Armed pensioner

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

A mother in America can be confident that both the law and her neighbors will support her when she must defend her children and her property. 

A mother in Britain could confidently defend her family too, right? Maybe not.

A 78-year-old Englishman (a "pensioner") who lives with his disabled wife scuffled with two burglars who broke into his home. One of the burglars was wounded and later died. The elderly man who tried to defend his home was arrested on suspicion of murder and later released.

The man and his wife have fled the neighborhood to live in a police safe house somewhere - because they are in danger from supporters of the burglar.
