Lethal force under all circumstances

Comment comment by Brandon on 26 February 2008

All circumstances? All of them? Meaning someone comes to your door to sell you cookies, you invite them in and kill them, and everything fine and dandy?

Castle Doctrine defines the defense of the home. I suppose you could be that crotchety old guy in a rocking chair wielding a shotgun at neighborhood kids if you wanted to. I believed it to be an unwanted intruder where all circumstances are defined as everything from intending to murder you to simply snooping around.

I agree with Brandon..."ALL" implies that you have full autonomy in your own home, that would defeat the purpose of a government in the first place...your home isn't an embassy.
