Bid to curb rock throwing

Definitely not, you would have to shoot him while he throws the rock on your car while driving. Good luck doing that.

You’re welcome to try though.

Does not have to be your car, if they were throwing a rock at you (f2wohf) and someone else shot them to protect you.
 
What if you shot the now unarmed fscker as he's approaching afterwards to plunder? I mean, he has just tried to kill you with a rock and now he's coming at you?

Or take this situation for example. http://newspage.co.za/watch-racial-attack-shop-owner-stabbed/

What if the shop manager pulled out a gun and ventilated this savage after having been stabbed in the back twice? Does shock factor/fight-flight count for nothing?

That person that attacked you still advancing on you I would consider a threat.

If the guy was unarmed.. no you can't. Must be armed to pose a valid threat in the eyes of the law as far as I know.

What if I'm injured and have limited mobility? Obviously the threat will be perceived differently in that instance? No?

Then it’s not self defense by definition (self).
 
Only one way to stop this.

Declare Martial Law and take them out with snipers.

Otherwise we will have to start building cages on cars, like in the Mad Max and other movies.
 
I’m taking the N2 in exactly 10min. If you don’t hear of me anymore, you know what happened.
 
Olifansfontein is a few miles away from Durban no ?

I was just going from the airport to Umhlanga.
 
No, Olifantsfontein is just the other side of Midrand when you are travelling from Johannesburg to Pretoria on the N1.

There have been reports of rocks dropping on cars from there. Last night, I think.

So it's countrywide : Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg, Pretoria, who knows where else ?

Nothing in L or MP yet. NW as well?

So you're saying you can't defend the life of another person or are you just harping on the 'self defence' phrase?

It might fly through with a lenient judge and at a bridge where it happened hundreds of time.

But I certainly wouldn’t try shooting. Neutralizing the thrower would be appropriate, shooting in the leg might potentially be accepted. Killing, simply no.
