Bill sets self-defense rule

GGReporter · 04-18-2008, 09:32 AM

If a man's home is his castle, then that man has every right to shoot an intruder who would dare to break in.
That's the gist of Senate Bill 184, the so-called Castle Doctrine. It presumes that a resident acted in self-defense if he or she used force against someone who unlawfully enters the person's home or occupied vehicle. Pushed by the National Rifle Association, the bill passed the Senate unanimously yesterday and now moves to the House.

Now if only we could get this at a federal level...

Thanks Zephri, that one worked.

ghost raven, it would be nice but it will never happen with the Senate and House members we now have. If they get voted out then there would be a chance.

We have had that law in Ok for some time now and also they pass a law a while back that a man does not have to retreat in the face of danger and has the right to defend himself. If more states would take the same approach then mabe the light would go on in the senate and house of the usa. mabe not. Just my opinion.
