A 78-year-old pensioner in England has been arrested under suspicion of murder for stabbing a much younger man who, with a companion who apparently fled, broke into the pensioner's house to rob. One of the wannabe thieves was armed with a screwdriver...
Seems to me that the house should be considered sacred, that anyone breaking in deserves anything they get thrown back at them for their efforts. It's the one place where I believe guns shoud be allowed, and allowed to be used. No need for war weapons there; all close-range stuff and a pistol perfectly good and more easy to deploy that a rifle that could more easily be wrestled away from the user.
