Is THAT why there's all those grenade attacks?

>if there's anything at all pointing to a perpetrator being a minor, he legally is, even if it's just a family tree someone drew up

I don't follow, what does it mean?

No that was just someone advertising
So, there was this case with a 19 year old guy from syria raping some younger girl. The migration board said he was 19, but his family made a family tree saying his date of birth was January 9 2000. Since the court couldn't prove it wasn't, it was accepted as evidence.

please explain

Good, your grandparents did enough damage to my country for many years to come

Australia is one of the only remaining countries in the world with enforced compulsory voting, even if it's just a small fine

you cannot blaze it unless you wanna get blazed in

Arasil also have compulsory voting

I think that is a bit better than being mandatory instead

English Filipina, do you understand? Cause I sure as hell don't

>my grandparents
>not the British empire
I guess you also prefer being dominated by China...

Can't you just cast an invalid vote?

At least Brits don't force us to use Tokyo time and bow to every soldier you see on the street

>australia
>it is illegal to use greater force than the attacker
in a home invasion, you literally just have to lock your door and call the cops. nothing you can do unless he attacks you first and then you can only match his force. just gotta hope he doesn't molest your kids or steal your TV and go back to sleep desu..

Good boy, show him who's your true boss.

At least you get to retaliate, we have to scare the perpetrator away which is highly unlikely

Here it's 'reasonable force' or something, they actually made it more sensible a few years ago.

I think it's like if a burglar attacks you you can attack back but if you start kicking his head in once he's on the floor you'll get in trouble.

I suppose it's strange that prostitution isn't illegal, yet most people don't know it isn't.

Fuck off, Ahmed bin Abdul. You ran away and let us get invaded by Japs riding bicycles from the north instead of coming by sea like your idiot PM Churchill said.

>stores can't share images of suspected shoplifters
>apartment leases legally have no value and selling them is illegal

These make sense though

>stores can't share images of suspected shoplifters
>makes sense
In what world? You're letting someone get away with petty theft

Oh shit we have the same shit here, i'm not 100% sure on how it works but basically you can get charged for an exaggeration of emergency response if you use too effective of a weapon.

This one case for example, a robber came into a house and sprayed the owner with pepper spray after which the owner stabbed the robber and the owner got a bigger sentence than robber and had to pay thousands of euros to the robber for pain and scars.

The key word there is "suspected".

>suspected
>I'll put you on a shitlist with your face based on accusation alone
>list can be leaked or shared between stores
>this means the local clerk can fuck your life up for not liking your face

some of these are cool

have you ever tried it?

If the police thinks that releasing the images might aid substantially towards the resolution of the case then THEY will release them.

Remember "innocent until proven guilty"? If the case turns out to have been bullshit or there is some other exonerating circumstance that means the case doesn't lead to a conviction then releasing those images will basically have been a smear-job.

deadly force vs non deadly force
nothing absurd or strange about it.

All shops and businesses have to be closed on sundays because JESUS

He just made that up, sorry. You can cancel your flight ticket to Tokyo now.

All shops and buisnesses (and public services) have to be closed on Saturday because of HAREDI VOTES

raped by japan but majority of your countrymen worship them

anime

Yes it is totally absurd since there is no way for you to know if the assailant is planning to use deadly force or not. When your life is possibly in danger it makes absolutely no sense to hold back at all.

Nope, labor unions are the only reason why sundays are free days for everyone anymore. if tradition and national culture were the only reasons to keep sundays free they would have been crushed by corporations long ago.

If ifs and buts were caramel and nut...

Pot calling the kettle black, Singapura

???

Well shit, I've gone full retard this time

whataboutism is not a valid legal argument. the facts are clear and simple, deadly force vs non-deadly force. same reason you can't claim self-defense if someone comes at you fists waving and you shoot him.

its deadly force vs. an unknown force you retarded cuck
what makes you think you have any idea of when and if an assailant will give up?

There was a point in time where we weren't allowed to wear yellow.

Using whataboutism is a perfectly valid argument for reasoning one's behavior in a self defense situation, if my house gets broken into and someone comes charging at me i will not give a fuck if he only has his fists or if he has a knife i will use everything in my power to stop the threat to my life.

It is in america, stand your ground laws.
Yanks work on the presumption that if you feel in danger you have the right to go nuclear.
And they are right, the kind of force is irrelevant, what matters is if you are in danger.
The moment the other guy is not a danger to you - you shouldn't be allowed to shoot or hit him (no shooting in the back, no kicking when he's down), but until then any defence is justifiable.
Any other position is bullshit, I ain't taking punches when I have a gun.

That was like just for a day and it's pretty easy to tell who was rioting

If you don't have reason to believe that you're in actual, mortal peril (Which you don't if the other guy doesn't have a lethal weapon) then there is no reason to allow you to use lethal force against him.

Human life > Your stuff

...

Almost everyone has legs and hands. What if the assailant happens to be good at kickboxing? Soon you'll be on the ground and he will have all the power to choose if you will live or not. If i'm getting attacked i'm not taking any chances.

It's legal to own Kinder eggs

t. rest of the world

[spoiler]Except America[/spoiler]

Shit, spoilers don't work here

>make worlds smallest gun
>rob malaysian child molesters
>???
>profit?

I disagree.
Any danger to my health and safety could escalate. We're not talking about my stuff here, an invader could try to force me to reveal where my 'riches' are. An old couple were tortured in this manner when they got robbed.
An invader is a danger and he could use my weapon against me if I don't use it against him. Remember these people aren't rational actors in a calm situations.
If I was ever in a situation like that I'd prefer that the robber runs, but if he attacks any system that tells me I have to go easy on him can suck my dick, this isn't a fucking duel, it's an unlawful attack on my person.
Damn right I'll put my safety above his.

Do you know that there are some places in Africa where they still solve tribal conflicts by fighting with spears and shields?

They've realized that if one tribe started using guns to get the advantage then it wouldn't take long before the other tribe had guns too and the number of deaths resulting from their conflicts would rise massively.

I'll give you a minute to see if you can tell how this relates to what we were talking about.

Yeah, to take a human life you only need a few minutes and hands around the persons throat. Even less if you happen to have literally any kind of knife, just slit the throat and there is no way they will survive.

>tribe conflicts in Africa somehow relate to self defense situations
I think i'll need a bit more than a minute.

Let me put it this way.

The number of armed home invasions that happen in Scandinavia is very low, as are the actual number of fatalities and injuries resulting from home invasions in general.

If the robbers knew they might run into someone with a gun, do you think it would stay that way?

Do you think that allowing escalation of force in self-defense might possibly lead to the criminals escalating the force THEY bring to bear?

>because Isis is against everyone except those who belong to Isis
high quality banter

Reminds me of the Turkish guy who called Germans a Köterrasse (dog breed, kind of). The public prosecutors did not sue him for incitement of a people, because Germans are the majority, hence no part of the population and could thus not be legally insulted.

We have that here too but I'm not sure if it's actually enforced.

>because Germans are the majority
>hence no part of the population
?????
Gosh I hate this country and its absurd ideas

>I ain't taking punches when I have a gun.
Then get ready to be charged for murder.

First off, if someone invades a home while someone is home he isn't trying to rob the house anymore, he is looking to hurt someone. Therefore as long as the armament gets the job done it doesn't matter if it is a gun or a knife.

Secondly the possibility that you might get shot trying to invade a home might very well decrease the number of home invasions because who the fuck wants to get shot.

>caring about the law when your or your loved ones life is in danger

Western Australia still has laws regarding duels

Death squads targeting drug users.

Also in England, Australia, New Zealand and maybe Canada and America (not sure on if those two have altered the law) a minor is legally allowed to take anything that's considered a necessary without paying for it.

yeah, I work at the election each year and you always get a bunch of votes that are just covered in drawings of dicks

An allusion to Tony Abbott?

curbstomps are an existing, unarmed lethal danger

also
>throwing an object at a police officer is subject to a specific assault offence that carries a higher penalty than it normally would
>because the section is worded so poorly, the offence doesn't apply if you actually hit the officer and you get charged with normal aggravated assault

So is a meteor falling from the sky on top of your head.

>getting beaten to death is just as probable as getting dinosaur'd

Jup:
>„Bei allen Personen mit deutscher Staatsbürgerschaft handelt es sich um die Bevölkerungsmehrheit und daher nicht um einen Teil der Bevölkerung“. Weil es sich also nicht „um einen verhältnismäßig kleinen, hinsichtlich der Individualität seiner Mitglieder fassbaren Kreis von Menschen handelt“, könne das Kollektiv der Deutschen nicht beleidigt werden, heißt es in den Ausführungen der Staatsanwaltschaft, die der „Welt“ vorliegen. Somit bleibt die Aussage straffrei und ist weiter erlaubt.

Can you defend yourself with a gun against a baseball bat?

>>illegal to use fireworks on days other than December 31st and January 1st unless you have municipal approval
>>you need to put a label with your name and address on drones heavier than half a kilo starting this summer

These are both fine.

Actually the drone one seems fairly elegant, put less restrictions on how and where you can use drones but require them to be identifiable.

If it's like every other law like this it has nothing to do with how physically "big" the weapon is but about how lethal it is.

So if someone is coming at them with a stick you can also hit them with a stick but you can't shoot them.

Oh there are already restrictions on where and how you can use them. And a drone flying license is probably going to be the next thing for them to think up. Wouldn't be Germany if it weren't completely overregulated.

>you cannot blaze it unless you wanna get blazed in
Does this stop stoneheads from talking about pot all the time?

The fireworks one is more than reasonable.
That shit screws with most animals to a ridiculous degree, farmers need to be ready for it when shit hits the fan because livestock can easily tear enclosures down when they get really panicked.
If people did that shit randomly all year around I would fucking kill myself.

In my case this is a good thing, because there is guy in the city I live in who as stole a couple times from the groccery store I useually shop at. It's get weird at times, people who know him see me ever now and then, the similarity is quite extreme appearently.

I also wonder what on Earth this guy is like in general, because everytime I'm doing something normal and it seems to freak these people out additionally. Once when I was waiting to get picked up by a friend, someone drow past me, the passenger stuck his head out and stared in awe all the way to the cross section. I was literally just standing there in normal clothes.

>40 years for possession of pot in excess of a certain amount (a few grams) is a strict liability crime that gets you 40 years
>marijuana is classified as a dangerous drug by the Comprehensive Dangerous Drug Act
kek

That's the European criminal jurisprudence for ya. It's not the size of the weapon. Generally you are allowed to use force that's roughly equal to that of your attacked.
It's bullshit, the Americans got it right.

>human life > your stuff

Not if it's the life of some subhuman criminal trying to take my stuff.

Life of a robber < shit

>It is illegal to make or watch porn in Korea

Up until the 1970's it was legal to kill Turks here.
The only unreasonable thing about it is that it's not legal anymore

There is literally nothing unethical about killing someone who threatens your property.
