Stand Your Groend A freshman Republican lawmaker is hoping to bolster Tennessee's so-called "stand your ground" law, which provides protections to residents who use deadly force in cases of self-defense. Rep. Bruce Griffey, R-Paris, has introduced a measure that would give criminal and civil immunity to people who justifiably use or threaten to use force. The legislation would bring Tennessee, which already has a "stand your ground" law, in line with other states, such as Florida. More than two dozen states have some form of the law. Griffey's legislation would not apply to anyone who would use or threaten to use force against law enforcement officials.
