Self Defense Or Murder? Homeowner Shoots Man In Garage

Concealed Carry Insurance
uscca.com/colionnoir
I have a zero-tolerance policy for anyone invading my home or anywhere around it.
So the thought of someone breaking into my home and making me feel unsafe in my own home enrages me.
So when I see stories like this, I have minimal sympathy for the intruder.
However, the lawyer in me knows that what I feel is a justified use of force isn't always what the law deems justified.
Unfortunately, this woman is experiencing firsthand the unpredictable world of the legal system regarding self-defense, and if you ask me, it's ridiculous.
As responsible gun owners, we already have everything stacked up against us.
A criminal get's to plan an attack against you, and what do we responsible gun owners get to choose? Almost nothing!
The only thing we can do is hope to see the attack soon enough to give us enough time to do something about it.
Considering all the disadvantages legal gun owners already have to deal with when it comes to protecting themselves, you'd think the government would do everything to help us equal the playing field, but no, because the government is against us too.
If the day ever comes and we have to use our gun to defend ourselves, at that moment when our life is on the line, and we only have a split second to make a decision, we could still end up going to jail because the legal system didn't think our actions were justified.
After all, it wasn't positively clear that the person who broke into our house or property in the middle of the night was dangerous enough to use deadly force.
The crazy thing is, even if you beat the criminal case, the family can still try to destroy you financially in civil court.
I'm not saying that we should be able to shoot anyone who shows up on our property at night.
I'm saying that deciding to use deadly force in a situation like this lady was faced with is already hard enough without our government making it ten times harder on legal gun owners.
If you use your gun in self-defense, you may have saved your life, but you now may lose your freedom.
If you saved your life and maintained your freedom, you may now become financially ruined.
If you saved your life, maintained your freedom and money, you still may have to deal with the emotional trauma of having to take a life.
All of it is messed up, but that's our reality, and it's also why I encourage people to get some form of membership with an organization like USCCA.

www.mrcolionnoir.com/go/uscca/
The beautiful thing about USCCA is that there is no LIMIT to the cost of defense that is covered, which means whether the attorney costs $50K or $5 Million, that amount is covered in a case of self-defense.
But let's say you have some other damages as a result of your self-defense like you lose your gun, damage to your home, having to clean up the scene; there is also annual liability insurance for up to 2 million dollars.
Also, you get $100,000 cost of bail expenses and up to $750 per day for actual loss of earnings.
But the reason I like USCCA is that the membership isn't just about Self-Defense Liability Insurance.
The membership also gives you access to education, resources, and actual self-defense training.
USCCA is easily the most comprehensive membership on the market. If you want to learn more click here:

I had the misfortune to have four drug addicts break into my apartment. The vast majority of people will never experience the palpable fear of being beaten at minimum or simply killed. I was fortunate to have escaped them, however, if I were armed at the time I'm sure I would have fired. If someone breaks into your home, you don't have the luxury of knowing whether or not they will harm you or your family. Anti-gun advocates need to experience such a fear, I bet most of them would change their minds about self protection.

[@jamessavent3636]

The person didn't break into the person's house. It was a detached garage and so the the intruder wasn't a direct threat. The homeowner chose to go and confront the intruder and shoot them. If the garage was attached to the house, I don't think the duty to retreat applies because you can't retreat from your house without running from your home and you could perceive the person to be a threat. The garage is separate from the house

[@MiniWolf666]

@@jamessavent3636 The issue of your statement is that you are assuming that your garage, attached or unattached, isn’t a part of your “home.” Your home is defined as “the place where one lives permanently, especially as a member of a family or household,” it doesn’t state what exactly a home is. Is it the house? The property? Here’s the question you need to ask, do you think of your garage as a part of your home?

@@jamessavent3636 you can have an extra room in a detached garage. Plus, if someone fires 4 warning shots and are still advancing toward a person and reaching for a waistband you need to be shot before you kill the homeowner.

What kind of person are you that you think it’s ok for people to go into other people’s property and attack them without consequence?

[@MiniWolf666]

@Corey Gonzo You must be mentally challenged, all I did was add questions to the current question. I didn’t state that the detached garage was part of the home, just that the definition of “home” is vague. It was to make people think further in regards to these definitions and how they affect law. What blows my mind though, is that people like you actually think that someone that is on someone’s property illegally won’t have any bad intentions. I think this needs to be a more normal occurrence. If thieves start to see that their lives are at risk for their bad decisions, then maybe this country might have less thieves. If a thief believes that an object is more important then their lives, then that’s their problem. Not mine. Grow up and stop acting like a child that isn’t getting your way.

I have listened to some self-defense attorneys talk about what they go through trials, and most of them say this: Warning shot(s) is a terrible idea.

Of course it is self defence if you fire a warning shot and they keep on coming! This is how you know that they are extremely dangerous!

[@zevo9314]

they're a terrible idea for a multitude of reasons. the biggest being you're responsible for every shot. a shot into an attacker might go through them or around them and hit someone else, and that's sometimes a risk you gotta take. but a shot where you purposely miss could still hit someone else and then you're still in danger. not to mention that gives an attacker time to react, and their reaction may be more aggressive. and if you have a low capacity gun, like a revolver or shotgun, thats one less round to defend yourself and you may need every single one. also if a warning shot were to stop the threat and it goes no further, the attacker can argue in court that pulling the trigger was the use of deadly force, and since that alone stopped the threat, the use of deadly force was an escalation. in which case you're looking at possible attempted murder charges. just all around a warning shot is the worst thing you could do in a self defense situation besides just not pull your gun because you're afraid of the legal consequences after

He had a gun hidden in his nightstand and was able to retrieve it and kill his attacker. He was still charged and the case dragged on for a year or more. When the charges were finally dropped, the Crown said: ”the occupant of the home had no means of escape. As a result, this makes the use of a firearm more reasonable.” So, not only the duty to retreat - but the duty to retreat until you CAN'T retreat anymore, regardless of the circumstances.

They'd rather let the criminals win by using them as their cannon fodder to weed out gun owners by breaking into gun owners homes.

YOU BROKE THE LAWS! YOU GO TO PRISON!" I HIGHLY doubt that God thinks it's o.k. for criminals to get away with breaking into others homes, so when the laws start protecting the criminals MORE than they protect the INNOCENT, it's time to IGNORE the libtoids unconstitutional laws and tell them to "KICK ROCKS!"

Also, people being represented by USCCA attorneys don't receive any special treatment under the law. If they make a bad decision, they'll have to pay the penalty. The biggest thing is that while you get access to training to help make decisions in these situations if, God forbid you need to, you have someone who knows the laws on your side.

@IphigeniaAtAulis: An intruder/trespasser on your property is NOT breaking the law in many Democrat controlled states. In those states you're obliged to wait until the intruder either physically injures or kills you before you're allowed to use lethal defense....which proves extremely difficult for a dead home/property owner.

[@Daniel-qy9mb]

Anyone who crosses onto your property? I feel like that's a bit too far. People don't need permission to walk onto your property. They need permission to stay. If I walk up to your garage and you shoot me from inside your probably going to jail. Cause all I was trying to do was sell you a box of chocolates. All i'm trying to say is a blanket rule like this isn't going to work in a complex world. If you ask someone to leave and they don't that's strike one. If they start walking toward you that's strike two. Ignoring a warning shot(or a verbal "Freeze!") that was never necessary is strike three and I'll definitely shoot them. But claiming we can shoot someone for walking on our property just isn't going to cover a wide variety reasonable of situations.

[@thespadestable]

​@@nerblebun - Trespassing is breaking the law, but what you can't do is use deadly force or even physical force to remove them from your property. Even in rural areas where working farm owners have the right to protect their equipment, crops, and livestock, just because someone has wondered onto your land, you can't just shoot them on the spot. You have to show that all other means were exhausted for their removal before you used deadly force. A homeowner is in the wrong if they go into their garage and shoots an intruder, because there is a wall and door that separates the garage from the home. Defend in place laws does not protect a gun owner if they go into their garage or barn, no different than it does not protect leaving the top floor of a home, down to the bottom floor, or even basement to check on a bump that was heard. You shoot the person, be prepared for a prosecutor to charge you with murder, manslaughter, or negligence.

Especially because retreating means you turn your back on the threat to you. That is the most dangerous thing you can do. Clearly the criminal had no qualms breaking the law to commit burglary so who knows if they would assault or kill you as well. Don't risk it.

“A law repugnant to the Constitution is void. An act of Congress repugnant to the Constitution cannot become a law. The Constitution supersedes all other laws and the individual’s rights shall be liberally enforced in favor of him, the clearly intended and expressly designated beneficiary.” -Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 137 (1803) "The right of a citizen to keep and bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the state government. It is one of the “High Powers” delegated directly to the citizen, and is excepted out of the general powers of government. A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it because it is above the law, and independent of lawmaking” Cockrum v State, 24Tex394 (1859). The FOLLOWING is a Decision from the USSC!!! “The very purpose of a Bill of Rights was to withdraw certain subjects from the vicissitudes of political controversy, to place them beyond the reach of majorities and officials, and to establish them as legal principles to be applied by the courts. One's right to life, liberty, and property, to free speech, a free press, freedom of worship and assembly, and other fundamental rights may not be submitted to vote; they depend on the outcome of no elections.” - US Supreme Court, West Virginia State Board of Education v.

The people that write laws like this have never had any kind of trouble in their life from childhood to death. None of the ugly stuff they write laws about will ever affect their life anyway. They are like generals, in the rear with the gear. Nothing they tell someone else to do will ever happen to them.

I think it's incredible that Colion has time to be the 2A champion and be an attorney

Sadly, here in Canadaland, I don't even get a choice to protect myself- because the government has deemed that I'm not smart enough or skilled enough to do this. I have to be dead before I can respond to an attack.

Any law that is unjust is to be resisted. Any law that prevents you from defending your property strips you of the right to property. Any law that seeks to strip you of your property is unjust. Therefor any law that makes it such that you can not defend your property is unjust and must be resisted. these are the values we must hold to maintain a fair, honest, and strong society.

"Duty to retreat" means they believe an intruder has more of a right to break into your home than you have to defend it,

[@spongeintheshoe]

Or at least that they have a right to not _die._

[@bryantstudentd3831]

​@@spongeintheshoe They forfeited that right by breaking into someone else's home.
