Legal to Booby Trap Your House?
This video discusses the legality of using booby traps for home defense. The speaker clarifies that while there's a presumption of reasonable fear when someone breaks into your home, setting up preset deadly traps like an M18 Claymore on a Roomba or a shotgun trap at the door is generally illegal. The use of deadly force must be in response to an imminent threat of death or great bodily harm, and preset traps can violate this principle, especially if you are not present.
