Quote of the day

"If a person breaks into your home, you are justified in using deadly force in defending your family," said [Police spokesman, Sgt Matthew] Mount
Background:
Police responding to a call from the city's northwest side about 3:20 a.m. found 64-year-old Robert McNally on the hallway floor with his arm around the neck of 52-year-old David T. Meyers, who was pronounced dead at the scene... Police said Meyers was naked except for a mask and latex gloves and had entered the home through a window near the girl's bedroom with rope, condoms and a knife.
Meyers was a convicted sex offender.

I agree with the Police spokesman.

I knew even before clicking on the link that this was going to be a US news item. I just cannot imaging a UK policeman saying this...
