State of Defenseless Regarding the Delegitimizing Role of Symbolic Criminal Law, in an Administrative Action Regarding the Prohibition of Carrying Personally Owned Firearms
This class note presents the authors’ perspective on the state of defenseless regarding the delegitimizing role of symbolic criminal law in relation to the administrative act (Decree) prohibiting the carrying of personally owned firearms. The note explores the issue of crimes against movable and immovable property (assets) affected by criminal acts committed by individuals who possess firearms irregularly, resulting in the deprivation of ownership or rights. These victims find themselves in a vulnerable position as part of an unarmed society, unable to exercise the right to self-defense of their assets due to the prohibition on carrying a weapon for this purpose.
