People commenting that the police don't do anything.....or don't care.... I wish you could come and spend a day or night doing the job and see the scale of what is going on, versus the number of officers on the ground. Might be an eye opener.
Go and do some reading on cases where the police have prosecuted people defending/protecting their property as well, prosecutions are only brought about when the use of force is clearly grossly disproportionate or excessive. There's enough genuine bad guys out there to be nicked without cops looking to nail people for defending what's rightfully theirs. Tabloid hysteria helps nobody here.
