Letter to Cairns Post from a reader
Your Queensland government took away your ancient right to self-defence without you ever voting for that, (Right to lawfully kill home invaders, 06/07).
It empowered criminals to get “street cred” by invading your home and stealing your valuables and your car by largely removing the consequences for crime.
It shows little interest in punishing those criminals who are caught, giving them a slap on the wrist if they’re below an arbitrary age.
It explicitly admits it doesn’t feel obligated to defend you from the criminals it empowered.
In effect, the government has abandoned you to the criminals it tacitly permits to run wild in our communities.
If we have a Castle Law, we won’t be “murdering” home invaders, we’ll merely be swiftly applying the justice the government is failing to deliver.
Home invaders will need to decide if they value our stuff and their chance at social media street cred above their own lives.
The two US examples cited of home defence going wrong are extreme outliers; there’s tens of thousands of cases per year where it’s used correctly.
There’s also tens of thousands of cases per year of innocent lives being saved from the worst criminals, including mass murderers, by lawfully armed citizens.
Anti-gun alarmists in Australia love to point to high gun deaths in the US, but when you remove the stats from Democrat-run gun-free cities the rate is lower than Australia’s.
As to the legal opinions that Australians can already use guns in home defence, I have to wonder what they’re smoking.
Maybe if you have several million lazy dollars to pay lawyers to defend you from the government you might get away with that, but if you’re a legal gun owner don’t even think about it.

“In effect, the government has abandoned you to the criminals it tacitly permits to run wild in our communities.”
Absolutely! But ask yourself … Why?
And if you don’t know, get out of your box and find out. It’s your arse that’s at stake.
Shooting home invaders is a public service as it helps to protect the more vulnerable among us and promotes a more ‘polite’ friendly society to live in.
LEGAL IS NOT LAWFUL.
LAWFUL IS CONSTITUTIONAL UNDER COMMON LAW…USES LAWS.
LEGAL IS UNLAWFUL ADMIRALTY JURISDICTION OF THE HIGH SEAS…USES (UNLAWFUL ON LANDMASSES) STATUTES.
In Florida (USA) this never would make the news. Instead we have new flowerbeds and mulch piles. Every man has a rifle and nearly every girl has at least a pistol. Every farmer has a digging machine, and we lend them out to civic-minded people on request. Home invaders initially are brazen, like a pack of dogs. But that is broken after the second or third one flops. HINT: let none escape. And warn your neighbors to develop a blind and deaf attitude.
