What is the definition being used for your post?

Hello Dwight,

As an American living in a third world country time capsule for the past 30 years, I just became aware of the phrase “home invasion” on this forum. Not knowing what it was, I goggled it and came up with this definition:

There is no clear definition of “home invasión”. While the use of the term has become common in recent times, it has no legal meaning. There also appears to be considerable variation in what “home invasión” actually means for police, victim and the media. According to one newspaper report (Sydney Morning Herald, 5/11/94) “home invasión” was coined by New South Wales investigators working on Task Force Oak, a specialist Asian crime unit set up in 1991. The term referred to several home raids where Asian families were “terrorised” for money by gangs of three or more people armed with shotguns and knives.
