OR still has excellent gun laws. I attended a talk by the then county sheriff about 10 year ago detailing when it is legal to shoot trespassers on the property or house invaders and when it is not. If they won’t leave when told to, make verbal threats, have a visible weapon or claim they have a weapon, outnumber you, or are young and you are not - all legal shoots.
Can’t shoot if someone steals your car though. Someone was convicted for that some years ago.
This man did the right thing. The fact that Eugene authorities (a deep blue city) agrees says a lot about the situation.

It’s OR state law, Eugene authorities really had no choice. If they had prosecuted the shooter, they would have lost the case anyway.
I searched on DDG but couldn’t find one of these “reinforced steel Rape Gates”
Could you point me to a pic or a link?
Thx

I can’t find any pictures though.
Would it have been possible to have retreated into a bedroom and locked the door until police arrived?
A broom and a trashcan lid are what it would take to remove the varmint.
