In ruling the law unconstitutional, Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Milton Hirsch said Monday that the changes should have been crafted by the Florida Supreme Court instead of by the Legislature.

So the judicial branch is supposed to "craft" legislation?

What is the legislative branch supposed to do?

My guess? Blow smoke up proles butts to keep them thinking they voted for some Constitutional governance, plus clean the Womynz room at the courts building.

Stand and enthusiastically applaud the judges, or be carted off to a labor camp for socialist re-education!!!/s;)

Under Florida’s state constitution, it is the state Supreme Court which creates courtroom procedure; the judge interpreted the legislative directive that prosecutors must prove clear and convincing evidence that someone did not use force in self defense before moving out of the immunity phase and to a jury trial.

As the legislature did not change the laws in regards to the charge of murder or manslaughter and instead inserted directives into what must take place in a courtroom, I think the judge’s decision here will be upheld on appeal. The legislature should have modified the laws instead.

I’d also suggest modifying the laws to include stripping both officers and prosecutors of any civil immunity and permit them to be personally sued in the case of egregious and malicious prosecution over actions of self defense.

I’d imagine that would be far more effective than merely changing the law to make it harder to prosecute someone for defending themselves.
