Emphasis added. Note the influence of Garner v. Tennessee.
Without consulting an experienced Florida trial attorney, I would not feel comfortable using the threat of deadly force to hold anyone, unless it were clearly immediately necessary to protect loss of life.
There's much to lose, and in my mind, little to gain.

Amen. Many people simply don't understand just how limited you are in using deadly force as a result of Tennessee v. Garner.
