The leader of the official opposition party here in Canuckistan is currently attempting to introduce legislation that actually recognizes the "castle doctrine" idea. An amazing concept up here, in a land where we are indeed expected to jump out windows rather than confronting an intruder in our own homes.

Probably hasn't got a prayer of ever passing. Much more satisfying for our overlords to continue exerting the full weight of the law upon the victims of crime rather than the perpetrators.

Sorry to hear that John...that he hasn't a prayer I mean...as an Australian I fell your pain...Australian authorities just outlawed machetes and placed drop bins where they could be turned in....cause we know that the ppl that use them to break the law and slash up their victims are going to comply with their "wonderful" edict to turn them in right?? or face "heavy fines" SMH
I do live in the US now, and even though there's a lot of craziness here across your southern border, it is nice to be able to defend ones self against the perps....for now of course...
