I feel that anyone who enters my home without my invitation has given up ALL RIGHTS and FREEDOMS - our judicial system has yet to take away the right for a person to take whatever measures necessary to stop an intruder. A sad commentary of the injustice in our society is the fact that legal and law enforcement people advise that citizens involved in a home shooting incident BE SURE TO KILL any intruder so that no lawsuits can be taken against the victim by the guilty! Otherwise, the robber is likely to sue you for injuries received while breaking into your own home! Carl Amport ihuxm!cwa " ........... The judicial system HAS taken away that RIGHT! There exists the legal doctrine of appropriate force...You make take any action to defend PEOPLE, but NOT PROPERTY. In order to insure no contest, you not only have to kill the bugger, but also put a deadly weapon in its hand! Rob Botwin ...houxn!rb
