First You Kick the Victim

When is self-defense NOT self-defense? Wherever leftists dominate the legal system. Then if become an affront to the dignity of the thugs that invade your home and attack you and your spouse.

On October 27, at 9:00 A.M. René Dahan, a businessman from Nogent-sur-Marne, was attacked by three hooded criminals as he was getting ready to leave his home. Threatened with a magnum 357, he was struck on the head before managing to wrest the weapon from one of the intruders, who was attempting to strangle him, while his companions were tying up Mrs. Dahan. After firing one bullet that hit the ceiling, Dahan fired three more times, hitting the burglar who stumbled and fell out the window. He died shortly thereafter.

René Dahan was arrested for voluntary homicide and placed in the detention center at Fleury-Mérogis.

Pacifying the innocent, preparing the sheep for the slaughter, emboldening criminals’ motives, making the world safe for crime: it’s a social scientist’s veritable utopia.

Pascal Clement, the Minister of Justice (known as the Keeper of the Seals), indicated that the "deeds attributed to René Dahan do not seem to conform to the notion of self-defense."

Mr. Dahan was being held, but has since been released after the intervention of Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy.

Reports from: Le Figaro (the court is trying to undermine his defense), France 2, etal.

It could be that the blind justice of a lefty judge is only for certain folk who don’t have certain types of personal “baggage” which is incompatible with the world view of the grand and glorious dawning age of Marxism. Mr. Dahan is a middle aged white business man who resisted armed criminals without the aid of a cop, well known to be around when you need one.
