if someone invades your home you have the right to self defend (the homeowner could not see if he was armed or not)

Yeah, lots of things usually add up in cases like this. Was he stabbed in the front or back, was it inside the house, where in the house, and other things. Laws are kinda mixed about this subject throughout the world. There's one thing that kinda just confuses the hell out of me about breaking into a place though, its illegal but he has the right to do it safely. Just like that guy who fell down the skylight and cut his leg open on the kitchen knife and sued and won money from the person he was there to try and rob! Its all just bs in this day and age really.
The person in question who get executed was a teenager. He still had hope of redemption. The kid was on teh floor bleeding from a bulletwound to the head. The pharmacist (happened a pharmacy, obviously) went back into a store. Reoaded, walked to the kid on the floor and shoot him. It was a cold blooded execution.
The fool of pharmacist ruined his life with that lone act. He deserved it.
Wow, yea I have a feeling there not going to charge the home owner.
As they said they're aren't sure who was armed and armed with what. If someone breaks into your house with a knife the only thing you should attack him with is a knife or with something of equivalent damage. If someone breaks into your house with a gun then it's pretty much fair game for whatever you can get your hands on. This way you can't really get charged because of an idiot burglar. He had a knife I grabbed a knife and it was a fair fight he lost and that's his fault.
you're not supposed to kill someone unless they kill you first. it's common sense.
The thing is in most first world countries, if the courts come to the conclusion that you used excessive force your facing jail time. Personally I think its retarded. But then again this stuff really is a case by case basis.
If a burglar brakes into a house ,and lets say who ever was inside panicked, when the burglar threatened him. Victim ran into kitchen, burglar chased after him/her. Victim gets knifes defends themselves, burglars dies. The victim shouldn't face any charges.
Burglar is stealing from a shed. Homeowner gets gun, burglars runs for it, homeowner takes careful aim shots the guy in the head. Courts will decide that he used wwwwaaayyyyy too much excessive force. Facing jail time.
unless you've had training with a knife, it's a very poor weapon for you. real life isn't like the movies. i got attacked by a guy with a knife and he ended up with a broken arm and missing teeth, i got stabbed in my lower back in my pelvis which literally did very little damage. he stabbed me and dropped it.
don't assume the person with the knife doesn't know a whole helluva lot more what to do with it than you do. plan on him killing you and act accordingly. i could have been stabbed about 1" higher and lost a kidney
Haha I was looking for a video on it to just quote him word for word from the movie.
OT: I read about a burglererererer who broke into someones garage and locked himself in there for 10 days. At the time the family was on vacation and locked all the doors etc... Well aparently the burglerererere couldn't find a way out so he had to live off of dog food which was in the garage till the family got home. When the family arrived and found him, they had him arrested and charged for burgerlerlerlelrelrey. The burglererer sued them right after for lack of proper food. When it all finished, the burglereerer won the case and made bank off of the family.
(Just FYI I cannot spell burglar for the life of me)
The actual right as to when and under what circumstances you are allowed by law to defend yourself differ from state to state in the US! In my state, they have to be at least 6 feet inside your residence and be a risk to life and limb before you are allowed to defend yourself, and by that they mean restraining the criminal to incapacitating him! You cannot beat him until he unconscious and then kill him regardless if you were in danger or not, you will be facing involuntary manslaughter charges at the least if not murder charges! If it is in your defense that you accidentally kill him you still will be charged w/ involuntary manslaughter! There is one time and under one circumstance only that you can lawfully kill another human being and that is as a military personnel during war while participating in said war! If done at any other point you are subject to the full force of the law! You cannot legally kill anyone at anytime as a civilian and not have a day in court to at the very least prove your case of defense!
Just as nations have the right to defend against aggressive foreign invaders, so too should that right apply to your home. If the only legal course of action is established to be "run away", then there's really no point in owning a home, locking your doors, or heck, not just taking what you want from others to bring with. Personal property is an extension of myself, and I have a right to defend anything on my property, be it my car, my dog or my favorite necktie. If I can not have this expectation as a property owner, then we might as well let the government own everything for us.
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.
How can you tell if there's 1 or more burglars? If they just want to steal your stuff or kill and rape you? How can you be truely sure he doesnt have a gun on him? There's no chance to take, the burglar got wat he deserved.
