    John is absolutely correct def agree. Heres the tipping point on protecting property: when it happens over and over and over and you get your insurance canceled then can’t qualify for new insurance or it doubles. Jake from Snake Farm has canceled me after car theft, home burglary 2x. Also perps now realize no ones going to do anything about it then the car become the garage and then the home. Also we live in fire zone so once there an evacuation the creepers come a snooping and there usually 3-5 of them at a time.

A vicious dog tried to mail my child and pets in our fenced in backyard. I went out with a 12 gauge loaded with less lethal rounds. The owner of the dog sent her 10 yr old little girl to retrieve him. No collar, no leach, NOTHING!! The mother then decided to lie about the whole innocent, with 10 witnesses less than 50 feet away and my wife, daughter, and myself also. Yet the DA is just allowing this to go on Lol I’ve demanded a jury trial after they offered me an obscene charge, the reporting parties statements contradict each other as well Lol there’s holes among holes through everything!!!

    It's also worth pointing out that curtilage in some states requires that area to be part of the normal daily use of the property which could change from season to season (the lawn mower shed might not be curtilage in the winter, for example). Once again, as Tim pointed out, "must I" is a much better question than "can I".

    Very interesting conversation. My wife had asked me about what to do if someone was on our deck at night. I agree risking your life for property is very questionable, but I think there's got to be more to it than letting them get away (maybe camera with speaker at least). And the police can endanger themselves investigating a disturbance on my property but I shouldn't? Need some more conversation on this.

    In Virginia you can't carry concealed on your property outside the curtilage of your home without a permit. If you own 3 acres you can't go out in the woods behind your house with a pistol in your appendix holster legally unless you have a permit. If you open carry on your property in Virginia, Gladys Kravitz next door might very likely call the cops on you eliciting a SWAT style response and perhaps a brandishing charge or reckless endangerment - or worse. I've seen it happen.

    You go to work every day. You pay your share of taxes. You obey the laws of your jurisdiction. Some of you serve your country and local communities. You pay your bills in a timely fashion.
    One day, or night, you find a group of people removing parts off of your vehicle and/or vehicles. You let them continue because the law favors them. You call 911, the cops arrive after the fact. You file a report. You make a claim with your insurer. You pay a substantial deductible. Your insurance rate goes up. Sometimes your insurer drops you because the area you reside in is eventually is deemed "high risk", and then you purchase insurance that is much more expensive.
    The criminals have since continued onto the next several hundred victims. The local law enforcement continue to do nothing. The insurance providers continue to raise every ones rates. And here we have lawyers and self defense "advocates" telling every one to just let them carry on, while you're still SOL.

HOWEVER, if one of my loved ones is outside, and something nasty is going down on my property, you can bet your last dollar I'm going outside armed to protect them. Not sure how that plays out legally, but what kind of husband/father/grandfather DOESN'T do whatever he needs to do to protect his family? Sadly, some POS attorney, who cares nothing about law and justice, and only cares about "winning a case," will take that case. Lawyers are a necessary evil nowadays. Too bad more of them don't have a conscience and only worship money and status. It never seems to be about law and justice. It's all about back room handshakes, plea bargains, and quid pro quo with their attorney buddies.

      I served in the military for 22 years through three wars/conflicts. I hope I NEVER have to use my personal firearms against another human being. However, I will protect my family. Any man who wouldn't is no man at all. I don't have a fetish about using it on other people either. People like that are psychopaths, and that is NOT the majority of people. Your broad brushstroking of the population is laughable and untenable.

    The law protects the criminals not the law abiding citizens

      I disagree for the most part. The laws keep the good, sane, sober, moral, prudent person from becoming a criminal.
