Florida's law:
A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.
No "Castle Doctrine" needed in Fla. If you have a right to be there, you have no duty to retreat, period!
I think this is the way to go....Mich. needs this, common law is getting to be a forgotten culture all together!......Hey Manhole...where are ya?
