      You can. You can use ANY weapon provided you do so in self-defence and use reasonable force. If that weapon happens to be an unlicenced firearm you can still use it in lawful self-defence, although you will almost certainly be charged with firearms offences afterwards. Possession of an illegally held firearm does not automatically make you guilty of murder or any of the Section 18 or 20 offences - that is a complete myth.

      The incident in which this black man entered a family home, along with others, notwithstanding this moronic individual considers it a ‘prank’ my view is he has lost any rights to a defence against injury.
      The victim in this case is a family man who is with his wife and children. If I were in that position under those circumstances, my instant reaction would be to use explosive and violent defensive aggression against the invaders. It’s is a fact that a significant number of the black community in London have no regard for the Law or other socially acceptable behaviour.
      The same is true of other communities within our society who have been encouraged by the so called academic elite that it’s their right to take a nonconformist attitude, it’s their Human Right to be objectionable! These individuals, as soon as they are challenged and meet opposition to their behaviour, cry wolf! Resulting in a line of solicitors and barristers willing to come forward to defend them!
      It’s time the Law abiding majority woke up and stood against these individual. The Law has proved impotent. It is seen to protect those intent on causing alarm and distress to the majority.

By the time I was in my late twenties, I was a parent, and a lover of, and contributor to, my community; Arrests, subsequent severe court imposed punishments, the efforts of prison staff and the probation service, led me to understand right from wrong and to appreciate the long term impact my actions had on others. This seldom happens today, because the sentences imposed by the courts are laughably lenient and have zero deterrent value. This kid has just received a slap on the wrist for a home invasion. If he and his mates do it again, and they scare somebody to death or they themselves are killed or harmed during, it will be because the courts were too scared to give him 6 months in the nick for what was obviously legally burglary. It also sets a worrying precedent, as in, "Nah, officer, we weren't going to Rob or harm anyone, we was making a tiktok vid init".

      Canada is much worse than Britain. Everyone here knows you have a 99% chance of being criminally charged. Our Crown prosecutors ALWAYS 2nd, 3rd, 4th and more guess what you should have done. What the Crown here has said is basically you have the right to tell the intruder to sit quietly, and wait for the police. That sounds like a winning formula, doesn't it? And if you wrestle the intruder's gun from him and shoot him and he dies, you WILL be charged with 1st degree murder. Canadians (if possible) are resorting to disposing of their dead bodies by burying them somewhere. When one's own government abandons decent, law abiding citizens we have to realize "we're on our own." Do what we have to do to survive, screw the government.

      Tony Martin was actually 54 and a working farmer at the time of the incident, so he wasn`t frail or elderly.
      The reason he was originally convicted of murder was because he had been in the pub in the days leading up to the incident telling anyone who cared to listen that he was going to kill the next person who broke into his home and it came to light that five years earlier that he had been stripped of his firearms licence for shooting at someone he claimed had been stealing his apples. This enabled the prosecution to establish a degree of premeditation and a pattern of behaviour for using excessive force. It was also established that the fatal shot occurred after the burglar tried to flee through a window in an adjacent room. In other words, Martin chased him there and shot him in the back. As there was no immediate threat to his own life at that moment, the jury deemed this to be unreasonable force within the directions issued by the judge and convicted him of murder.
      His conviction was later reduced on appeal to manslaughter by diminished responsibility because he had been diagnosed with paranoid personality disorder and Asperger`s syndrome while in prison. The public outcry didn`t even come into it as the submission of self defence made by Martin`s counsel was rejected by the appeal court panel. His sentence was reduced on the basis of degree of responsibility alone.
      I would also add that Martin had his first parole application rejected as he was deemed to be a danger to the public and that decision was upheld in the High Court. He was released after three years because that was the maximum amount of time he could be held for with remission for good behaviour.
      Btw, I was living in the area at the time and wasn`t all that surprised when this occurred. My grandmother knew Martin fairly well and often said he was a bit of a nutter.

      I have to disagree with you there. Firstly you will never be sure who is aware of what. And if the criminal attacker gets seriously injured, they will probably go to the hospital -who will almost certainly report it. The authorities were not there and did not see what happened, and if the first story they hear is from the criminal, they may question why the victim did not report the crime (they might not even be able to tell who is the real victim if the mugger claims he was the one being mugged for example). A lot of them are not deep thinkers or philosophers, and just following basic training. My best advice is use reasonable force following the law and report everything. This may not seem fair(as the system is not perfect) but you can't beat the system these days, just try and work with it as best you can.

    I know a lad by the name of "Scouse" (no prizes for guessing where he's from) and his girlfriend was telling us at a BBQ how there was a woman in Liverpool who was going around shouting for help through letter boxes so when people opened up to help, men would burst in and tie them up and rob them ect. Scouse at the time was about 16st and looks like Tom Hardy in Bronson but with more tattoos and a beard. He had a plan to deal with these intruders but that never happened but what did happen (allegedly) is two people tried to steal his car, so he (allegedly) got his girlfriend to cover him in baby lotion (an idea he stole from the film Bronson ironically) put on a pair of battered old army boots and climbed out of the bedroom room window and onto the canopy above the door and then jumped down and started attacking the two men.
    Moral of the story is, people might be prepared for a fight but they're certainly not prepared for a 16st naked scouser to fall from the sky and start chasing them. Honestly the best way to deal with intruders is to just charge at them naked because not many people want to get bummed.

    The main problem that the ivory tower legal intellectuals fail to understand is these laws have a chilling effect on your willingness to defend yourself. They introduce hesitancy in a scenario where hesitancy could be death, not just for you but your family. We keep having arguments about what we would do in retrospect which is wholly faulty and damaging. The fact I need to run a legal library including all definitions and interpretations through my head in a split second is all it takes to destroy the whole concept of the right of self defence. The process of going to court is the punishment / deterrence to defending yourself. One bad day, one bad jury or increasingly judge equals the end of your life as you know it for the crime of not being an SAS specialist in violence escalation. Not to mention the cost in money, emotional distress and reputational damage you could suffer in the meantime.

    First, I do mot know all the details of this, but If I can tell this little story: A friend I once sparred with was threatened once night. A thug pulled a knife behind him, luckily his wife saw what was happening, screams. My friend defended himself with a reverse kick to the jaw, putting him down.
    The law on the other hand tried to threaten him with jail time saying 'such a powerful kick was more force that necessary'(over a knife to the spine, I might add) - Karate experts of our school all over the country were called in to analyse his reaction, it was caught on cctv - All said the same, this is what we train for.
    Long story short, it dragged on for a while, weighed heavily on his mind, his familys, he even questioned why he holds a black belt. All we could do was support him, saying this could have been far worse if you didnt react. He was acquitted in the end. The guy who threatened him was seaking 'justice.' 'nuf said.
    So, you can defend yourself, to a degree decided upon by court.

    Doing a half hearted job of defending yourself due to the fear you will be punished puts you in more danger again. Even if the person is arrested it doesn't always end there with the potential for vengeance or intimidation from the culprits or their friends and family. This is especially likely within certain communities such as those that were regularly burgling Tony Martin and those that forced their way in to the home of Richard Osborn-Brooks. In both cases the victim would have been better off killing both intruders and disposing of them given what they went through and still go through following the incidents.

    In my view, if someone breaks into my house I would immediately feel threatened because I wouldn't know their intentions. People have been murdered after a break in, so just hurting them allowing them to respond would not be sufficient to keep me safe, so I would have to make sure they wouldn't be able to harm me the first time. So extreme force initially would be my first option. It's always easy when a jury sits and decides after a few hours or more whether you used the correct amount of force or not, but you have to make a split second decision - possibly to save your life.
