Shoot A Terrorist

Enough is enough...

Indeed. You're allowed to kill someone in self defence, or the defence of someone else. So nothing to see here.

You are NOT allowed to shoot anyone in defence. as far as I know (and I did research the topic as I want a gun :P)

I'm not sure the south west is high on terrorists' radar anyway. In theory St. Ives in mid-summer would actually be a 'great' target but otherwise it's too far off the beaten track.

By terrorists, do they mean sheep worriers?

It's called "reasonable force". This is old linky but in English Common law you can defend yourself using reasonable force.

So shooting a terrorist if you happen to have a gun legally is reasonable force. The immediate problem you face is that the police would try and take you out afterwards.

Maybe, but if you survive you are facing long and painfull prosecution
