Let me know when you get away with it. Okay?
Let me know when you get away with it. Okay?Depends on the crime. Ever hear of the "fleeing felon" rule?
Acquitted Texas man who shot prostitute after she refused sex was just ‘protecting himself from theft’: court
SAN ANTONIO — A South Texas man has been acquitted in the shooting death of a woman he met on Craigslist as a possible escort. A jury in San Antonio on Wednesday acquitted Ezekiel Gilbert of murder…nypost.com
Actually, I’ve heard that it’s quite common. Ordinarily law abiding poor folks are generally much more willing to commit theft for the sake of their child than they are for themselves. But feel free to look it up yourself.I'd be interested to see the statistics of how often diapers and baby food are shoplifted.
I would venture to guess... 0% of thefts.
Does not matter to me.The article is unclear whether it was his car or his neighbor's car.
I think it fits the crime.But shooting some kids taking a joy ride is excessive.
That is not stealing transportation that can make a difference ion a person's life. What if the guy had a wife that is 9 months pregnant, any moment needing to drive to the hospital? Such delays from a car missing is not acceptable.What's next? Shooting the neighbor because his dog pooped on your lawn?
Does not matter to me, and many others.That anyone has recovered this gun that was supposedly drawn.
That anyone called the police when they saw the robbery was happening.
They are actually a high theft item, as is laundry detergent.I'd be interested to see the statistics of how often diapers and baby food are shoplifted.

If they have kids, they get adequate SNAP benefits. Some people sell their snap for cash.Actually, I’ve heard that it’s quite common.

Congress needs to act. They need to put aside bickering, and partisan politics, and pass a stimulus bill now that can help struggling families.www.scarymommy.com
I guess no sense asking if you read the link then ...If they have kids, they get adequate SNAP benefits. Some people sell their snap for cash.
No excuse.
I do not take reading assignments from those who advocate crime. You need to quote a relevant passage to peak my interest so I do not waste my time.I guess no sense asking if you read the link then ...
You advocate crime - not me. You advocate vigilantism. You advocate shooting people without arrest, trial and conviction. That is a crime, and you advocate that criminality. Not me. By your own words, you are willing to set yourself up as judge, jury and executioner. I am not.I do not take reading assignments from those who advocate crime.

Clearly the 13 year olds thought it was.
How many liberals here believe he should have allowed his car to be taken, called the police, and filed a claim with his insurance?
The man confronted them. The man got the call about someone trying to break into his Honda. Unless the neighbor whose Honda was being broken into called some random "the man" to deal with it. Is this guy the local vigilante or something? I doubt it. Sounds like the owner was contacted and the owner confronted and shot the robbers.The article is unclear whether it was his car or his neighbor's car.

What's next? Shooting the neighbor because his dog pooped on your lawn?
To be fair, the article was unclear as to whose care it was.. "His car" does that mean the man's car or the neighbor's car?
What I'm not hearing.
That anyone has recovered this gun that was supposedly drawn.
That anyone called the police when they saw the robbery was happening.
Well last I checked this guy has not been charged so what's your issue?Let me know when you get away with it. Okay?

Folks, it's robbery, not just "theft." You seem to have a bizarre understanding of American law, believing that deadly action against criminals can only be taken after a trial and conviction. This is not the case. Again I point to the following case:Only in America could the theft of a car by teeneagers result in them being shot.
That's OK that you want to take my viewpoint to the extreme. It just farther reinforces my belief you do not comprehend.You advocate crime - not me. You advocate vigilantism. You advocate shooting people without arrest, trial and conviction. That is a crime, and you advocate that criminality. Not me. By your own words, you are willing to set yourself up as judge, jury and executioner. I am not.
Thieves deserve no mercy.Only in America could the theft of a car by teeneagers result in them being shot.
The lefties are reading and being brainwashed again by their favorite lying media I bet.Well last I checked this guy has not been charged so what's your issue?
Not thieves. Robbers.Thieves deserve no mercy.
Thieves deserve no mercy.
How the hell would you know?That doesnt sound very American.
How the hell would you know?
Nice counterpoint. What is it then, 0.01% ?You'd be wrong.
I used the word "statistics" for a reason. An article doesn't prove anything. You can call me ignorant if you want, but I don't know of a single person who will change their opinion the instant they are introduced to an article that disagrees with it. You can find an article to support just about any opinion you can possibly have.Actually, I’ve heard that it’s quite common. Ordinarily law abiding poor folks are generally much more willing to commit theft for the sake of their child than they are for themselves. But feel free to look it up yourself.

I bet these kids were just stealing the car so they can take it apart and trade the parts for food!Actually, I’ve heard that it’s quite common.
