When is someone not justified in using deadly force to protect their property?

Law
2 answers:
Lunna [17]3 years ago

Example: You wake up in the middle of the night and hear rumbling in your living room. You grab a weapon (that could potentially hurt the person). The man/woman is trying to take your TV but drops it and tries to flee when being caught.

You have 2 options.
A) Let him flee.
B) Fire your weapon at him.

Remember: Deadly force is justified if a person unlawfully enters onto property and the property owner reasonably believes that the trespasser is about to commit a felony or do harm to a person on the premises. ... Use of deadly force is never justified to protect PERSONAL PROPERTY other than a dwelling.

Hopefully this example helped.

Why did the colonists criticize the stamp act as taxation
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Stamp Act was enacted to cause the colonists to pay the tax. This was represented by the stamp on various kinds of documents and papers.

This lead to the adverse colonial reaction to this Act caused the boycott of British goods. This was also associated with the riots and attack of colonists over the tax collectors.
