What you describe here is already pretty much in the books.
TCA 39-11-611
(c) Any person using force intended or likely to cause death or serious bodily injury within a residence, business, dwelling or vehicle is presumed to have held a reasonable belief of imminent death or serious bodily injury to self, family, a member of the household or a person visiting as an invited guest, when that force is used against another person, who unlawfully and forcibly enters or has unlawfully and forcibly entered the residence, business, dwelling or vehicle, and the person using defensive force knew or had reason to believe that an unlawful and forcible entry occurred.
Basically this affords a huge amount of leeway (presumed to have held a reasonable belief) in use of lethal force against anyone that forces their way into you home.
Nice. Will be a shame when it falls off your boat at the lake.Bought this today.
I’ll be shooting intruders old school View attachment 324545
If your life isn't in danger and you shoot someone you are committing murder.
Its sad some people salivate at the chance to kill someone for a couple of dollars to play tough guy.
Definitely not anyone claiming to be a Christian can support this.
A head for an eyeNew TN bill was just proposed that will allow a person to shoot a criminal on their property who are stealing from them whether or not their lives are in danger.
Currently, your life or someone else's life must be in danger to use deadly force.
With this new bill you life does not need to be in danger. You simply need to feel deadly force is required to keep your property safe.
Not gonna lie.....I like it.
You step on my property with intent to steal then you get what you get. Just walk out the house, pull the trigger, and then call the morgue to come get the body.
How's everybody else feel about this bill?
The downside could be a shop keeper could just shoot a customer thinking he was stealing. Bill needs tightened up a bit.
I'm not so sure.And that line always makes me laugh. No one tough has ever said it in real life or wrote it.
