Florida Governor Moves to Allow Citizens to Shoot 'Looters'

Florida Governor Moves to Allowbr Citizens to Shoot 'Looters'.br Florida governor Ron DeSantis has drafted new “anti-mob”br legislation to expand the state’s Stand Your Ground law.br According to the ‘Miami Herald,’ the proposalbr would allow armed citizens to shoot “looters.”.br The draft defines looting as burglary withinbr 500 feet of a “violent or disorderly assembly.”.br The proposal also justifies br the use of force against people br engaged in “criminal mischief” that causes br “interruption or impairment” of a business. .br In addition, DeSantis’ proposal would make it abr third-degree felony to block traffic during a protest. .br Drivers who claim to unintentionallybr kill or injure protestors blocking trafficbr would also receive immunity. .br Denise Georges, a former Miami-Dadebr County prosecutor, said the proposal wouldbr allow vigilantes to “justify their actions.”.br It also allows for death to be the punishmentbr for a property crime — and that is cruel andbr unusual punishment.
