Personally, I believe in the right to own a firearm and defend one's self and family from attack. However, I live in an apartment, and would not want to be the victim of a neighbor's accidental or negligent discharge. I also don't want to give someone a legal means to commit murder. So I don't like the stand your ground laws. They seem too vague. I read that they were passed to deter post-hurricane looting. Yet there are shootings that occur outside of such scenarios. I don't think that it is necessary to defend one's possessions with deadly force.
