# This too
I've got no desire to kill or badly hurt anyone, in my house illegally or not, but if someone is in my house illegally chances are I'm going to need to hurt them to persuade them to leave, and I should have the right to do so. And sadly people aren't hard to kill by accident - if they die it should be legally their fault not mine.

Anyone who feels differently must simply be luckier than me. I know for a fact that if I had to confront an intruder in my house and repel them with violence, the fucker would die. I'm just that unlucky in those sorts of situations.

prooving it in court is another matter entirely.

i myself favour a handy set of global knives on a magnetic holder in my kitchen along with a razor sharp katana next to my desk.

i would think that blunt force trauma from a cast iron skillet pan would be more easy to defend against in court as 'it was the first thing that come to hand when i confrounted them'.

also, WOO! that is a splendid pic.

# utterly brilliant, HT!
I'm guessing, however, at somepoint in the future, someone is going to try and get away with a murder using this, or at least, someone is going to be accused that it was murder, rather than defence. One of those vocal groups of people who love a crusade will start a campaign to get the law repealed and some newspaper/media group will start blowing it all up out of proportion and we'll eventually lose the original ruling. We'll, by law, have to let someone burgle us, then fill out the apporpriate forms afterwards. /pessimist_blog

# I'm not sure that will be the case, Steve.
Since money is more important than people (yes - it is), it's in the insurance companies' interest for people to tackle people and it to go to court, where it will be a civil matter. If we let people burgle us and then fill out the forms, it will require huge amounts of compensation etc, and they won't be at all happy about that.
