The rules as far as I am aware have changed a little since then.

 

Householders and the use of force against intruders

 

Reasonable force, now works in our favour not the criminals.

 

H-A

 

I'll bet you that the CPS definition of 'reasonable force' differs somewhat from the membership on here when theft of hard earned work tools is concerned.

 

That aside, any amount of force is useless when the scum or their mates will take revenge by burning your yard or your house and family to the ground. We all know who I'm talking about.

 

Hitler would have sorted this problem out by now. The people doing this are of no use to society, and have no morals whatsoever.

 

You think it's bad now, wait till the Roma start arriving. These people have a 100% alien mindset. They believe stealing is an honest days work. 'Prince of Thieves' is a title they aspire to. If the UN turned a blind eye, the Romanian people would wipe this scum out, and for good reason.

I like this extract,

 

"What if the intruder dies?

If you have acted in reasonable self-defence, as described above, and the intruder dies you will still have acted lawfully. Indeed, there are several such cases where the householder has not been prosecuted. However, if, for example:

 

having knocked someone unconscious, you then decided to further hurt or kill them to punish them; or

you knew of an intended intruder and set a trap to hurt or to kill them rather than involve the police,

you would be acting with very excessive and gratuitous force and could be prosecuted."

 

Let us hope the hype about Roma people is wrong, sadly I feel we will all need to increase security and keep vigilant next year.
