I think it's overly broad. I have no objection to the use of deadly force to prevent homicide, rape, or an ongoing aggravated assault, but treason, stalking, burglary, or robbery? That seems excessive.
If I'm reading this correctly, it would authorize me to kill the guy who groped me in the hobby store last year (sexual battery), or the purse snatcher who took my purse and knocked me down a few years back (robbery with use of physical force). Neither of those boys deserve to die for those crimes, and it certainly shouldn't be my decision.
