I'm really hoping there's more to this story to explain this travesty of justice.
A fellow in Nova Scotia, Canada is at home when the home is invaded by three intruders who are armed with firearms.
In the struggle that breaks out, he gets ahold of one of their firearms and shoots at least one of them, causing them to flee.
One would think this is a happy result, yes? Well, the story isn't over......
He is then charged with attempted murder and unauthorized possession of a firearm and a raft of further firearms related charges including improper storage of a firearm.
No kidding.
Herald News: Break-in suspect shot, man in home charged
Police said that three men entered the residence with guns and a struggle took place with two men inside. The two in the home seized a firearm from one of the suspects and several shots were fired as the suspects fled. Police later located one of the suspects, who had non-life-threatening gunshot wounds. Munroe [the guy who beat back the home invaders] faces charges of attempted murder, intent to discharge a firearm, intent to discharge a firearm when being reckless, careless use of a firearm, improper storage of a firearm, pointing a firearm, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, unauthorized possession of a firearm, possession of a firearm knowing that possession is unauthorized, and possession for the purpose of trafficking.
I had no idea that Nova Scotia had turned into the United Kingdom when it came to self defense, and I expected better of the RCMP.

Ya know, maybe he would have been better served by remaining silent. I doubt that Canada has the right to avoid incriminating yourself out of your own mouth and I confess ignorance of their law. If he just called the cops and shrugged his shoulders when they arrived what would be the result?
Hey Aaron;
I don't know the full story but as I recall, Nova Scotia is pretty liberal. I think the crown prosecutor is using this case to make an example out of this case and make a name for himself. Remember Canada is run by Trudeau and his crowd.
