-Caveat Lector- > On the other side of the coin, gun control has proved deadly, as is the case > in England where under the Firearms Act of 1997 all handguns and most rifles > were outlawed and confiscated. > In the dead of night in an isolated English farmhouse in south east england the lone farmer heard his house being broken into - nervously he got his shotgun and went to the top of the stairs to be confronted by 2 attackers - he fired his shotgun - and an attacker fell and a bigger attacker ran away. the fallen assailant was a young bow - who died, his accomplice was a housebreaker with a string of previous convictions. The farmer was tried and jailed for murder.
He was told that he used unreasonable force to defend himself. The farmer was of poor health. andrew hennessey > <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
