Jan 30, 2012 State Law Upgraded from Castle Doctrine
Last summer Pennsylvania upgraded its state law formerly known as the Castle Doctrine
to include a “stand your ground doctrine” The implications are that if you are facing attack with a deadly weapon and possess a permitted firearm, you are allowed to shoot under certain criteria without first trying to retreat whether you are in your home or not. Because of this a Reading man will not be charged for shooting two teenage hoodlums, one fatally (yes, I said hoodlums) when they threw him off his bike and attempted to rob him. When using a gun in self defense one must consider the potential for “collateral damage”, meaning shooting innocent bystanders. That’s a lot to think about while you’re trying to defend yourself! After the incident the defender must call “9-1-1” to report details and put the gun down near by- careful not to disturb the scene. I’m pretty sure you don’t want to be still holding the gun when the police arrive. Click here to read more about self defense laws Jan 24, 2012 Girl Saves Herself from Abductor
