Drawing a line with home intruders and self defence

Neither act carries the death penalty in Australia.

True,but sometimes accidents happen

Tell it to the corpse who breaks into my place.

Well they should. People protest arguing 'human rights', but these people are sub-human, so it's irrelevant.

I for one respect the shit out of the fact that Apex are at least hitting people in Toorak rather than doing it to their own communities. God forbid the rich experience a bit of day to day horrific violence that us outer suburban plebs have grown up with.

You actually respect Apex because they are robbing people in Toorak, you are an idiot.

That's not what I said.

Mustn't have schools out there on the farm.

Apex are robbing in Toorak? Time to go do a copycat and get me some high end gear.

No matter if I went to school on the farm, in the city, or in a desert, you would still be an idiot. Anyone who minimises the actions of Apex (just because they rob people in richer communities) is an idiot, and will always be an idiot.

Again. If you cant read an entire sentence and choose to get mad about the first part without considering the second part, then youve only got yourself to blame for looking silly.

"... This message brought to you by Aggravated Robbery Advocates of Australia."

You obviously own nothing worth stealing.

Nowhere did i advocate it.

Please dont kill me badass.

 

[VineyIsLORD]

I just value human life over possessions covered by insurance. I also value my own freedom. I also understand the concept of self preservation and risk.

Good luck with your plan to commit murder. Enjoy prison at best.

But you "respect the shit" out of Ape-X?

Stay off my property and you'll be right.

Lol you are stating you'd commit murder to protect yiur television. At best that means you are stupid.

No it means I wield the Easton with intent to neutralise the threat to life and property. Death is merely one possible consequence of the intruder's pre-meditated decision to enter my house illegally.

Ok so you are changing your opinion. Thats good.

Just keep in mind if its property that youre protecting and you kill someone, youre a murderer.

Any half-competent lawyer would get it downgraded to manslaughter, at the least.

I acknowledge that people can't be allowed to take the law into their own hands, but the law also can't be seen to empower thieves to rob brazenly.

 

[frenchfri12]

Lucky I'm no theft target. Average cars with 150 year old faded paint house, loaded with high price gear. No need for security.

Is there some middle ground between empowering thieves, and murdering?

 

[Ron The Bear]

Is there some middle ground between empowering thieves, and murdering?

Not even a question worth pondering. Nobody sits around waiting to be broken into so they can kill. However anyone who breaks into a house knowing the occupants are home is going to be pretty desperate.

FWIW I value my stuff above the life of any shitkicking potential thief. Sue me.

You would kill, for a beer?

What is wrong with you that you need to create strawmen?

Just don't break into my house. I'm not asking very much.

 

[CM86]

So you wouldn't kill for your possessions?
