Nick Dametto MP I support and signed. Some thoughts on how the communication on the Castle Law as some people remains skeptical about it. Correct me if my understanding is not accurate: 1) Castle Law won’t make us Americans, 2) It’s a powerful deterrent rather than a license to kill, 3) Most of us don’t have legal firearms so it’s actually hard to kill a person than what’s shown in movies, 4) Most break in are by amateurs or teens, they are not going prepare for a bloodbath, 5) Professional thieves will achieve what they want regardless of the Castle Law or security systems if you are a high value target, 6) Most owners can make conscious decisions not to harm a child or elderly who accidentally trespasses, 7) Ultimately the Castle Law is to give owners full rights to defend instead of worrying about legal consequences and high legal bills as the term “reasonable” and “proportionality “ under the current law is subject to interpretation and any law suits have variables and uncertainties.
I signed as I believe that Castle Law is the best deterrent until our laws and judges are changed for the better.
Hey Nick can I pick-up a paper copy from the office so I can put it around to the ones that don't have computers or are not savvy with the phone.
