the Colorado legislature is working on a new law that would let businesses operate the same way as residents when using lethal force to defend their place. I would like to see this passed but I am very curious to see how it is written. Can a business owner lie in wait to ambush suspected thieves like that nightclub owner a few years ago? If a unruly patron refuses to leave the premises, can you shoot him?

The logical approach would be that if the patron threatened with deadly force, then deadly force would be an appropriate response.
