So, you guys really can't use firearms for self defense and protecting your property, eh? You can have them with certain restrictions, but they have to be maintained in an inoperable condition. Well, that sucks if and when you may need them.
I wish thieves here would get beat downs. Instead, the victims are blamed for not having locked their stuff well enough and the thieves are not even punished at all. It's ridiculous. Right now there's a big epidemic of bikes being stolen but also random stuff from people's cars, whether or not they are locked. They will go right in people's back yards and steal stuff too, sometimes even breaking into sheds. There is no risk because the police won't do anything other than tell the victims sucks to be you, so they know they can get away with it.
Which reminds me I should get an alarm sensor for my shed. I wanted a door that opens to the outside and kinda forgot about the security aspect of that. It's super easy to just undo the latch from outside with a credit card or something. Suppose I could change the lock for a deadbolt though. But even then they'll just cut a hole through a wall or something, they don't care, because the police don't care. If you catch them and try to stop them, then you're the one that gets in trouble for assault.

You might remember Governor Jerry Brown extending the life of Prop 47 last November. It doesn't expire until 2022. Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer says there's no doubt Prop 47 is playing a leading role in what he sees day in and day out.
"There's an individual we have arrested 83 times since Prop 47 has passed, all on petty thefts, 83 times," said Dyer.
That's one of the things I don't agree with here, we can't really defend ourselves as we don't have castle laws. It's not so much the lack of guns - I don't care about that part, I'd be more than happy if they simply allowed us to use any force available such as blunt trauma via melee weapon. But if you do, it's assault. I'd probably do it anyway though, deal with the consequences after. Idealy if you use reasonable force and can make it look like an accident, you MIGHT be able to get away with it. At least that's what one cop told me once. Essentially they don't really vouch for the thieves or anything, it's just that the current law system pretty much makes them have their hands tied. They just can't do anything.

idk, i don't really have anything against guns but i'd much rather just make an insurance claim than shoot someone

They charged the beatee with battery:
"Laura Meltzer, a spokeswoman for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, confirmed to The Post that Fontelar was issued a citation for misdemeanor battery and will need to appear in court at a later date."
They charged the McD employee with battery? What the fuck... If you instigate (throwing a milkshake and committing verbal assault), self defense should be completely accepted.
Sorry, but this is just fucking wrong. You see the stupid stripper/hooker get up and try to instigate again with the chair. One was CLEARLY defending, the other was CLEARLY offending.
Someone needs to start a Gofund me for - that's one I would chip in on. The world is fucked up.

I take it that reading comprehension is not your strongest attribute?
Customer Sabrinah Fontelar was issued a citation for misdemeanor battery and will need to appear in court at a later date."
McDonald's worker Erika Chavolla was not charged.
Chavolla said she wasn’t even planning on hitting Fontelar, who said on social media that she was charged with battery in connection with the fight.

Did you ever consider that maybe a beating would deter petty thievery better than get processed thru today's legal system with no real consequences?

that is a grey area in the law here. There have been 2 cases recently about the use of deadly force to protect property and lives. Both ended in acquittals and both caused joy and outrage.So, you guys really can't use firearms for self defense and protecting your property, eh?

He meant Canada as he is replying to Red Squirrel.Depends on the state.

I believe every SANE gun owner would enjoy living in a world where guns were never needed for self-defense. Hunting, target and sport shooting would be plenty for me if we lived in such a world.
Montana guy does the same. Filled up a water cup with soda.

Stine was arrested and booked with four misdemeanors including resisting arrest, criminal trespass and disorderly conduct. He was also charged with felony robbery for the incident and is being held on an additional $50,000 bond.
Looks like they charged him with felony robbery.
