Here in Australia, specifically the state of New South Wales, thanks to the Shooters Party, shooters have a representative in parliament who has > negotiated with Premier and Attorney-General to absorb Home Invasion and Workplace Bills into a wider amendment to the Crimes Act (Crimes Amendment (Self Defence) Act) which extends the absolute right of self-defence to citizens anywhere, not just in home or workplace. It guarantees a citizen immunity from civil and criminal liability, if they defend themselves against attack; and also provides that if they are charged after fending off an attack, the onus of proof is reversed and the prosecution must prove that they did not believe, in their own minds, that they had to take whatever action they did to defend themselves. This is now law." Amen.
