You don't know that the guy killed the thief because he was stealing something. It could have very easily turned into a self-defense situation. Besides, your property is the manifestation of your labor. I'm not saying it's worth killing somebody over stuff, but I don't feel bad for a thief who gets killed in the act.Quote:

It could have easily been catching a crime in progress, and the deadbeat scum took to fighting or brandishing a weapon. Death for theft alone is a bit strong, however the criminal assumed that risk when he decided to break the law. If he was stealing, all he had to do was not steal and there wouldn't have been a problem.
If stealing was a death sentence, maybe less folks would steal.... Just saying.Quote:

Homicide is not necessarily murder. It simply means that one person directly caused the death of another.
Agreed that facts are not known. But hearts are being exposed by the posts. I am not only a believer in the philosophy of how society treats it's criminals and the idea of a punishment should equal the crime, I am a benefactor of it. I like the jury system and surely want to see a TRIAL and judgement.
This just gets curiouser and curiouser, the information in the link has been updated....... Watch the video too.

Jeep had a good sticker on it!
I'm curious what really happened. If he was trying to steal the jeep or contents inside, then good riddance,
10 bucks says tweaker OD'd and just happened to be in the middle of a fight with someone who just found the tweaker had broken into his car, when the ol ticker gave up the ghost.
The report in the video says no outward signs of use of a weapon or blunt object.
If that's what happened, then, good riddance, you reap what you sow.
