Also, I live on a golf course, under this Florida law, I could potentially shoot a golfer coming in the yard to fetch his ball. That's an extreme example, but I'm saying that gives people with guns too much power.

exactly, which is why we give police the authority
why do we have doctors? plumbers? architects? becuz we ourselves CANNOT become expert in all subjects, so we let other people handle it for us. we trust them.
just as theres gonna be shitty cops, there are gonna be shitty doctors, teachers, MECHANICS, etc etc...
why is it that people always have problems with cops? you realize the 2nd most dangerous job in the US is the job of a corrections officer (jail). and what is the first? police officer.
that is why we let the cops do it - becuz they are fully aware of the bill of rights and all that jazz. becuz they are physically trained on how to remove weapons, trained to run TO the fire, instead of away from it.
to kill in self defense is one thing, but there are motherfuckers who will kill someone else for (as in the example earlier) burglary. sorry, but stealing != (Does not equal) murder. as with cops, and with anyone else.. its called REASONABLE force
which is why i said again - if they think the court systems are plugged up now, just wait! people are gona totaly take that law the wrong way, and ignorance of the law is no defense.
