The Florida Castle law isn't all it is cracked up to be. A few years ago, a guy north of Orlando heard his front door get kicked in, he came out of his bedroom with a pistol, and shot the first guy that came at him, who happened to be a 15 year old.
The cops locked him up, and they prosecuted him for murder, because he should not have been in fear for his life since he was armed and the 15 year old was not.
If I remember right, they ended up getting him for 2nd degree manslaughter.
