Quote:Homicide is justifiable if committed by any person while resisting any attempt to murder such person, or to harm the unborn child of such person in a manner and to a degree likely to result in the death of the unborn child, or to commit any felony upon him or her, or upon or in any dwelling house in which such person is
My reading of it seems to apply it solely to the person being attacked being allowed to kill their attacker. It's only justifiable homicide if you murder your own attacker, not someone attacking Joe Bloggs across the street. If this comes to a test case.... God Forbid.... I'd wonder how a judge would see it? It is 'self' defence, not defence of another....
Might be a goat screw.... it might also be a lot of hot air to keep their supporters happy, while not actually making any effective changes, since you're already allowed to use lethal force in self defence anyway.
