Two clowns who were hopped up on drugs invaded a home. One of the thugs was armed with a set of brass knuckles and a spade. At home were the male and female and the man's sons. The goons threatened to rape the woman and kill the man and his sons. The man picked up a samurai sword and whacked off the ear of one of the goons.
The Crown Prosecutor charged the man. The jury acquitted him.
Of interest was one of the commenters, who noted that in France, the courts viewed being killed or wounded by homeowners as an occupational hazard for burglars. Which is as it should be.

And the poor cloven ear victim's name? Severs!
I've always felt that any time a burglar or mugger gets killed, it should be ruled as a suicide.
I can tell you, home invasions are on the rise here, and anyone entering my home better consider it an "occupational hazard" to be injured. I have a zero tolerance policy...and a shotgun loaded with magnums.
If it is true that France looks upon injury or death for home invaders as an occupational hazard, I may have to re-think my opinions about France.
Good post and link.
The Brits are in more trouble than Americans.
