They seem to offer no protection for people in their own homes suffering domestic violence from their spouse.
They do seem to offer protection to people on the streets pursuing strangers though.
The laws labeled SYG do have some problems that should be fixed, no doubt.
Most of it is good law IMO but there is one area that I see as a very gray area, Domestic Violence. There is an exclusion in there that says something to the effect that you can't shoot someone that lives there.
THAT needs cleaning up.
