What the bloody hell is excessive force when defending your property ? In Texas you get an award for killing a intruder in your property. Broken legs yeah right you can make casts easily. They should grateful he didn't use a scaffold pole or baseball bat wrapped with barb wire. Why should people have to tell insurance companies it only boosts up your premiums ?
When I was my dad spotted a intruder trying to take the VCR my dad beat the shit out of him with his fists and he ran out the door, nothing was heard off after that.
I hope the magistrate has sense and tell him to do it again if someone tries to steal from him.
