realized the flimsyness of your argument, huh? loitering on private property does not warrant brandishing a firearm, imo. if you do, at least take some cover. this guy had bad tactics if he was trying to get into a gun fight in which he was outnumbered. again, your "castle doctrine" doesn't pass the smell test. but neither of us was there so all we can do is monday morning quarterback.

Well thank God you're not in the legislature or courts.

Hardly.

I am a local. You are not.

I possess a Florida CCW, and so am familiar with our laws concerning the application of deadly force. You are not.

I am familiar with, and associated with, the news organization that reported the story in the first place. You are not.

I know what I'm talking about. You do not.

loitering on private property does not warrant brandishing a firearm, imo.

Does "loitering" encourage drug solicitation...five times?

...your "castle doctrine" doesn't pass the smell test.

I submit your ability to "smell" is compromised by the location of your head.
