Ironically, I bet you probably would have let them borrow the bike if they had only just politely asked you first.
Absolutely, I don't even use it. Hell pay me $1 a week for 2 months and it's yours. LOL.
OP's wife from now on doing chores at home:
LOL. I like it. Except with a 9mm full of hollow points.
The system does not rehabilitate people, it is designed to give society a short reprieve while they are in prison and then let them back out. They usually return very shortly.
With that being said, I think retaliation is unlikely considering he has some energetic cops in his neighborhood. If it does happen, shoot to kill.
I'm not too worried about retaliation but its always possible, I do have some watchful neighbors that have lived in this area for a LONG time. This isn't typical for my street you could say. If I saw them under my carport, you are correct, game on.
Your not allowed to use deadly force like that for a simple trespass, if said person is attempting to break into the domicile though it's game on.
The cop said I had every right to shoot if I caught him in the act. It's under the roof so it's considered my home. Would I have shot? Hard to say. I haven't seen the kid but if I felt threatened he said, shoot to kill.
