Oh yeah? Then tell me why Scotland told its citizens to try to “talk” to home invaders into not harming them. You have a computer, right? Go do a search rather than ranting ....you have not read reports on how home invaders were the victim and the home owner arrested. I don’t make things up. You’ve got your head in the sand.
Perhaps you should post links to your assertions, instead of telling me to go look, after all you brought it up.
As to arrests, again, I and other UK freepers have explained this before. In the UK, in an incident where a burglar has been injured, its standard police procedure to arrest everyone on the scene, question them, then release the homeowner after questioning without charge of course.
YES, its backward, even stupid, but that’s the UK way. I understand that it confuses US freepers as it seems like homeowners are being arrested and charged, but that’s not the case.
I know more about the subject than you. I am British, a homeowner, I know the law, the police, the history of this issue and of British crime. And as I said, I was in Sept 2008 the victim of the crime we are discussing. I used self-defence to defend myself and my property (for which I got nothing but commended by police and court).
