.

You are assuming that facts actually matter to liberals. That is why fantasy works so well for them.

It's worse than that. If someone "thinks" you dissed him, whether you objectively did or not, they you can't defend yourself when he attacks you for the imagined "dis".Pre-emptive self defense requires that if you think that he thinks you dissed him, you must attack and disable him before it becomes necessary to ward off an assault.

The libs want everyone dependent upon the government and the police to protect them. They do not want private citizens to be able to use deadly force with a firearm at all to defend themselves. Thus, getting rid of SYG laws is just a first step in that process using falsehoods.

Dissing someone is just being white and breathing in many places.

My experiences have been a bit different, I guess. Numerous dummies have volunteered to be in a quiet, safe jail cell, rather than wearing themselves out trying to climb my mountain. Just think quick Marine linebacker with zero sense of humor for Trayvon style punks——Semper Fi
