Florida is exactly what the law says it is. But as always everything is open to interpretation and that exact moment in time.
If you draw a weapon, you better be damn sure it is correct to do so. What happens in that split second can go on for years in Court!
Take the recent case of the couple who stood outside their home the guy with a rifle and the dumb wife POINTING a hand gun!
No reason for her to point it, and that's why its all a mess now. Heck they are even lawyers!
The shooting at the convenience store case by the guy arguing over the handicap parking is another example. To me he was assaulted and in fear of his life. he shot the guy dead. Sheriff said it was a justified but after "political" maneuvers he was tried and convicted.
So you never know!
