Amazingly, this all happened in Britain and the cops did not arrest the gun owner.

This judge would be overturned in America.

“This judge would be overturned in America.”
Especially if the perps were black or non-white.

Good luck to anyone that wants to own a ‘legally held shotgun’ in the UK anywhere but in a isolated rural area.

Read the article...the Brits are way behind in understanding ‘Castle Rights’. They did arrest the home owners and held them for 40 hours.

If the perps were black or non-white, the homeowner would be Zimmermanned.

But the gun owners are racists who are denying these good “honor students” the things they should rightfully take. < /major sarc >

Yeah, they did. Held them for 40 hours.
But some of the Brit posters say that an arrest like that is akin to a trip to Disneyland or a nice dinner out.

Oh, and they took his wife, too, just to be sure.

**** “They did arrest the home owners and held them for 40 hours.” ****
What? The guy doesn’t have a shovel?
Sheeesh what a freaking amateur ... 40 hours of contemplation ... I will bet that there is a shovel on his shopping list now

Yeah, I think I’d trade a good hour or so of digging and upper body workout rather than 40 in custody.

"Mr and Mrs Ferrie were also arrested and questioned for more than 40 hours on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm. They were later released without charge"
To: RBK
Thanks for that.
I guess they WERE Zimmermanned.

If the poor Brit had loaded with #4s instead of lead dust and actually gone for the "shoot and shrug at the mess" they would be in the slam for the next 15 years.
IIRC, the bad guys went to the cops and complained after being shot. The Brits have gone completely coward. 100% sheep. It's what Democrats dream of.
