However, Florida does have one unique law that stands out. The state’s “Stand Your Ground” law is unlike the self-defense laws in other states, which state that you must retreat first before using a firearm, knife or other type of deadly force. This means that before you shoot or attempt to ki1l the person, you must back away. You must run or otherwise try to escape your attacker before using a weapon. The weapon must be your last resort.
Florida’s “Stand Your Ground” law does not require this. The law allows a person to use deadly force anytime they are at risk of bodily harm or they feel their life is threatened. A person does not have a duty to retreat. As long as they are not trespassing onto someone else’s property, they can use deadly force to defend themselves. They can use a weapon in a home, outside, in a parking lot, in a restaurant, movie theater and other areas. They can use guns if they are in areas where concealed weapons are allowed and they have a proper permit.
