    No your state laws on self defense and defense of property. Get insurance that covers you.

    I never said I don't believe in lawyers. You misrepresent my position. What I've always contended is that their are far too many of you and that the majority prey on society. Which is undoubtedly true.

    But in many countries the loser pays. If you know that you are right then your bill is their bill.

    I wonder if they would say the same thing to the classes today in MA? LOL
    He wanted you to go to jail. That is what would have happened if you followed his advice.

    Many courts in the US have a way to have the loser pay in a civil trial. It is just rarely enforced by courts.

    I have never heard of that at a criminal trial anywhere.

    If you shoot and kill someone who broke into your home in NJ you will be charged with murder...the law says you must retreat and owning a handgun is illegal and there is no law for self defense...

    NJ is so hard now to get a permit to BUY a handgun that working police officers get tortured before they can buy an offduty weapon....Forget getting a carry permit

    Be sure to take your business elsewhere.
