Rachel Lucas has commentary, and when I checked this morning, some 102 comments from readers on this incendiary subject.Frankly, I think examples such as these from overseas are reasons why public opinion in the U.S. continues to gravitate more toward self defense, with Castle Doctrine legislation being passed in state after state, and greater pushes toward allowing professors and students to carry a personal sidearm on campus to defend their lives against violent criminals who exploit the "non-violence" policies of weenie university administrators.
As for the retired builder in Wiltshire who is the subject of the story, I feel for him. This is utter nonsense in the once great United Kingdom.
