As a Swede this seems completely medeival to me and I have troubles understanding how anyone can support such a law.
But since it is the US we're talking about, I'm not surprised. The US just have 1 additional reason why I wouldn't even consider moving there.
- M8 11y agoIs Sweden one of those countries where harming a robber inside your own house can put you in jail?
- staticelf 11y agoYes :P At least if you are doing unnecessary damage to the person. For example, if you are just defending yourself, it is okay. If the robber was not armed and you shoot him/her down, you will be prosecuted for that.
- jboggan 11y agoThe US is extremely large and extremely varied. I used to deal with these sorts of existential threats every day, but by moving to a city with more than double the cost of living I was able to escape most of it. Some folks are luckier and are born in more peaceful societies, you should be thankful!
