Castle Doctrine

[52449]

North Dakota is next.  The legislature is working on a bill now.  House bill 1319 affectionately call the shoot the burglar law.  I think the most important part of these laws is the protection of the victim from legal attack after a justifiable shooting. 
i can't believe the capital city news paper came out against the bill.  People seem to think it will be open season on burglars.  You have to find one first, this is North Dakota after all.

We were taling about the Castle Doctrine law in Business Law class today and its amazing how ignorant people are about the laws that the states have!  The majority (probably 80%) voiced their opinion (correctly, of course) that the way the law requires you to retreat now in TX (before the new law takes effect) is absurd...  More people need to get involved and stay informed with blogs such as this ... the NRAILA ... and just plain researching what your own legislature is doing.
