Which you have already admitted isn't even Maryland's statuatory language. However, even that thin disingenuous reed fails to stretch to accomodate your increasingly desperate reach.
Now you're outright lying. Better show evidence for this one.
Attempting to equate two police officers standing on your porch asking you to turn down your stereo as being "like" murder, rape, robbery, arson, or burglary; because they "broke your door" is an affront to reason. The jury would see you for exactly what you were.
Dude (or dudette), you need glasses. Actually read my posts, then comment on them. Comprehension doesn't seem to be your strong suit tonight. I said no such thing.

Are you now back to implying that it is Maryland's law?
The commited illegal breaking and entering, which would be considered under 'and the like'.

Don't bother wasting your time...yes, Maryland self-defense law follows what you posted. Self-Defense is a recognized, common law defense to charges involving battery all the way up to homocide. There are two types, imperfect and perfect. Yes, breaking into a dwelling, at night while armed is a felony in Maryland, and under normal circumstances a Maryland homeowner can repel such an entry with deadly force if they feel their life is in danger. This case is by no means ordinary for a number of obvious reasons.
Unfortunately, the Maryland Pattern Jury Instructions aren't online (I can't find them as of yet) or I already would have posted them...not that it would do any good for these imbeciles.
They'd just keep making illogical, emotion-based arguments like good little liberals.
