Of course reported by an English newspaper. Way to go Oregonians. "we don't call 911" Sad that a lot of the world can't do this.

The story was picked up by a Fox station in DC. You can see the comments to the story here https://www.facebook.com/myfoxdc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Typical Brit slant.

Vigilante (emphasis-mine) neighbors in Oregon town say they are no longer calling the police and have armed themselves instead.”

Vigilantism is underrated. :evil2:

Do you think British subjects will ever be allowed to defend themselves again?

It's time we took the concept back and cleared the air!

Sounds great, but they just provided "plaintiff's counsel" with excellent evidence for a civil suit if something ever actually happens.
