>A homeowner in Finland has been sentenced to four years in jail and a hefty fine after fighting off three intruders who attempted to rob his house. The thieves, meanwhile, got lesser prison terms and are to be paid damages by their victim. In April, a 35-year-old man from Hyvinkää, a town just 50km north of the Finnish capital, Helsinki, heard a knock on the front door of his suburban house and rushed to open it. As soon as he unlocked it, three strangers rushed in and launched at him, toting baseball bats and a gun. The man retreated to the kitchen, where he found a knife and with it was able to overpower the intruders, two men and one woman.
>The court spent nearly four months examining the case to come up with the unexpected ruling.
>The homeowner has been convicted of “excessive self-defense and attempted manslaughter,” Helsinki news reports. He will serve an unconditional sentence for four years and two months, which he has to spend in prison. The man also has to pay damages to his attackers, with the fine totaling €21,000 (US$23,000). The newspaper does not provide information on the severity of injuries sustained by the home-invaders, however, it is known that they survived the event.
.. and Fins think they are less cucked then Bongs, post 15 year old news clips to back up their point while in reality Bongs have been able to literally murder a home intruder legally.

theres several court cases of someone kiling intruder and only getting fined for excessive self defence.

All I can say that there must be something not reported, ie. we don't know... That being said I know our ''''justice'''' system IS pretty shitty when it comes to defending yourself or property.

The same attitude that leads to gun ban's pushes for the castration of self defense laws.
You show complete deference to the state, going so far as to not even defending your own person, or they'll punish you for stepping out of line.

The laws are shit because they were written when Finland was pretty much a safe haven and such crime didn't exist.
Connor Hernandez
This tbqh. We don't really have any self-defense laws.
Maybe in a century or two we'll get around that.
John Morgan
probably also because you wouldn't just get killed if you step 1cm into someones territory.
same shit here. retarded laws.
Mason Garcia
This. If three people with baseball bats and a gun rush in you're not going to retreat to the kitchen, grab a knife and "overpower" them. Most likely they were there to make that 35 y/o pay his (drug) debts or something and he decided to start stabbing them. You don't usually attack armed people with a knife.
Angel Jenkins
Haha even Sweden is bringing the bantz. How will Finland ever recover from this?
Leo Russell

Henry Cox
I'm going to have to third this. It's extremely obvious there's more to this case. Not trying to justify the shitty verdict, but chances are it wasn't in proper self defence.
Owen Garcia
>The man retreated to the kitchen, where he found a knife And this is the part the burglars fucked up. They let a Finn to become in possession of a knife.

Just disbelief. A 4 year sentence for a situation like this is pretty much unheard of. Either it's some extremely delusional judge or there's stuff not being told. Either way, the case will almost certainly move up to the hovrätt where it'll be deliberated upon further.
Lincoln Fisher
our country is filled with idiotic nationalists who haven't done their research. These people still think we are the same country we used to be during winter war and that USSR still exists
Dylan Gutierrez
Oh but you're in the process of being red my friend :^)
Anthony Ross
That's our justice system alright. Not that this is exactly news, it's always been like this.
Defend yourself and you'll get fined. One of the reasons why people choose not to get involved, when there's a fight or a robbery going on. Go in and deck the robber and without a doubt you're the one that's going to pay for it.
But this guy has a point though. There's something about this that we're not being told. First of all the 4 year sentence for this is pretty damn extreme and second, this was clearly some kind of an organized thing. 3 guys with bats and a gun and this guy manages to just fight them off? I say bullshit, he was expecting this and there most likely were drugs, or some debts involved with this attack.

>he newspaper does not provide information on the severity of injuries sustained by the home-invaders, however, it is known that they survived the event.
So how exactly are we supposed to know whether his actions were "excessive"?
>intruders enter home, armed >fear tactics >defendant avoids injury >obvious that they never intended to kill him >he comes at them with the intention of killing >MYSTERIOUS INJURIES >maybe he cut their vaginas off
Chase Myers
Matti please you know what I meant. Don't be a cuckold. Russia is still ruled by a dictator.
Thomas Powell
Why wouldn't the justice department or the judge reveal the severity of his 'excessive' attack after the sentencing, then?
Michael Richardson
Because it was sexual in nature.
Brayden Sullivan
Cases like this always make me think, wouldn't it be better to kill the intruders on the spot, or let them bleed out before calling the cops/ambulance?
You'd just say that you were in shock, fainted, whatever, they cannot proove you otherwise.
Because they lived it was 3 statements versus 1, they could just aswell bullshit the court that they only wanted to borrow some sugar and he violently stabbed them without any provocation. If they would be already dead however, you could bullshit your way out way easier.
Sebastian Ross
If he killed the 3 of them and buried the bodies in his back garden, he would still be a free man.
Jace Perry
Anyone have the story on another website?
Hudson Gray
It's probably on some Finnish news sites but I don't know the language.
>1 case of excessive force in the form of attempted manslaughter >2 cases of attempted manslaughter >intruders got assault charges and (violation of the sanctity of one's home) whatever the fuck it would be translated >a woman amongst the intruders >similiar age would to me imply they knew eachother So the bunch break into his home to rough him up for whatever reason - the woman being involved would make me think she's made a false rape claim or some shit - then the man goes berserk and tries to kill them all. Sounds like bullshit to me.

Charles Myers
>one man with a kitchen knife >against three shitskins with guns and bats
That man already won; do what you must.
Exactly. When the law is unjust, it just prompts good citizens towards extremes of action. Like in China where if you help someone in trouble, they can sue you, rather than there being good samaritan laws. So now chinks just ignore little girls who got hit by a car and are bleeding out.
Great laws, yuurocucks! Meanwhile in Freedomland, if someone fucks with me I can shoot them and go on stage to be awarded a medal of honor by the mayor. Praise be to Trump and the NRA!
Austin Smith
Says the guy with a cross on his flag, hundreds of years steeped in Christian culture. That you or any of the Varg types can claim any sort of continuity with something that's been dead and buried for a thousand years is nearly on the level of schizophrenia.

So you're saying I could get paid $23k for breaking into some Finnish guy's house with a gun? That would easily cover travel costs.
