California does enforce these laws because the court declared, in 2005, that the person did not have to retreat if they thought they were being attacked
Yes.
Castle doctrine in Mississippi refers to the legal principle that allows individuals to use reasonable force, including deadly force, to defend themselves against intruders in their home or dwelling without the duty to retreat. Enacted in 2006, the law recognizes a person's right to protect their property and personal safety when faced with an imminent threat. This doctrine extends to occupied vehicles and places of business as well. The law aims to provide legal protection for individuals who act in self-defense within their own "castle."
Not for simply being on your property, no. A certain set of conditions have to exist before the use of lethal force is authorised. Lethal force may not be used to defend yourself if you were the one who provoked the confrontation. It may not be used to defend against simple assault. There must be an imminent threat of death, maiming injury, or rape. You also have a duty to retreat from a situation of using lethal force if possible to do so. I don't know if Maryland has a castle law or not, but, even if they do, it only removes your duty to retreat when you're actually inside your home or personal vehicle - it doesn't apply to the property outside of your home.
Yes if your asking about deadly force, but not in the person's dwelling or on the curtilage surrounding the person's dwelling if not the original aggressor and only when it can be done safely.
AnswerAs the owner of a property you have a duty to take steps to secure your property and make it safe. You also have an obligation to address maintenance issues that might endanger others.If you know the tree is a threat, you have a duty to remove or mitigate the threat in some way. failure to address a known threat to the safety of others that exists on your property can be construed as negligence. It's a maintenance issue and Home Owners Insurance does not provide payment for maintenance.
to tell someone as soon as possible. Notify authorities, do something to stop it.
The stated case of 'Osman v UK' effectively places a positive duty on the police to consider carefully any threat to life and to take appropriate action to remove or minimise any threat posed.
A heavy duty polyethylene tarp is used to cover a baseball field if there is a threat of rain.

Not for simply being on your property, no. In most states, before lethal force can be employed, there have to be four conditions which must be met. First, an imminent threat of death, maiming bodily injury, or rape. Second, all options to retreat from the situation must be exhausted. Third, it cannot be a situation which was instigated by the person using lethal force. And fourth, it has to be determined that a reasonable person in a stable state of mind would generally agree that it was the last alternative. Oklahoma's castle doctrine removes the duty to retreat in an instance of a person breaking into your home, but it still requires the threat of death, maiming injury, or rape to be present. So, again, Oklahoma does not allow you to shoot someone simply for being on your property.
