This is a very... US comment to make.

There have been cases in the US where homeowners shot cops dead who were in the process of unexpectedly raiding their home, because the homeowner had no idea they were cops and not home invasion robbers; and in some cases have been acquitted of murder charges by juries for this.

I'd personally like to see the laws protecting this strengthened, to make sure that cops aren't charging unannounced into peoples' homes and then charging the homeowner with murder when they react with reasonable gun violence in self-defense.

I would much prefer a society where all homeowners and cops don't carry guns and cops were fired for illegal raids.

[koonsolo]

No it is not. Europeans can have guns, and there was a recent case in Belgium where such a thing happened.

I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to use your legal firearms against people in Denmark. Even in a home intrusion event.

[Sammi]

This was in Denmark

[varjag]

You can own guns in Denmark as well.

[impossiblefork]

Yes and no.

Weapons are normal here too.

Shooting intruders isn’t though. They’d basically have to attack you first for lethal force to be legal.
