: P. Tierney wrote in INPyb.186867$Dw6.710538@attbi_s02: I've read some news stories of people in the UK who have defended themselves from criminals, using firearms to do so, and thusly have had incured rather extreme penalties. Much more than the criminal who attacked them. Got any links? A google search fails to turn up the articles I remember reading a couple years ago. I failed to save the urls so finding the articles at this point would be difficult. It's worth a look. Something that seems unjust on the surface of things isn't always so when the details are explored. He might be thinking of the Tony Martin case. I don't remember the details, but Tony Martin lived in an isolated farmhouse. When two youths broke into his house, he shot them as they were leaving, killing one. After suffering repeated burglaries. OTOH,a Miami,FL shopkeeper,after suffering repeated burglaries to his small appliance store,set up an electrified grate indoors,next to the roof vent used as the crook's entrance.The crook had made several trips in and out before completing the circuit and electrocuting himself.The police prosecuted him for manslaughter but he was acquitted by a jury. You'll probably be able to get more details if you search on news.bbc.co.uk. -- Jim Yanik,NRA member jyanik-at-kua.net |

Carol Saxton wrote in message ...
Mellon, 44, reported the shooting, Steen said. He was charged with murder, assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury, assault with a deadly weapon and discharging a weapon into occupied property. He was held in jail without bond. ********************************** http://www.cnn.com/2003/LAW/11/29/te....ap/index.html Since the daily death toll caused by speeders far exceeds that one incident, I think he should be allowed to plead temporary insanity if the teens' behavior was chronic and he'd asked them to stop many times. People who use cars for ego trips, or to harass other drivers and neighborhood residents are a lower life form, in my opinion, and do not deserve to be treated as "innocent victims." Here's what aggressive teenage driving does to truly innocent victims each day: http://news.google.com/news?num=100&...g+crash+killed C.T. http://www.geocities.com/aggressive_driving/ |

The cause of the death was not "speeding", it was yet another irrational person using and abusing their right to own a gun in the US. Go ahead and say that, as long as you realize that speeding teens kill a LOT more people than one enraged father in a freak incident. People don't equate speeding so readily with murder because the deaths usually aren't intentional. But if that man went temporarily nuts and shot at the kids mainly to scare them, there's not a huge difference between him and road terrorists who tailgate like maniacs and intimidate other drivers. They are just controlling much heavier projectiles than bullets. http://news.google.com/news?num=100&...g+crash+killed Most dry news stories about shooting incidents omit the full history of the victims. A big percentage of them were rotten people long before the one fateful day. We would applaud their deaths in a movie scene, but of course this is a nation of laws.
