| Plinker | W9ZEB You are correct with respect to Indiana Castle Doctrine that civil liability is removed if the defense is justified. This also applies to use of deadly force when else authorized. As another note, the castle doctrine applies to your "curtlidge" or the area which is associated with your home (like the attached garage and probably even the shed out back). "[i]f the person reasonably believes that the force is necessary to prevent or terminate the other person's unlawful entry of or attack on the person's dwelling, curtilage, or occupied motor vehicle." 35-41-3-2(b)(2)

I talked with my girlfriend one night, and she told me that she would probably 'shoot them in the leg or something.' She also said some other things that I WTF'd at. This is when I informed her that you don't shoot to wound, you shoot to stop. | |

![]() ![]() | I shoot primarily for fun. That being said all of my practice and training has been focused on accuracy and always in the back of my mind I am seeing a human figure that needs to be stopped. After living alone in the middle of nowhere after I was widowed it dawned on me that there was no one else to depend on . My mindset became "if they don't belong here and they are a threat they are going to be shot". I would never shoot as a warning or to wound. If the situation is bad enough for me to be shooting the BG is dead. It didn't take me long to realize that although life is precious whatever needs to be done to protect the innocent is what I will do. If you can't look at it that way, you should not pick up the weapon, IMHO. Even now that I am remarried I don't expect anyone else to protect me. If there is a problem and hubby is home we will be shoulder to shoulder.

| Avatar pictured below may not be actual size ![]() | That moment of realization is startling. I've only ever had that once (the first time I solo'ed an aircraft), but it was profound and affected me deeply.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I also didn't realize what forum we were in. (I'm addicted to the new posts feature...) One thing I've always found interesting is the point brought up earlier in the threat about it being different with kids. I've talked with many women just learning to shoot (no always for self defense, most just for fun). When discussion turns to self defense, there is often some uncertainty if they could take the shot if it is just protecting themselves, even when talking with mothers. However, we I asked what happens when the BG goes after the kids, the response is almost 100% "Oh, he's gonna die."

But the forum is listed out to the right side of the post link. You just have to get yourself in the habit of noticing it. Quote:
