Does Self Defense Violate the Rights of the Attacker?

A Drip of Sanity Brings a Flood Official Insanity. Ireland voted to allow homeowners the right of self defense against intruders. But the ‘official nannies’ are aghast: “The Irish Council for Civil Liberties, however, is highly critical of the change in the law but Justice Minister Alax Shatter has denied it is a ‘license to kill’.”

Council director Mark Kelly has labeled the new law “lax” on home defense and is highly critical of the legislation.

Kelly said: “These are lax proposals, which contain insufficiently robust legal safeguards to protect the right to life of householders or intruders.“

Yes! Intruders are people too! We must protect the sanctity of all human life!

“The law encourages people to use lethal force to defend their property and is at odds with Article 2 (right to life) of the European Convention on Human Rights which obliges the state to ensure that lethal force can only be used if absolutely necessary and strictly proportionate in all the circumstances.”

Must the ‘nannies’ of the world leave normal people at the mercy of world thuggery!
