[QUOTE="Burk Cornelius, post: 828888, member: 3071"] I guess we are off the original topic but since we are here anyway.......... [I][B]TITLE 21 § 1289.25. Physical or deadly force against intruder.[/B] (D) A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force, if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another [U]or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.[/U][/I] Now, would I advocate use of force to prevent a felony, typically not because of most of the above stated reasons, too many unknowns. BUT in a case where you are certain of the situation, then yes you can use deadly force to prevent a felony. It doesn't specify that it has to be a felony against your person. Often you hear people mention: family members, friends, employees when talking about who you can defend. I find those words nowhere in the self defense act. I think that is either a wives tale or there is some misinformation out there. BC [/QUOTE]
