Anyway, its really obnoxious that the powers that be in any state think that you should actually allow someone to harm you so long as you live and dont have to kill the person. To be honest, if someone rushes you, you really dont know what their intentions are, and the only reason people do it and live is because the general population cant carry. I am perfectly fine with anyone who decides to try and accost another person losing their life, I see absolutely nothing wrong with it. Who wants to risk their life and take a guess as to what the persons real intention is trying to assault you? I'd rather have God/allah/budah/etc sort them out and know their true intention than to roll the dice and find out.
The law in NJ actually states that self defense must be escalated. Meaning, you can meet only force with force, and after a brief period of defending yourself if you have the opportunity to escape you must attempt to do so. I think its a shitty law...Philadelphia had 450+ murders for the year of 2006. The city also has a ban on CCW, not the state. Laws written like the ones above are why these criminals are so damn daring and feel they can get away with this shit and have no consequences. Its really even more sickening to me that these Prosecutors are going after law abiding tax paying citizens who defend their lives/home/property from intruders.
In my mind, if you ENTER MY HOME without my permission, I do not care whether you are armed or unarmed and whether you plan to kill me or just steal my TV, you have earned the right to die.
