I was at a local restaurant this morning having breakfast when I overheard a guy spewing nonsense at a nearby table with about five guys ranging in age from 55-70. Everyone seemed to want to contribute to the conversation about the upcoming election. One guy talked about someone getting a threatening letter because of a campaign sign in their yard.
That’s when Johnny bad spewed out the macho inaccurate advice. He said “if I get a letter like that I’m going to tell them come on over and we’ll have a party, because in Indiana the Castle Doctrine means I can shoot someone if their outside breaking in my car and I tell them to stop”. He then makes a pretend gun with his thumb and finger and says bang your dead. Looked just like Joe Biden doing his stupid bang thing.
I wanted to yell “You have to be in the vehicle!” But we all have to choose our battles and that was one I didn’t have the time or patience for this morning.
I did a quick lookup for the code
Indiana Code 35-41-3-2 states that, “a person is justified in using reasonable force, including deadly force, against another person and does not have a duty to retreat…if the person reasonably believes that the force is necessary to prevent or terminate the other person’s unlawful entry of or attack on the person’s dwelling, curtilage, or occupied motor vehicle.”
Nothing in my car is worth a human life. Theirs or mine!
