All good stuff, I sometimes get involved with organising personal safety events for staff and the police chap always stresses that after defending yourself shall we say against a mugger etc - one of the first things you say to the police officer is 'I was scared and an fear of my life'.

The term reasonable is always going to be in debate but it tends to be when you try to defend yourself with a gun that you find yourself in trouble as it's not usually the first thing that should come legally to hand.

Criminals get too much protection. They operate knowing that they will likely get away with it, and if they do get caught it will be a slapped wrist, and as such know they can get away with it. Even with good policing and improving forensics etc, this does seem to be the case.

My comment about handing out some justice, theiving scum need to be taught a lesson. I think they deserve a good beating if they are going to attempt to rob things I have bought with my hard earned.

out of intrest, my barn is fairly isolated, if i were driving past and saw a car /van outside with someone in the barn nicking would i be in my rights to call the  :police:, and then creep up and slash their tyres so they cant get away, then back up the road and wait for the  :police:? also if i did decide to take a burglar on, and thumped him once could i be acussed of unreasnable force as im 6foot6 and 18stone if he was "ordinary sized"?

Hangover:
Just as a note of caution,theives are not allways known to go down with one punch,nor are they paticularily happy at being disturbed or caught in the act,it's ok saying what you would like to do to them but in the heat of the moment things don't go as you would expect.

I was scared and in fear of my life... I also remembered that I have some disused mine shafts on my land and am only a short walk form a cliff with currents that take things out to the Atlantic.
