Self-Defense and Domestic Violence

Some people need to understand the phrase, "It's over." Leesburg fatal shooting investigation continues - WFTV

Investigators said the man arrived unannounced while his ex-girlfriend was visiting the home. He then became involved in a physical confrontation with the homeowner and allegedly attempted to force his way inside.

This was a bad move on his part, as the Florida homeowner was armed. One shot was fired. The ex-boyfriend didn't survive.

Leesburg, Florida, is a 45 mile drive northwest of Orlando.

What did he think was going to happen in Florida? Did he not know that homeowners in Florida are heavily armed?

The Lake County Sheriff's Office is early in its investigation, but this sounds like self-defense to me. And of course the decisions about charges are made by the District Attorney, not the Sheriff. I listed domestic violence in the title to this post, because it has all the hallmarks of the "How dare you live without me!" attitude. Are there other explanations? Not that make sense to me.

Self-defense is a human right.
