We can already kill theives who are taking property in this country. If that bothers you so much, well, that makes me smile on the inside.
Assuming they have no weapon is a very stupid mistake.
No. This thief is already dead. I am letting all future potential car thieves know that the potential risk for trying to steal a car is the loss of their life.
Maybe I should shoot out my tires?

This. Anyone involved in a felonoious activity against persons or property should always be viewed as armed. For that matter, the car itself is and can be used as a weapon should the thief choose to use it to run you or someone else over to get away.
So I vote yes.
OK, so you believe that stealing a car is a capital offence?
So you believe stealing should be a capital crime?
Why so?
Well no, the thief doesn't value your money, or your property, they've said nothing about your life, unless (i suppose) if your entire life is the car, either is a life support system of some kind or it took your entire like to earn it.
"that vehicle is an extension of my time" so you value your time higher than the criminals life.
Not automatically, but no complaints if it happens. ya dig? you act like i give 2 shits about thieves.
Why not?

It doesn't and you can't everywhere it depends what state you live in.
It's not an assumption I changed the OP to say that they didn't have a gun and posed no threat.
Errm. To many reasons to list. But now we've established you do, I can move on.
We only have so much time neckbeard and how we use our time is our life. You're separating the two to make some sort of point, when that just doesn't make any sense. I don't have infinite life/time, no one does. That shit is stupid. Since life is not infinite, it has a value. I spend that value, in time, on things like working to afford a car. I am using my time, which is an extension of my life, as currency. I very much value this resource as I only have so much of it and it is one I very much treasure above all else. This makes the things I spend my time on very very valuable.
So when a thief decides to take something from me they are saying "the value I have is more than the value you have". Well the thief must obviously think his time/life are more valuable than mine. If not, why would he have chose his actions of forcibly relieving me of my property?
I treat people like they treat me. If they want to take part of my life away, I'll take the whole of theirs.
Assume it is a car jacking that poses no threat to you or anyone else... also I don't know who this is...
List 5-10. Maybe you can change my mind.
MotionMan
Why?
That's like assuming you're in a crowded snake pit full of cobras that pose no threat to you.
A car jacking is when you are in the car and the thief makes you get out so he can steal it. How is the guy going to jack your car without posing a threat to your life? What... he's going to ask politely for you to get out of the car so he can steal it? And you're going to let him?
Let's get back to reality here...
For a guy who is so intent on not harming anyone you sure seem to take particular delight in torturing logic.
Why should we?
MotionMan
Personal possessions are replaceable.
Human life isn't
People change
No one should have the right to end someone else's life
A thief is just like you but down on his luck.
5 for now.
Assume it is a car jacking that poses no threat to you or anyone else... also I don't know who this is...
Hell no, and the cars owner shouldn't even been able to defend his property any more than saying stop. Thats why we pay taxes, to pay the professionals(police) to handle issues like this.
Yes. All of this Yes.
I disagree there.
HAHAHAHA...you are a funny idiot. I am in Texas, you are getting shot if I have a gun and catch you taking anything of mine.
Because human life is more valuable than any possession.
This is where this was just a troll.
If they were in a life-threatening situation....let them steal.
If they were in a situation threatening your life....leave them dead.
neckbeard, I already explained to you how the car(property) is an extension of my life. If you're just going to ignore that whole spiel and continue on with your bs then I'm done with this thread. Like I said, I will treat them how they want treat me. If they want to take part of my life, I'll take theirs.
