Another great reason for living in Florida - the Sherriff says it's okay to shoot burglars...

PACE, Fla. – A Florida sheriff invited a homeowner who shot at 

a would-be robber to attend a gun safety course to “learn to shoot a lot better” and “save the taxpayers money.”

Santa Rosa County Sheriff Bob Johnson made the comments during a news conference last Thursday regarding the arrest of a 32-year-old man who was breaking into houses in Pace, which is near Pensacola in Florida's Panhandle.

Multiple residents called 911 last Wednesday to report the break-ins and deputies quickly set up a perimeter, Johnson said. The suspect was jumping over fences and breaking into homes as deputies tried to catch him. 

We have a saying here in Florida: 'The further north 

you go, the further south you get'.

“We don’t know which homeowner shot at him. I guess they think that they did something wrong, which they did not," Johnson said. 

"If someone is breaking into your house you're more than welcome to shoot at them in Santa Rosa County. We’d prefer that you do actually."

He added that the sheriff's office conducts a gun safety course every other Saturday.
