The BIG difference between MA and TX; is the in MA you are expected to vacate your home if a robber intrudes. This runs counter to every fiber of my being. A felon enters my home, and by law I'm required to flee; to let the felon take/destroy my possessions!!

No longer! (Please, it's awful enough here without misinformation! :-) )

That was the law for a brief period years ago. Amazingly enough, the "Castle Law" was enacted during PeeWee Dukakis' reign!

If I recall correctly, Mass.Ch 131 General Laws, "Limitations on the Use of Deadly force":

"It shall be a defense that the shooter was in his own home..."

We agree!. Am I still correct that it is individuals -- not firearms that are licensed in MA?
