Dragonlich,

All of what you say is true....unfortunately.

First I consider it a crime that Britain has disarmed its citizens.

Second, I consider it a crime that people cannot defend their property, including their homes.

Third, I'm VERY glad I live in the US where a) I can own a gun and b) I live in a state where I CAN shoot you in the back if you have broken into my home, where you have no business other than committing a crime.

And like Sixate, I disagree with every single word 4thTimeLucky said. As for showing remorse, for what? Shooting a 16 year old criminal who has broken into your home? More shame to Britain for the fact that this kid and his friends KNEW that the odds were greatly in their favor for at most a scolding in a court of law and not getting shot at by the homeowner.
