Forces Self Defense What is important about self defense?
What information would you put in if you were to create a PowerPoint presentation on the fact that a person who uses excessive force in an act of self defense,shouldn't have to go to jail.
Civilians do not have the same mission as law enforcement officers have. Police Officers have the right by law to use a little bit more force than the offender.Police are required by their mission and policy to respond to, and deal with, circumstances that may require use of force. Civilians are not required to get involved in any situation requiring the use of force.Civilians have the right to use "reasonable force" (as do the police) if their perception is that an adversary is trying to hurt someone. And again in my personal opinion a person should not use excessive force. Lets say that some guy pushed me ...so what should i do get a gun and shoot him? Put the use of force model in ur presentation..i live in canada so maybe is a bit different ..I am taking Law and Security - Corrections. There is a use of force model for Corrections. Hope it helps.
Does the "Stand Your Ground" law apply to unarmed self-defense as well?
Does the "Stand Your Ground" law also apply to using self-defense with your hands? What I mean by Stand Your Ground Law is the self-defense law they have in Florida states there's no duty to retreat and you can meet force with force as long as you're in a place you have a right to be. The law also protects against lawsuit and prosecution. Does the Stand Your Ground law apply to unarmed self-defense with your fists as well as with a firearm or conealed carry?
Yes, it does, although it does not allow excessive force. If you are attacked and choose not to move, you may defend yourself using force. You may NOT continue to beat the person after they have stopped attacking, nor may you run them down and beat them. Once they stop attacking, you must stop 'defending.
