A “castle doctrine” law that clarified defending yourself when you’re in your own home and you’re confronted with a stranger is a lot different from Florida’s “stand your ground” law which lets you shoot anyone, anywhere!

(And good luck resisting the police in your home!)

I once woke up at night to my alarm going off. (It turned out to be a false alarm.)

But I didn’t run to my safe to get the gun! I opened the patio door of my bedroom and got out of my house! That seemed like the best way to protect myself.
