I don’t know about that Florida law. But I would make a change to your statement above. You won’t always face a judge. However, you will certainly be looked at by a DA.

Anyway, your overall point is well taken. Even if you gotta do what you gotta do, you’re in for no small hassle.

That simply isn’t true. The Castle Doctrine has held up in several states and cases where people have killed slime who broke into their home without getting charged

A civil lawsuit by relatives of the deceased is more of a certainty . Criminal families know how to exploit the system.

Here's the challenge ... how do you program autonomous vehicles to know when it is not safe to stop? There has to be an override that allows for stopping when grandma is a bit slow in the crosswalk, but hits the gas when it's just a bunch of antifa/blm/commies rioting in the streets again.

Be polite. Ask them to move but be polite. If they still won’t move, get another drive and you both be polite. If they continue doing it, punch them in the face, drag them off the road and break the legs. But be polite.

Indeed.

In my humble opinion, if you are blocking traffic for kicks and grins you should be considered as "asking for it". Most people are disinclined to just run you over however accidents, as you point out, will happen.

For my part I would and have attempted to go around usually. However there was a time when I laid on the horn and hit the gas while my passenger fired a warning shot. Necessity sometimes exist.

New diagnosis in DSM 5-6 -

Walking in Traffic / Roadway / Freeway Syndrome

Treatment - GPS ankle monitors - the monitors set to go off if client strays off the sidewalk.

Ankle monitors will: 1) shriek to high heaven, alerting nearby people

2) dispatch men in white coats w/ Thorazine. Also Thorazine will be mandated if GPS tampered with at all.

Ammonia.

It’s cheap and effective in stunning someone.

Just open a bottle and take a careful sniff.

What I don’t get is this. Blocked a road is illegal, so why aren’t there cops clearing them out and arresting them?
