http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/11/15/passerby-shoots-kills-motorist-assaulting-deputy-after-traffic-stop.html A driver who attacked a Florida sheriff's deputy Monday morning was shot and killed by a bystander who warned him to stop beating the officer, according to a report. The incident began at around 9:30 a.m. when the Lee County deputy tried to make a traffic stop on Interstate 75 in Estero. Instead of complying, witnesses said the driver took off, reaching speeds of more than 100 miles per hour. The deputy chased the suspect onto an exit ramp, where a witness said the suspect got out of his car and assaulted his pursuer. |

Florida is really not the place that you want to attack a police officer in broad daylight. Folks around here are not fond of people who attack our peace officers and folks around here are quite often armed. Here is the story from another source. http://www.abc-7.com/story/33702410/suspect-dead-deputy-injured-during-shooting-on-i-75
And another source if you want different perspectives. http://www.winknews.com/2016/11/14/police-activity-blocks-i-75-sb-at-exit-123/ |

I am guessing that they guy who attacked the cop was not black otherwise this would probably be a much, much bigger story. Evens so, I don't know that this would fall under Florida's Stand Your Ground law since the officer was not family to the good Samaritan (that we know of). So this would have to be ruled justified homicide or justified use of force based upon the testimony of the police and others. I am sure that it will be ruled as justified it is just an interesting case. |

Only liberals can choose not to go down the road to widespread, systematic violence. | |
