AP thinks defending yourself from criminals is some sort of macho character flaw.

More and more of this type story is surfacing on a daily basis. Simply put, the people are tired of being the victims and are stareting to fight back. GOOD! When we got CCW here in Wisconsin, a new day began. Now that we have also obtained the Castle doctrine, things a really looking up. I would not want to be a thief anywhere around where I live.

In a free country no new law would be required.

Intruder = deadly force. End of story.

An in your face title for the bill. I believe we all have the right to protect or self's and our property. I feel if there are several employees in a business then the owner might want to invest in some training to prevent coworkers and customers from being victims of an accidental shooting while a poorly trained employee try to take out a bad guy.
