In this instance, a good man acted and evil did not succeed.

Good old fashioned American wild west justice.

Horse stealin’ got ya shot.

The perp got what he deserved. When there are consequences for your actions, crime goes down.

As Ken Hamblin, the Black Avenger, once explained to a caller the justification for shooting a thief over a small television set: It's not what he was stealing, it was that he was stealing.....

Where’s the /sarc/ tag. I guarantee that there’s nothing on my property that you would want to die for. We have an excess of slime who have no understanding of private property and some of them haven’t been elected to public office yet.

“deadly force authorized in defense of an expensive water toy?”

It is not about the value of the property. What price freedom? As far as I am concerned, you try to rob me of my peace of mind, my freedom, then you should pay with your life, or a least a few years of life if you survive the initial contact.

About 3 decades ago a TX rancher told the biker who was attempting to steal his tractor to get off or he would shoot him. The biker told him to “expletive” himself and suffered the immediate consequences. In TX, deadly force can be used in defense of property to stop a felony.

Not so sure about FL but it should be the law of the land.
