Finally a Smart Judge

It looks like this judge deserves the term "Your Honor" for his decision supporting property rights.

SARASOTA -- John Coffin won't spend any more time in jail for beating up two sheriff's deputies inside his house, striking one in the head with a Taser gun he took from the other.

Circuit Judge Rick De Furia said at Coffin's trial Tuesday that he doesn't condone the violence against the deputies.

But Coffin, 56, had a right to defend his family and property because the deputies had no right to be in Coffin's house in the first place, De Furia said.

Good for him. Lacking a warrant the cops had no right to be there, and were criminals and deserved their ass whoopin.
