Florida convicted felon charged after fatally shooting machete-wielding man in self-defense

I find it hard to believe this activity is new.
Quite possible this has been happening for a long time and we have been 'protected' by our media controlling betters.

#4 Had Brooks picked up a ballbat or a golf club and dispatched machete guy to an appropriate place, would Brooks still have a legal problem? Or is it just the firearm issue. Personnally, IMHO Brooks performed a public service.

#6 So what they are saying is that a convicted felon is not permitted to protect him/herself.

Dumb. I'm on this felon's side (and not because of his good looks and pretty hair).

#7 Machete attacks dropped substantially after Raiders of The Lost Ark hit theaters.
