Question sledge/philw,...
Since the scenarios you presented are so restrictive in regards to firearms in the home....
If you beat a home invader to death with another item,....baseball bat, cricket bat, golf club, (congrats to Adam Scott winning the Masters BTW),...or stab them repeatedly with a kitchen knife. Whatever...
Does the "law" still uphold the right to self defense in one's home if attacked?
Or are you subject to criminal/civil litagation for not giving the bad guy more flexibility and appeasement so he'll take what he wants and go away...

Just curious.
We do have some protections. Well I know I do here in SA and NSW. I am not sure about sledge in tas ( however I know what he would do )
We have to be in fear of our lives and use what ever can at the time
However you still might need to prove it in court and go through all the bs
I think I need to take up cricket again though

Also my knife collection that I have is stored all over the house
We can use firearms however the big issue is that it would take me 3 mins to get out my 12g. And longer for the 9mm or 357mag and the ammo with how they are stored so they are out.
Unless I just happen to have them out to clean them.
