The Dumbest Law on Earth
December 16th 2009 18:54
Intruders enter your home and take you and your family hostage. You are all tied up and threatened. A career criminal with a knife and two others begin to burglarize your house. You escape and beat the criminal with a metal pole and a cricket bat. You're a hero and are treated as such as justice is served!
Not exactly...
A judge has sentenced victim to two and a half years in prison while the criminal goes free. In the reasoning of the judge, he believes the 'rule of law' would collapse if citizens were allowed to take the law into their own hands.
In the US if an intruder enters your home you are allowed to kill him by any means. Barbaric as it may sound to the clueless judge, it works! This judge actually found a way to make the victim a criminal and the criminal a victim.

An acquaintance caught thieves breaking into his van and held them at gunpoint until cops arrived. He ended up getting arrested. Why? Because the van was in his driveway not in his house. If the van had been in a garage, his legal woes would depend if the garage was attached to the house or not.
Still, this incident did happen in the 'victim's home!
