Well clearly this is just showing that the education system in any country is failing.
More towards the poll, I'd talk to them first. There's a good bit of home robberies committed by people who are first timers or genuinely dont want someone to get hurt (usually cause they know that will mean more jail time). So I'd talk to them and see if that can sedate them. I'll be honest, if the person broke in, but calmly left and left everyone with me, i'd let them go. I'd get the locks changed, but I'd let them go.
However, if they cant be reasoned with, you subdue. NOT kill, NOT maim, NOT disable, SUBDUE. Then call the cops. It looks bad if you beat someone, even if it is in home defense. There's no reason that in your own house where you hold the advantage of home field, you shouldnt be able to subdue someone.
Yeah. Subdue. That sounds reasonable. I mean everyone in the world can easily subdue everyone else. The only reason for violence is of course the evils in peoples heart.
Well back here on earth some people don't have the option to subdue others, and if force into a confrontation have to do whatever it takes to defend themselves.
Eh, maybe it comes with training. But thats what you should do anyway, at least thats what the few police officers I've talked to have told me. They hate a bloody scene and arguing if the case had obessive force used in it. BUt like I said, there's no reason you cant subdue someone, rather then just beat them to a bloody unconscious pulp.
I'm a big guy, I do have some hand to hand combat training as well as experience as a rather out of hand youth to draw on if I need to. Not everyone is in the same boat. I know I wouldn't attempt half what I would have a decade ago.
Screw the police officer's whining about a little extra work. I am going to do what I have to in order to defend myself. This doesn't automatically mean I have some sick desire to hurt someone. More that I already understand that if it came down to it I will stop someone with deadly force in order to protect myself or another.
Trying to always subdue first would be noble if it wasn't going to get your average person killed or injured more often then not.
Edit: I feel I should point out something that slips many people. Defending yourself is never an aggressive action. In order to be force into defending yourself you have to be attacked first. In this situation trying to rush into the bathroom and subdue the person till the cops arrive would be attacking them. Not exactly defending on self. Not that I find anything wrong with it if the person is in your house. I am also not knocking your personal believe that you can end any confrontation only that you can't realistically expect every other person to do the same.
