I think not. So the legislation is attempting to address a non-problem, thereby advocating violence instead of avoidance.

there have been quite a few cases where people have not only been arrested and charged, but are now in prison for defending their life. You don't see much of these stories though, because what self serving government is going to publicly say that the laws they enforce ended up with an innocent man in jail?
