Shame in Australia the laws are pathetic. If somebody breaks into your house your not allowed to hit them or even TOUCH them, let alone shoot them with a f**king gun.
EDIT: Also, our house got broken into on Australia day when we were down at the coast. Called the cops as usual, and we had a long talk with them. When we asked what we are alowed to do if we catch a guy robbing something from our house, he said:
Or he is the one being sued by some stupid civi who decides to be John McLean."Just leave them alone mate, and just contact the police and insurance company instead.
