They ALWAYS get charged. They almost never get convicted. You have the right to self defense.
And apparently you also have the right to get harassed and dragged through the mud in a long and unfair criminal case, even if you get off in the end.
The trial is the punishment.
If someone intrudes are you just supposed to let them?
Well, it is a police matter right?
But the best case scenario is 5 min response, and you’re facing a meth addict with a gun. What the heck are you supposed to do, besides defend yourself and family with whatever is at hand? Lunacy.
When seconds count, the police are just minutes away.
No, it's fine. You can trust the state's monopoly on violence. No way that could ever be used against you.
In Canada it is illegal to not offer intruders beer in evenings or coffee in the mornings.
Wow, that is insane.
Lesson here is don't call anyone, as your families safety is not important.
Also, don't talk to the police under any circumstances, even if you think you are the victim. They are not your friends, and they can and will fuck you over. Call a lawyer and keep your mouth shut.
