It is less legal to booby trap your house than to shoot and kill a home invader.
Make booby traps legal again!
Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion.He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up, Just as the founding fathers intended
This pasta so old it was invented in the Roman Empire...
Delicious tho
Compromise: Breech loading .50 cal, single shot 45/70 pistol, and a 4 bore shotgun.
Imagine setting up illegal traps that actually helps stop invaders, call the cops to arrest them just to be arrested for those traps
You can't even make traps to capture people without harm(like a room with two doors that locks them inside), but somehow a store can have remote locking doors and it is ok.
