Now, I can't search so if this is a repost then I apologise.

I'm not averse to the concept of assertively defending ones home, but this story has more than a hint of "itchy chin" about it.

Farmer misses fox?
Hits scrotes?
Cannabis farm "surprise".

Shooting is my life. I used to shoot every other day – rats, foxes, pigeons, vermin.

I see nothing wrong with that, it's not like he shoot any humans. Just vermin that disturbed his geese. Give the bloke his guns back.

You gotta wonder how that confiscation will stand up on appeal esp as he wasn't charged.
