A man’s home is his castle, or so the saying goes. And people should be able to protect their homes - including our most precious asset, our families - against intruders without fear of a lawsuit.

Does that sound convoluted? It is. And, it’s ridiculous. If someone is invading your home, the last thing you should be thinking about is being sued if you use force to defend yourself or your family.

The “Raiders” moving to Las Vegas seems so appropriate.
Maybe the homeowners can still defend themselves by using fresh fruit.
Yes. They can sue for loss of future earnings from home invasion robberies.
