When the police aren't allowed to respond and arrest criminals the citizens are forced to become the police.
If some people don't like it, then re-fund the police and enforce the laws of the country.
That's straight up murder.
As much as we say we want to see thieves killed, in a reasonable society that is subject to the rule of law, killing someone for stealing a cat definitely doesn't make sense. We have to be able to control our emotions on this subject because people who want to take our freedoms will point to this shooting (and this thread) to say "look at those irresponsible gun owners etc etc"
That’s all well and good but this is where we are now.
You simply don’t know who your fucking with.
Thieves run across the wrong person all the time.
We cheer when home owners blow their heads off...well...this guy was living in his truck it sounds like. In CA I’ll bet he argues immanent domain no different than someone living in a motor home?
Yeah, dragging the body and dumping it has all the hallmarks of lunacy,..no doubt..but when we say people will have to start defending themselves and their property as CA mayors and governor make the cities and State more criminal friendly by the day, this is what it can look like.
It ain’t always wrapped up in a nice neat body bag.
For those that think the shooter did a good thing. He is now going to live in prison for what is probably going to be a very long time. He will have a small TV, maybe an IPod an electric razor and toothbrush. He won’t be allowed to have his catalytic converter in his cell with him. He is a fucking dumbshit.
He's going to to have a helluva time claiming self defense against a guy who was laying underneath his truck trying to steal a cat.
I may be within the law (in AZ) to shoot someone who is on my property, but I won't be able to sleep at night if I kill some dude trying to take my TV. He will be escorted out of my house at gunpoint, and will be met with fire if there are any aggressive moves, but I'm not shooting someone over my property. My things can be replaced, me having a clear conscious at the end of the day cannot.

The thiefs demise is entertaining, but the guy that killed him isnt too smart.
Id call him downright crazy.
3 Hots and a CotSounds like an upgrade from living in his truck.
Probably get better dope inside as well!

You wrote it as I was thinking it.Justice would have been served just as well using the PRD12 lever swiftly and quickly. Results would have been the same, and less prosecutable offences.

I'd live the rest of my life free in my truck before I served time in prison.Sounds like an upgrade from living in his truck.

You seem to be wanting to debate the rationality of the shooter?
Not everyone is of sound mind and has the capacity of what we consider “normal” thought
I’ve already said the guy was obviously off plumb.
The headline here is “thief meets psycho”!”, psycho kills thief.
He’ll go to the puzzle factory wing.
Any halfway rational person wouldn’t have drug the guy down the street.
Almost as if it wasn’t his first time killing someone.
Couldn’t lift the body so threw a half hitch on and away he went!
It’s easy to say “I’d never give up my boat owning, home owning, family centered, portfolio performing life to kill a thief”...
But you and I aren’t the guy in the truck.
I just had a person I work with at work go through this they went to come in his garage to steal his side-by-side... he shot.bad choice as they had no guns.only way you can shoot is if they’re in your house.So at 2 AM, In The pitch dark, your going to be sure an intruder is there to steal your TV. And not murder you and your family. Please let us all know how you will determine this in a split second in the dark ?
