In which states store-owners face arrest for resisting ARMED ROBBERIES?Resisting rather than giving it all.?

Sure, this outrageous thing is not uncommon in England where you get arrested for injuring ARMED robbers & burglars in your home or place of business.They can SUE you and even have their legal costs covered by the "benevolent" government.So, in USA which states have the same liberal-infested system where you get arrested,harassed & lightened by some grands for fighting off armed robbers & injuring/killing them? I mean where eloquent liberal politicians and activists talk of "property is not worth defending with lethal force" and "store-owners shouldn't resist robbers" and "human rights of felons".

In the USA you make sure they are dead so they can't sue you!

None of the 50 USA states prevent RESISTING robberies, but you can't kill someone or use deadly force in defense of property. Resisting robbery and using lethal force aren't the same thing. In the USA, you can beat the robber senseless to prevent being robbed and/or to detain him for the police, but you can't use deadly force unless your life is in danger. The legal concept that store owners shouldn't resist robbers doesn't exist here. Some chain stores have a POLICY that employees shouldn't resist robberies, but that's for the safety of their employees, not because the law doesn't permit resisting.

I'd assume Florida for one a man is being charged with second degree murder for shooting his attacker in self defense while he was getting his own head stomped into the ground.
