      Yeah just sit there and take the beating and do nothing to defend yourself – our justice system.

      When you raise the moral standards of average citizens to the roof, everyone becomes criminals, even the victims. Meanwhile the real criminals thrive.

      I hate agreeing with The Sun on things. Self defense should be reversed in terms of the law. You need to have evidence that you acted in violation of the law to be charged. Not charged and then need to prove you didn’t over compensate.

      Sadly, cops like an easy charge, and an easier conviction. A big F off to the Crown Prosecutors who weigh the evidence the cops provide, and pursue charges in these matters.
      Discression, and common sense were once used by the police, based on community standards and cohesion.
      Now it’s just covering your own *ss!

      It is one of the laws that benefit criminals at the cost of victims. There are cases when this does make sense, but in majority of situations this hurts.

      Like with gun control: you can prohibit everything, but would people who plan to commit a crime care?

      Criminals have more rights than law abiding citizens in this country. Been that way for a long time because we keep voting for it for some reason.

      When I was a teenager, my father was being physically abusive to my mom, i called the cops..when they arrived and told them of events, they asked me why i didnt take responsibility and stop him myself, then LEFT.

      Oh, was I supposed to stop assault with assault, mr officer? Ffs. This bs makes no damn sense.

      I don’t care about the law in an instance where I am being assaulted. If someone is physically assaulting me, they will be met with an equal amount of force in return, or an increasingly amount in order to defend myself or my life.

      On top of that, if you break into my home and assault me or my family, I care even less about the ‚law‘. You will leave my home and be visiting an orthopedic surgeon the following day, regardless of the legal outcome for me.
