Those who live by the sword, will be shot by those who don't

God I hope Perth never actually needs this law, "ever".

"**The law, passed in 2005, gives people the right to use deadly force as long as they reasonably believe" it is necessary to stop another person from hurting them.**"

Not this kook - there are some seriously strange people out there (and not forgetting in here as well )

I know I am "old school" however I know that if I mug, rob or attack someone or their property I have crossed the line and cop whatever punishment is dished out by my victim or the authorities. Having said that, 8 bullets is probably a bit extreme, especially the ones in the back, i am sure the first one would have slowed the attacker down a lot, sounds like adrenelin kicked in.

I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself.

i think the debate is ignited,

Good day for it too, after 2 kids get shot at school in the U.S, oh but it was only an accident.

That law is one of the stupid things i have heard. allowing people to shoot other at thier own discretion.... I wouldn't want to stop a that trigger happy jogger and ask him for the time. "but your honour i thought he was mugging me"
